Adjusting pop-up sprinklers is relatively easy and requires a few simple steps:
Locate the sprinkler head: The first step is to locate the pop-up sprinkler head that you want to adjust. The sprinkler head should pop up from the ground when the system is activated.
Identify the adjustment screw: Most sprinkler heads have an adjustment screw located on top of the head. The screw controls the distance and angle of the spray pattern.
Turn off the water supply: Before making any adjustments, turn off the water supply to the system.
Adjust the spray pattern: To adjust the spray pattern, turn the adjustment screw clockwise or counterclockwise. Turning the screw clockwise will decrease the spray radius, while turning it counterclockwise will increase it.
Adjust the spray angle: To adjust the spray angle, move the nozzle or riser to the desired position. This will change the direction of the spray pattern.
Turn on the water supply: Once you have made the necessary adjustments, turn on the water supply to the system and test the sprinkler head to ensure it is working correctly.
Fine-tune the adjustments: If the spray pattern or angle is not quite right, fine-tune the adjustments until you achieve the desired result.
It's important to note that some sprinkler heads have additional adjustments, such as flow rate and water pressure, which may require more advanced knowledge to adjust properly. In this case, it may be best to consult a professional irrigation technician.
