FAQs for Rain Bird 5004-PC Rotor
How to adjust the Rain Bird 5000?
To adjust your Rain Bird 5000, use a flathead screwdriver or the Rain Bird rotor tool. Insert it into the arc adjustment slot on top of the sprinkler head. Turn it clockwise to increase the spray angle or counterclockwise to decrease it.
How do I adjust the spray pattern on a Rain Bird?
Adjusting the spray pattern involves setting both the arc and the radius. Use the arc adjustment slot to change the spray angle, and the radius screw near the nozzle to control how far the water sprays. Always align the left side of the pattern first, since it’s fixed.
What is the distance control on the Rain Bird 5000?
