I've seen numerous vids on how to set the Hunter rotor right stop and no one explained it better than you. No one mentioned that there is an official Hunter method and an acceptable alternate method. No one said to not use channel locks on the shaft but I always wondered about that. Thank u.

Thank you thank you so very much for your educational video of how to adjust it helped me out so greatly adjusting all the sprinkler heads on my one-block condo property with over 150 sprinkler heads and over 30 different zones. Taking it slow Zone by Zone going around adjusting every single sprinkler had getting the coverage that I need for my big fields and small boulevards. 100% thank you

I've only seen that end stop adjustment on Rain Bird 5000 heads, I'm definitely going to have to try that trick.

Thank you this information. I now see why I am unable to properly, and fully, adjust my sprinklers; I do not have that adjusting tool you showed in the video. Where can I obtain one?

Glad it was helpful!! You can get a pack of 3 on Amazon for about $10, or if your local sprinkler supplier sells hunter then you can purchase a single tool from then!

By saying it reduces the arc makes it sound like you are either increasing or decreasing how far it flows,, I was told the colored nozzles adjusts the arc length

Thanks for watching! For the video we decided to use the actual terms used to describe the parts of a circle since these heads water in a circle (or part of a circle). So the radius of the circle is the length of the spray, and the arc of the circle is what portion of the circle is being watered (such as 90° arc, 180° arc, etc). This is typically the language used by manufactures as well. But I totally understand the confusion! I sometimes think of arc as distance as well (like the arc on an arrow, but then im not thinking in terms of a circle). Sorry for the confusion, we just though if there is going to be confusion one way or another, the technical language would be proper. But well try to make that more clear in future videos. Also you are right, the nozzles change how far the sprinkler shoots (which would be its radius).

What if the right fixed stop is too far to the right? How do you adjust? Thanks!
@SmartIrrigation1
@SmartIrrigation1 2 года назад
Two methods. First try turning the whole head in the ground. If that doesn't work you can remove the inside cartridge from the case by unscrewing it, then reposition it where you want and tighten the cartridge back into the case.

Thank you! I noticed my Hunter PGP will automatically rotate from right to left but then get stuck at the left. If I rotate it a bit more left, it will swing back to the right. However, several heads are sticking to the left (maybe not rotating to the full left stop). What is going on here?
@SmartIrrigation1
@SmartIrrigation1 9 месяцев назад
It sounds like the gears inside these heads are stuck or broken. Since these heads aren't designed to be opened or taken apart, unfortunately it sounds like you will need to replace these heads.

Thank you Chris! I guess my question was, is it possible to use the “unofficial way“ to rotate the shaft COUNTERclockwise if the right stop is too far right. It looks with Rainbird 5000 you can rotate the shaft in both directions when adjusting the stop. What is your experience? Thanks again for your time!
@SmartIrrigation1
@SmartIrrigation1 Год назад
Yes you can. We do it all the time. It's similar to setting a pop-up spray head that way.
@danbryda3849
@danbryda3849 Год назад
When using the unofficial way I presume you don’t have to hold the ribbed part below the shaft when turning…since it won’t affect how it’s secured into the housing?

I thought reducing the arc, means reducing the flow, not how far left it turns till it stops?

My heads are rotating a full 360, it seems.
@SmartIrrigation1
@SmartIrrigation1 2 месяца назад
Some heads are only 360 degree heads, designed to only spray in a full circle. However, if you have an adjustable PGP, you should be able to use the tool and turn it counter clockwise in the adjustment slot to reduce the arc of the circle that it waters. Hope this helps!

So in order to have less right rotation, would I need to spin the head all the way around to the right or can you twist it left?
@SmartIrrigation1
@SmartIrrigation1 Год назад
If you need it to stop sooner in the right direction you would turn the stem or riser (not the top) to the left. Then with the Hunter key reajust the left stop. So twist to left is correct.

How do you turn the head off? I want my system to run but one head is malfunctioning so I am needing to turn off a single head
@SmartIrrigation1
@SmartIrrigation1 2 года назад
Replace the malfunctioning head would be my first choice because there is no easy way to turn off just one PGP. Remove and cap it at the fitting in the ground if no longer needed but be carful because it could affect the coverage.
