Introduction _____________________________________________________________________

The 860S and 880S series full circle and adjustable part-circle rotary sprinklers
are designed specifically for golf course applications.

Manufactured from durable, high-strength engineering plastic and stainless-steel
components, the 800S series sprinklers incorporate many innovative and time-
proven features for lasting, maintenance-free operation. 

Prior to installing the sprinkler, read through the recommended installation and
start-up procedures. Please observe all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS when
installing and operating this equipment.
