Adjusting pop up sprinkler heads in 5 steps:


  1. **Activate the head:** Turn on the water to pop up the head (use a hose if disconnected).

  2. **Locate adjustments:** Find the arc screw (often on top) and distance control (nozzle or screw).

  3. **Set the arc:** Use a screwdriver to turn the arc screw—clockwise for a narrower spray, counterclockwise for wider. For part-circle, align the screw with the desired angle marks.

  4. **Adjust distance:** Twist the nozzle inward to shorten the spray, outward to extend it. Some models have a separate distance screw.

  5. **Test and refine:** Run the system, mark dry spots, and readjust as needed.


Always make small changes—overadjusting causes overlap or missed areas.
