To determine spray fan, refer to the actual number stamped on the nozzle. The first two digits indicate the spray fan in degrees, i.e.; 00=0°, 15=15°, 25=25°, 40=40°.
INSTALLATION & PREPARATION CHECK wATER INLET STRAINER water supply: 1. Select a water supply hose which is a quality grade of garden hose measuring at least 3/4” ID and no longer than 50 feet. 2 Check the see-through water filter to ensure it is clean and free of any obstructions.
