Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly set up your RESTMO 2-IN-1 Garden Hose Nozzle:
- Inspect Components: Ensure all components, including the nozzle and rubber seal gasket, are present and undamaged.
- Prepare Hose: Take your standard 3/4” garden hose and ensure its end is clean and free of debris.
- Insert Gasket: Place the included rubber seal gasket firmly inside the threaded end of the nozzle. This gasket is crucial for preventing leaks.
- Attach Nozzle: Screw the nozzle onto the end of your garden hose. Turn clockwise until it is hand-tight. Avoid over-tightening, which can damage the threads or gasket.
- Check Connection: Turn on the water supply to your hose and check for any leaks at the connection point. If a leak occurs, tighten slightly or re-seat the gasket.
Operating Instructions
Your RESTMO 2-IN-1 Garden Hose Nozzle offers versatile operation for various tasks:
1. Adjusting Water Flow (Thumb Control)
The integrated thumb controller allows for easy adjustment of water flow:
- To Turn On/Off: Push the thumb controller forward to increase flow and backward to decrease flow, eventually turning the water off.
- To Adjust Pressure: Slide the thumb controller to achieve the desired water pressure, from a gentle trickle to a powerful stream.

2. Selecting Spray Patterns (Magic Twist)
Twist the orange bezel at the front of the nozzle to cycle through the four available spray patterns:
- Shower: A gentle, wide spray ideal for watering delicate plants, flowers, and newly seeded areas.
- Mist: A fine, soft mist suitable for seedlings, humidifying, or cooling plants.
- Jet: A powerful, concentrated stream for cleaning hard surfaces like patios, driveways, or vehicles.
- Sprinkler: Transforms the nozzle into a ground-based sprinkler for hands-free, even coverage of lawns or gardens.

3. Using Sprinkler Mode for Hands-Free Operation
To utilize the hands-free sprinkler function:
- Twist the nozzle head to the 'Sprinkler' setting.
- Place the nozzle on a flat surface in the area you wish to water.
- Adjust the water flow using the thumb controller to achieve the desired coverage and intensity.

Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the life of your hose nozzle:
- Cleaning: Periodically rinse the nozzle with clean water to remove dirt, debris, or mineral buildup. For stubborn deposits, a soft brush can be used.
- Gasket Inspection: Regularly check the rubber seal gasket for wear or damage. Replace it if it appears cracked or flattened to maintain a leak-free connection.
- Winter Storage: Before freezing temperatures, disconnect the nozzle from the hose, drain any remaining water, and store it in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from ice expansion.
- Lubrication: If the twist mechanism becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the moving parts.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your nozzle, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Leakage at Hose Connection:
- Ensure the nozzle is securely tightened to the hose.
- Check the rubber seal gasket for proper placement and condition. Replace if damaged.
- Low Water Pressure:
- Verify that the water source (faucet) is fully open.
- Check the hose for kinks or obstructions.
- Ensure the thumb controller is pushed fully forward for maximum flow.
- Difficulty Switching Spray Patterns:
- Ensure the nozzle head is clean and free of debris that might obstruct the twisting mechanism.
- Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if the mechanism feels stiff.
- Inconsistent Spray Pattern:
- Check the nozzle holes for blockages and clean them if necessary.
