Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your sprinkler.
- Clean Filter Screen: Periodically check and clean the filter screen located at the water inlet to prevent clogging from debris. Unscrew the hose connection and remove the screen for rinsing.
- Winterization: In freezing temperatures, disconnect the sprinkler from the hose and drain all water to prevent damage from ice expansion. Store in a dry, protected area.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Low water pressure/short spray distance | Insufficient water supply; clogged filter screen; too many sprinklers connected in series without adequate pressure. | Ensure faucet is fully open; clean filter screen; reduce number of connected sprinklers or use a pressurizer. |
| Uneven spray pattern | Debris in nozzle; incorrect pattern selection. | Check and clear any obstructions from the nozzle; rotate the top cap to ensure the desired pattern is fully engaged. |
| Water leaking from connections | Loose hose connection; worn out washer. | Tighten hose connection; replace rubber washer if damaged. |
