Tools You Will Need
- A flat-head screwdriver or your manufacturer’s specific adjustment tool
How to Adjust Your Sprinklers
- Identify your model. Check the brand of your sprinkler head (like Rain Bird or Hunter) to confirm how the adjustment slot looks.
- Turn on your system. Activate the sprinkler zone you want to fix. Seeing the spray pattern helps you make accurate changes.
- Adjust the distance screw. Locate the screw on top of the sprinkler head near the nozzle. Turn the screw clockwise to decrease the spray distance, or turn it counter-clockwise to increase the distance. Make small turns so you do not overshoot your target.
- Fine-tune the arc. Set the spray pattern so the sprinkler rotates exactly where you need it. Use your tool to adjust the arc settings on the head to prevent the water from overlapping into the street or driveway.
