REMOVING THE NOZZLE RETENTION SCREW
Use the Key (A) to remove the nozzle retention screw (B) by turning
counter-clockwise to remove or clockwise to re-install.
PULL UP THE RISER
Insert the Key (A) in the keyhole (C) on the top of the nozzle turret (D)
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 (E). Hold the riser assembly with one hand.
REMOVING THE NOZZLE
With nozzle retention screw removed, the nozzle may be removed by
either turning on the water (wear safety glasses when using this method),
or by pulling outward on nozzle wing (F) with a pair of needle-nose pliers.
INSTALLING A NOZZLE
Press the desired nozzle (G) into the nozzle socket (E). Make sure the
nozzle number is visible and the nozzle wing (F) are up. Then, re-install
the nozzle retention screw (B). NOTE: The nozzle retention screw is also
a break-up screw and used to adjust the distance of the spray.
NOTE: The RPS50 Gear Driven Sprinkler has
a xed right start and an adjustable left stop.
POSITIONING NOZZLE TURRET TO ITS “RIGHT START”
Place your nger on the top center of the nozzle turret (D). Rotate the
turret counter-clockwise to the left stop to complete any interrupted
rotation cycle. Rotate the nozzle turret clockwise to the right start.
This is the xed side of the arc. The nozzle turret must be held in this
position for arc adjustments. The right start does not change.
ADJUSTING THE RIGHT (FIXED) SIDE OF ARC
If the right side of the arc is not properly aligned, sprinkler may
spray in areas not intended for watering such as driveways or
adjacent properties. The right side arc can easily be realigned.
OPTION 1: REPOSITION CAN ON THE FITTING
Turn the housing can left or right to the desired position.
This may require temporary removal of the soil around the
sprinkler to allow you to grip the sprinkler can.
OPTION 2: REMOVE INTERNAL RISER ASSEMBLY AND REPOSITION
Unscrew the top counter-clockwise and remove the internal sprinkler
assembly (J) from the can (K). Once removed with nozzle turret (D) at its
right start, reposition the riser assembly so that nozzle arrow points to
the desired start position. Replace the riser assembly back in the can and
screw on the top. At this point you have realigned the right arc stop, and
you can adjust the left arc to an appropriate setting.

ADJUSTING THE LEFT (VARIABLE)
SIDE OF THE ARC
INCREASING THE ARC
Insert the Key (A) into the arc set adjustment slot
(L). While holding the nozzle turret (D) at the right
start, turn the Key clockwise. Each full 360° turn
of the Key will increase the arc 90°. Adjust to
any arc between 40° and 360°. The Key will stop
turning, or there will be ratcheting noise, when
the maximum arc of 360° has been reached.
DECREASING THE ARC
Insert the Key (A) into the arc set adjustment
slot (L). While holding the nozzle turret (D) at
the right start, turn the Key counter-clockwise.
Each full 360° turn of the Key will decrease the
arc 90°. Adjust to any arc between 40° and 360°.
The Key will stop turning, or there will be a
ratcheting noise, when the minimum arc of 40°
has been reached.
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 top and lift complete sprinkler assembly (J)
out of housing can (K). 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.
