1. Assembling the spray arm
Tighten the black tee into
the top of the motor. Next,
insert spray arms in the
tee as far as they will go,
and then tighten the arm
retainer nuts untiI the
arms feel snug when you
twist them.
2. Pointing
the arms in
the right direction
It is important that the
arms are positioned
correctly; otherwise, the sprinkler won't move
properly or may not move at all.

Once you have the spray arms pointing in the
right direction, adjust the angle of both arms to
throw the water from 15 to 55 feet.
To cover a
narrow 15 foot
path, point the
arms slightly
downward. Spin
the arms in a
clockwise circle
to make sure they
clear the sprinkler.
For maximum
55 foot
coverage,
turn the arms
upward to an
approximate
30 degree angle.
If it is very
windy, position
the arms
horizontally.
Don't point the
arms too far
downward, or
they will hit the sprinkler and get stuck in
one position.
