Before you choose
Use this checklist with the current manual and listing. Borrowing, renting or keeping working equipment may fit the job better than buying.
- Footprint
Sketch grass and paving; decide whether a rectangular, circular or fixed pattern can fit.
- Pressure and hose
Check operating requirements with the hose and fittings you will actually use. Listed maximum coverage is conditional.
- Adjustments
Inspect which controls change width, range or flow on the exact model. More controls help only if you use them.
- Measured delivery
Use matching containers and include zero readings. Adjust coverage before extending runtime; compare with the current sprinkler first.
