Operazzjoni u Aġġustament
The R-VAN1318 nozzle allows for easy, tool-free adjustment of both arc and radius.
Adjusting the Arc (Spray Pattern)
- Identify Fixed Left Edge: The nozzle has a fixed left edge. To locate it, rotate the nozzle's top collar clockwise until it stops. This is the fixed left stop.
- Adjust Right Edge: While the water is running, hold the fixed left edge in place. Rotate the top collar counter-clockwise to increase the arc or clockwise to decrease the arc. The arc can be adjusted from 45° to 270°.
- Irfinar: Make small adjustments until the desired spray pattern is achieved, ensuring water covers the intended area without overspray.
Adjusting the Radius (Throw Distance)
- Locate Radius Adjustment Ring: The radius adjustment ring is located just below the arc adjustment collar.
- Reduce Radius: To reduce the throw distance, grasp the radius adjustment ring and rotate it clockwise. You can reduce the radius by up to 25%.
- Increase Radius: To increase the throw distance, rotate the radius adjustment ring counter-clockwise.
- Observe Spray: Adjust while the water is running to accurately gauge the throw distance and ensure proper coverage.
Manutenzjoni
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your R-VAN nozzles.
