6.4 OSCILLATION SPEED AND COVERAGE
Oscillation speed: The chart shows how many times per minute
the oscillator makes one complete cycle as a function of fl ow.
The higher the fl ow, the faster it oscillates.
For nozzle reach, refer to the operation manual for the specifi c
nozzle. For reach with oscillation, subtract 20% from the distance.

NOTICE
The type of nozzle and fl ow pressure are critical to the coverage area. The graph shows coverage
area based on the movement capability of the oscillating mechanism. Actual coverage will
depend on fl ow, pressure, type of nozzle, angle of fog pattern and wind conditions.
7.0 STORAGE
The monitor may be stored pre-connected to its hose on the optional storage bracket, TFT part number XXL-B. The storage bracket
may be mounted on a horizontal surface, or a vertical surface with the nozzle end pointing down or sideways.
To mount the bracket follow the instructions provided with the bracket kit.
WARNING
The storage bracket is not intended to support the nozzle reaction forces from a fl owing monitor.
