K-Rain ProPlus Operating manual

REMOVING THE NOZZLE RETENTION SCREW
Use your K-Key or a small at blade screwdriver to remove
the nozzle retention screw by turning counter-clockwise to
remove and clockwise to re-install.
PULL UP THE RISER
Insert the k-Key in the keyhole on the top of the nozzle turret
and turn the key 1/4 turn to insure that the key does not slip
out of the keyhole when you pull it up. Firmly pull up the entire
spring-loaded riser to access the nozzle socket. Hold the riser
assembly with one hand.
REMOVING THE NOZZLE
With the nozzle retention screw removed, insert the K-Key
into the slot directly under the nozzle “prongs” at the top of
the mozzle. Now, turn the key 1/4 turn to “hook” the nozzle
and pull the nozzle out.
INSTALLING A NOZZLE
Press the desired nozzle into the nozzle socket. Make sure
the nozzle number is visible and the nozzle “prongs” are up.
Then, re-install the nozzle retention screw. NOTE: The nozzle
retention screw is also a break-up screw and used to adjust
the distance of the spray.
FINDING THE LEFT START POSITION
Place your nger on the top center of the nozzle turret.
Rotate the turret to the right until it stops and then back to
the left until it stops. Notice the position of the nozzle arrow.
This is the “Left Start” position. The sprinkler will begin
spraying from this position and rotate clockwise until it
reaches the right Adjustable Stop-Return Point.
ORIENTING THE LEFT START POSITION
Insert the K-Key in the keyhole on the top of the nozzle
turret and turn the key ¼ turn to insure that the key does
not slip out of the keyhole when you pull it up. Being careful
not to allow the nozzle turret to turn, rmly pull up the entire
spring-loaded riser. Hold the lower riser assembly up with
one hand. Now turn only the lower riser clockwise or
counter-clockwise until the nozzle arrow is pointing where
you want the sprinkler to begin spraying.
CHANGING THE ARC
Insert the K-Key or a small at blade screwdriver into the
Arc Set Adjustment slot. Turn clockwise to increase the arc
or counter-clockwise to decrease the arc.
WHEN SET AT 360°, THE PROPLUS WILL ROTATE
CONTINUOUSLY IN A CLOCKWISE DIRECTION.

INSTALL AND BURY
Do not use pipe dope. Thread the sprinkler on the pipe. Bury the
sprinkler ush to grade. NOTE: Gear driven sprinklers and pop-up
sprays should not be installed on the same watering zone.
INSPECTING THE FILTER
Unscrew the top and lift the complete sprinkler assembly out of
the housing can. The lter is located on the bottom of the sprinkler
assembly and can be easily pulled out, cleaned and re-installed.
WINTERIZATION TIPS
When using an air compressor to remove water from the system
please note the following:
a. Do not exceed 30 PSI.
b. Always introduce air into the system gradually to avoid air
pressure surges. Sudden release of compressed air into the
sprinkler can cause damage.
c. Each zone should run no longer than 1 minute on air. Sprinklers
turn 10 to 12 time faster on air than on water. Over spinning
rotors on air can cause damage to the internal components.
