Flushing Sprinkler Heads
1. With sprinkler operating, carefully step down on center of cap several times. Water will flow around riser and flush out debris.
2. Cycle sprinkler on and off several times to check for proper retraction. Cap should be even with top of body flange when fully
retracted. If riser sticks in up position, check for debris lodged between riser and body. Flush out all debris. Remove sprinkler
mechanism if necessary.
Servicing Pilot Valve
Refer to Toro Illustrated Parts Breakout Book, Form No. 368-0044 for parts identification.
