Constructing Swing Joints
1. Construct or provide triple swing joints for each sprinkler as shown in Figure 1. Use PVC or
ABS pipe nipple for the sprinkler connection.
Note: On sites where the possibility of heavy equipment rolling over a sprinkler exists, the
swing joint will flex preventing damage to the lateral or main lines. On a new installation in raw
ground where the sprinklers are to be initially installed above the finished grade and lowered
when new turf is established, the swing joint allows sprinkler repositioning without changing
risers. This is a common and practical procedure which eliminates the problem of dirt being
accidentally introduced into the lateral lines when a riser is changed.
2. Flush lines thoroughly prior to installing sprinkler.
3. Apply Teflon™ tape on riser threads (not required on ACME threads). Install sprinkler to the
riser and tighten.
CAUTION: Use only Teflon tape on riser threads. Use of pipe dope or other types of sealing compounds can cause
deterioration of sprinkler body threads.
Connecting Control Wires (Electric Models Only)
1. Route control wires to sprinklers. Provide extra wire at sprinkler to allow for height adjustment. One common wire and station wire
is required for each sprinkler. See Wire Sizing Chart, Table 1 for proper application.

System Start Up _________________________________________________________________
WARNING
TO PREVENT POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT STAND OR LEAN DIRECTLY OVER ANY SPRINKLER WHEN
FILLING SYSTEM OR WHEN ACTIVATING MANUALLY AT THE SPRINKLER.
The following is a recommended procedure that will protect system components during system start-up. The procedure is based on a
velocity fill rate of less than 2' (.61 m) per second. See Table 3 below.
1. Use jockey pump only to fill the system at a velocity fill rate of less than 2' (0.61 m) per second.
CAUTION: Failure to comply with recommended fill rate will increase line pressure resulting in a water hammer effect
that could damage sprinklers and piping components.
2. Use quick coupler keys at all tees and greens with quick coupler valves to bleed air from the system lines during the filling
process. For best results, do not compress air and then relieve it – bleed the air continuously while filling the system.
3. After water has filled all lines and all air is removed, remove the quick coupler keys.

Arc Adjustment Procedure ________________________________________________________
WARNING
DUE TO THE HIGH OPERATING PRESSURE, NEVER STAND OR LEAN DIRECTLY OVER THE TOP OF THE
SPRINKLER OR COME IN CONTACT WITH THE SPRAY. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.
The 835S and 855S sprinkler models can be operated in full-circle or part circle operation. In part-circle operation, the sprinkler arc
can be adjusted from 40°– 330°. When full-circle (360°) operation is selected, the sprinkler will rotate in a clockwise direction only. The
arc is factory preset at 180°. The left side of the arc, located at the end of the counterclockwise rotation, is non-adjustable (fixed).
Therefore, all arc adjustments, whether increasing or decreasing, will change the right side of the arc, located at the end of the
clockwise rotation.
Figure 3
1. Using the sprinkler tool, pull the sprinkler riser up from the body. See Figure 3.
2. Find the sprinkler left stop by rotating the turret counter clockwise until it stops. The left
stop indicates the fixed stop of the arc. See Figure 4.
3. Check the left stop alignment with the left most area being irrigated. Adjust by ratcheting
the riser clockwise or counterclockwise until the sprinkler left stop points to the correct
area. See Figure 5.
The turret can also be used to adjust the left stop. If the left stop falls short of the desired
border, rotate the turret counterclockwise until it is aligned with the left watering border.
See Figure 4.
If the left stop exceeds the border, rotate the turret clockwise until the right stop. Continue
to advance the turret the same distance that the left stop exceeded the border.
See Figure 6.
4. Find the sprinkler right stop by rotating the turret clockwise until it stops. See Figure 6.
Note: If the sprinkler is set at 360° (full-circle), it will rotate clockwise only.
5. Adjust the arc while the turret is pointing at the right stop. Hold the sprinkler riser firmly while pressing the release on the
adjustment band. Rotate the turret counterclockwise or clockwise to the desired right stop. See Figure 7.
6. Activate the sprinkler to check proper arc setting and adjust as necessary.
Adjustment Band Angle Indicators

Figure 7
The adjustment band of the 835S and 855S have markers at predetermined arcs. By aligning the adjustment band indicators to the
turret arrow, you can set the sprinkler arc to 90°, 180°, 270° or 360°.

Pilot Valve Operation (Electric Models Only) __________________________________________
The main function of the pilot valve is to control the operation of the main
valve located in the base of the sprinkler body. The main valve is operated
by the release of water metered through the pilot valve when it is activated
either manually at the sprinkler or by the irrigation system controller.
Figure 9
100 PSI
(7.0 kg/cm2)
Another important function of the pilot valve is to regulate the water
pressure to the sprinkler nozzle. Pressure regulation compensates for large
variations within the system and maintains a constant pressure for optimum
sprinkler operation. The pilot valve is factory set to regulate one of four
pressure levels 50 psi (3.4 bar), 65 psi (4.5 bar), 80 psi (5.5 bar) or 100
PSI (6.9 bar).
80 PSI
(5.6 kg/cm2)
65 PSI
(4.6 kg/cm2)
Change the pilot valve operating pressure by loosening the nut that
secures the selector lever. Position the selector lever to the desired
operating pressure and hand-tighten the nut. See Figure 9.
50 PSI (3.5 kg/cm2)

Flushing Sprinkler ________________________________________________________________
WARNING
NEVER STAND OR LEAN OVER THE SPRINKLER WHILE THE IRRIGATION SYSTEM IS BEING FILLED, DURING
MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC OPERATION OR WHEN PERFORMING SPRINKLER SERVICE PROCEDURES. DIRECT
CONTACT WITH IRRIGATION SPRAY, A FAILED OR IMPROPERLY INSTALLED SPRINKLER CONNECTION OR
SPRINKLER COMPONENTS FORCIBLY EJECTED UPWARD UNDER PRESSURE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
1. With sprinkler operating, carefully step down on center of cap several times. Water will flow around riser and flush out debris.
2. Cycle sprinkler on and off several times to check for proper retraction. Cap should be even with top of body flange when fully
retracted. If riser sticks in up position, check for debris lodged between riser and body. Flush out all debris. Remove sprinkler
mechanism if necessary.
