MP Rotator Series: How to Adjust Hunter's MP Rotator
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Adjusting the arc and radius of an MP Rotator is an easy task. There are two adjustments, arc and radius, that can be made on an MP Rotator.
Arc: The degrees of coverage of a sprinkler from one side of pattern to the other. A 90-degree arc would be a quarter-circle sprinkler. In other words, how far to the left and to the right the sprinkler will be adjusted to rotate.
Radius: The distance of throw from the sprinkler head to the furthest point of water application.
Note: The left edge indicator on new models has a line, but it is no longer a white line. And there is an indentation just below the line to indicate the left side as well

I have used these on my lawn rather than sprays and love them. 12' x 24' rectangle of turf. I tried RB U series nozzles and it just wasn't cutting it. I replaced them with the MP Rotators and what a diference it made. Precise water and works better in the wind too.
I have the same nozzels, but I have the opposite problem to Rob, I can adjust the radius, but the arc doesn't change.
Can you adjust the arc and radius on the side strip nozzles?
I have a runaway nozzle. It rotates very fast unless I hold it with a finger. I've had these intalled for two summers and it worked fine until this spring. The filter is clean. Suggestions?

I have three of the MP Rotator (90--210) nozzles and cannot get the arc down to 90 degrees; I even sent one back thinking it was defective...but now realize its all of them. Anyone else have these issues??

Please email our tech support team for help with this. Email support@hunterindusries.com. In the email please explain how you are adjusting the MPs.
Hi Hunter Industries, I have a handful of 90-210 degree 3000 (blue) nozzles that won't let me adjust their radius. I turn the screw clockwise with the tool (like in this video) and the radius does not decrease; it remains at the maximum distance. Some in the same zone adjust just fine, while others don't. Any tips for me? Thanks.

Same issue with the 1000's radius never decreases.
You need to say that when adjusting the radius screw with the tool, hold the nozzell steady with the other hand. Otherwise, it just turns.

Noted. Thank you for your feedback and watching!
is there a way to complete turn the rotators off. I want certain section from the rotators to stop watering without having to move the rotators on my lawn. Is that possible ?

The MP Rotator does not have the ability to be completely turned off. You have two simple options to eliminate a spray head with an MP Rotator. We have a shut-off nozzle and shut-off cap for the spray head. Shut Off Nozzle - 916400SP Shut Off Cap - 213600SP www.hunterindustries.com/support/sprays-capping-head
The MP1000 rotators I just bought do not have the right line for the left edge. This is annoying for initial set up.

I’ve noticed the same thing. However, there is a flat side near the bottom where the nozzle threads onto the pop up. Works perfectly to line it up.
Where do I get the adjustment tool? I’m in Calgary, Alberta

I got mine at Home Depot.
I did a 4 full turn clockwise and 4 full turn counter clockwise and i didn’t see any difference of radius range. The nozzle are installed in a PRS40 Thoughts?

Good question about adjusting the MP Rotator. Please remove the MP from the spray body and inspect the nozzle. Perhaps there is some debris inside the nozzle preventing it from adjusting. Additionally, make sure when you are adjusting the nozzle that the MP Tool is in the slit for the set screw. They are tiny pieces. Perhaps there is some debris in that slit and the tool and set screw are not making contact.

Same issue on all new mp 1000's, radius will not adust???
Do you have to use the tool to adjust it? Because I did mine with some pliers and a screwdriver.

You can use those tools to adjust it when it is running. It may be more difficult to do this though, and you may damage the MP though. Better to use the MP Tool. Use this link to find a distributor near you who can sell you the tool. www.hunterindustries.com/distributors-in-north-america

You show how to adjust the angle and distance of the nozzle, but what about the direction of the nozzle? 🤔
I don’t understand the math. The 2000 goes from radius of 13-21 feet. But 21 - 25% = 15.75 feet. Am I missing something?

The reduction radius of 25% is approximation adjustment. Its not an exact science. What radius of distance do you need to achieve your irrigation design for head coverage? Thank you again for contacting Hunter Technical Support. Please let us know if we can offer any other assistance.
