Usage and Maintenance Guidelines
Correct Installation: Ensure the CT-1 impact sprinkler is installed vertically with a sturdy riser to prevent tipping.
Pressure Matching: Verify that the system water pressure is within the sprinkler's rated operating range before use.
Regular Cleaning: Clean the nozzle and deflector regularly to prevent clogging or jamming caused by sediment and debris.
Lubrication and Inspection: Periodically apply lubricant (e.g., grease) to the rotating parts. Check the spring's elasticity, ensure the impact arm is not loose, and verify that the reversing mechanism (trip block) operates smoothly.
Off-Season Storage: Drain all water from the sprinkler and piping during winter or extended periods of non-use to prevent frost damage.
