FIG 5  - ZN, ZM and Masterstream Nozzle Stream Trajectory

4.0  FLUSHING DEBRIS

Debris in the water may get caught inside the nozzle. This trapped material will cause poor stream quality, shortened reach and 
reduced fl ow. To remove debris trapped in the nozzle:

         1)  Shut off fl ow to the nozzle.

         2)  Move the stream shaper to the wide fog position.

         3)  For ZN Nozzle: Unscrew baffl e using a 1-1/8 inch (28mm) socket.

 

For ZM Nozzle: Unscrew the bolt using 7/8” socket and remove baffl e.

 

For Masterstream Selectable Gallonage Nozzle: Turn fl ow selector on front of nozzle to “FLUSH” position.

 

For Masterstream Fixed Gallonage Nozzle: Remove nozzle to gain access to debris.

         4)  Remove debris. Flow water to fl ush if necessary.

         5)  Reassemble the nozzle. Tighten the baffl e on the Max Lite nozzle to 30 ft-lbs (40 newton-meters).

WARNING

Large amounts of debris may be unfl ushable and can reduce the fl ow of the nozzle resulting in 
an ineffective fl ow. In the event of a blockage, it may be necessary to retreat to a safe area.

5.0  MAINTENANCE

Nozzles must  be checked regularly to assure proper operation. Contact factory for parts lists and exploded views for particular 
models.
