Telîmatên Sazkirinê

Follow these steps to properly install your Orbit Cut-Off Sprinkler Riser Extension:

  1. Identify Sprinkler Head: Locate the sprinkler head that requires height adjustment or replacement.
  2. Excavate Around Sprinkler: Carefully dig around the existing sprinkler head to expose the connection to the lateral line or swing pipe.
  3. Remove Existing Riser/Sprinkler: Unscrew the current sprinkler head and any existing riser from the irrigation fitting.
  4. Determine Required Length: Measure the additional height needed for your sprinkler head to clear the surrounding landscape. The Orbit Cut-Off Riser Extension can be cut to fit.
  5. Cut the Riser Extension: Using a suitable cutting tool, cut the riser extension to your determined length. The male threads are designed in 1-inch increments for easy and precise cutting. Ensure a clean, straight cut for optimal threading.
  6. Thread onto Fitting: Hand-thread the cut-off riser extension onto the exposed irrigation fitting (e.g., swing pipe elbow). Ensure a snug fit to prevent leaks.
  7. Attach Sprinkler Head: Thread your sprinkler head onto the top of the newly installed riser extension.
  8. Test and Backfill: Turn on your irrigation system to check for proper operation and any leaks. Once confirmed, carefully backfill the soil around the sprinkler head.

Lênerrînî

The Orbit Cut-Off Sprinkler Riser Extension requires minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the riser and sprinkler head for any signs of damage, cracks, or leaks. Due to its UV-resistant HDPE construction, it is designed to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight and outdoor elements. If any damage is observed, replace the affected component to maintain system integrity.

  • Leaks at Connection Points: Ensure all threaded connections are hand-tightened securely. If leaks persist, disassemble, clean threads, and re-thread carefully. Consider using plumber's tape for a better seal if necessary.
  • Sprinkler Head Still Too Low/High: Re-evaluate the required length and adjust the cut-off riser extension accordingly. Remember to cut in 1-inch increments.
  • Difficulty Threading: Ensure threads are clean and free of debris. Do not overtighten, as this can strip plastic threads.
