2. Configurare
The Hunter PGP 05-17200 Rotor Nozzle Adjustment Tool requires no assembly. It is ready for immediate use upon removal from its packaging.
Before making adjustments, ensure the sprinkler system is active and the specific rotor or spray head requiring adjustment is operating. This allows for visual confirmation of the spray pattern and arc.
3. Instrucțiuni de utilizare
The adjustment tool is used to modify the arc (the degree of rotation) and radius (the distance of water throw) of compatible Hunter sprinkler heads.
3.1. Identifying Adjustment Points
Hunter rotors typically have two main adjustment points: one for arc adjustment and one for radius adjustment. Consult your specific Hunter rotor or spray head manual for the exact location of these points. The adjustment tool is designed to engage these specific slots or screws.

- Insert the Tool: Carefully insert the key end of the 05-17200 tool into the arc adjustment slot.
- Adjust the Arc:
- La crește the arc, turn the tool clockwise.
- La scădere the arc, turn the tool counter-clockwise.
3.3. Radius Adjustment
- Locate the Radius Adjustment Screw: This is often a screw located near the nozzle.
- Insert the Tool: Use the appropriate end of the 05-17200 tool (often the pin on the opposite end of the key) to engage the radius adjustment screw.
- Adjust the Radius:
- La crește the radius (throw distance), turn the tool clockwise.
- La scădere the radius, turn the tool counter-clockwise.
