In this video, we’re going to discuss a few of the features of the K-Rain SuperPro Non-Potable Adjustable Rotor and show you how to change out a nozzle and make some adjustments. I’m Dwayne Smith your Sprinkler Warehouse Product Specialist. Let’s get started.
SuperPro Features
This is the K-Rain 10003 Super Pro Rotor. This one has a purple top and collar to indicate that reclaimed water is in use. Many local jurisdictions and water districts require irrigation equipment to be marked with the color purple so that anyone working on the system will know that the water is not suitable for drinking and may contain contaminants. This rotor has a pop-up height of 5 inches and it has a 3/4″ inlet.
The SuperPro is both an adjustable pattern rotor and a continuous 360-degree rotor in one. You can set the pattern anywhere from 40 degrees to 360 degrees. When you set it to 360 it goes around in a continuous circle. The way you set the pattern on this is incredibly cool. Using this rotor tool or a flat head screwdriver, point this arrow to the pattern width you need.
Arc Memory Clutch
Completely straightforward with no guessing. The SuperPro has an Arc Memory Clutch, which Prevents internal gear damage and returns the rotor to its prior setting automatically if the nozzle turret is forced out of adjustment.
Flow Shutoff
Another added feature is the flow shut-off capability, which allows you to shut off the flow of water to the head while the system is still in operation. Allowing you to do some maintenance on the head without having to turn off your system.
It’s also perfect for new construction to water areas where sod has already been laid AND you can shut off the heads where the sod has not yet been installed. It has a watering distance of 28 to 49 feet depending on the nozzle installed and how the adjustment screw is set. This rotor comes with this set of nozzles.
Pattern Control For Your Sprinkler System
Let’s talk about the various adjustments. Looking at the top of the rotor This is the pull-up slot. Put your tool in like this. Turn and pull up. This is the arc Adjustment Slot. Where you set your pattern. And this is your flow shut-off slot. And this raised area is where you access the nozzle retention screw. Let’s go look at this rotor in action.
How To Use The K-Rain SuperPro Adjustable Rotor
We’re going to start by changing out a nozzle. We could pull up the riser with the tool, but it’s easier to just run the zone, and turn off the water to the head with the flow shut-off slot. Here let me turn the turret so you can see the nozzle. Back out the nozzle retention screw to get it out of the way of the nozzle. Pull out the nozzle with a pair of needle-nose pliers. Put in the new nozzle. There’s a little divot where the nozzle accepts the nozzle retention screw. That part goes up. Push in the nozzle. Now screw the nozzle retention screw back down. And I’m going to turn the turret away from the camera before I turn on the water. The camera guy hates it when I make the rotors spray the camera. And him. Adjust your watering distance by turning the nozzle retention screw. You want the stream of water to reach the next rotor over. That’s called the head–to–head coverage. Set the arc by turning the slot right in the center of the rotor. So that’s the K-Rain SuperPro Adjustable Rotor. Buy some K-Rain Super Pros on Sprinkler Warehouse dot com today.
