Installation & Maintenance Tips:

- Radius Reduction: Use the stainless steel radius reduction screw to decrease the throw by up to 25% without changing the nozzle.
- Spring Cleaning: Periodically check the top of the rotor for grass overgrowth or debris that may hinder the pop-up action or block the nozzle flow.
Common Uses/Applications:
- Residential Lawns: The perfect choice for medium to large turf areas requiring consistent, head-to-head coverage.
- Commercial Landscapes: Durable enough for light commercial sites, schools, and parks where heavy foot traffic is expected.
- New System Installs: Buying by the case is the most cost-effective way to outfit a multi-zone irrigation system with professional-grade gear.
Common Questions:
- Q: Does this model include the SAM check valve?
- A: The 5004-PC is the standard model. If you require a built-in check valve to prevent low-head drainage, please look for the 5004-PC-SAM variant.
- Q: Can I adjust this while the water is running?
- A: Yes, you can adjust both the arc and the radius while the sprinkler is in operation to see the immediate effect on your spray pattern.
- Q: What is the benefit of the Rain Curtain nozzle?
- A: It prevents "misting" in windy conditions and ensures that the grass immediately surrounding the head gets watered, eliminating the brown rings often seen around older rotors.
With its rugged construction and industry-leading water distribution, the Rain Bird 5004-PC 20-Pack Case is the perfect solution for achieving a professional-quality irrigation system with maximum efficiency.
