Do different color jets alter the throw of the G800 pop up

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
May 25, 2025

Yes, different color jets (nozzles) affect the throw distance of the Hunter G835 pop-up sprinkler. The G80 riser used in the G835 model has three color-coded nozzles: black (short-range), blue (mid-range), and one for long-range. Each color represents a nozzle with a different throw distance.

    RiSeR filTeR SCReen SeRViCing – All TTS RoToRS the riser filter screen is located at the base (bottom) of each riser. the purpose of the filter screen is to prevent entry of debris that are too large to exit the riser through the nozzles. If the filter becomes clogged with debris, water flow through the riser can be severely reduced and lead to diminished sprinkler performance. to remove the filter screen, locate the notched recessed area located on the outside where it meets the bottom of the riser (fig 54, 55, 56). Insert the snap-ring tool or a flat bladed screwdriver into the recess and then twist to lift the filter screen from its position against the riser.

  • Page 29: Inlet Valve Removal, Service And Installation

    It is important to note that there are different types of inlet valves (also commonly known as foot valves). If the incorrect inlet valve is installed, the rotor will malfunction. Hunter has a color-coding system to help correctly identify these valves: g800c check-o-Matic rotors = black screen attached to valve (fig 72) g800e electric V.I.H.

This pressurized piping must be depressurized before servicing the inlet valve. Serious bodily injury can occur if valve is removed when the piping is pressurized. Keep head and body parts away from the rotor’s exposed internal openings at all times.

  • Page 34 to remove the inlet valve, it is necessary to align the pointer arrow on the g900 Valve tool with the alignment dot on the rotor’s flange. The alignment dot is centered on the flange compartment lid adjacent to (next to) the body cavity opening. A second alignment dot is located below the lid in case the flange compartment lid has been removed. align the pointer arrow on the tool with the alignment dot (fig 94) and lower the tool into the rotor’s body (fig 95). as the g900 Valve tool is lowered into the rotor’s body, recessed areas on the black plastic part on the tool will engage vertical rails inside the body wall.

    Solenoid & PiloT VAlVe ASSeMbly ReMoVAl In order to work on the solenoid or the pilot Valve, it is first necessary to remove the connected solenoid and pilot Valve assembly from the flange compartment. Prior to removal, take note of the orientation of the fittings and tubing that are attached to the pilot Valve. this will help with final assembly later. To remove the Solenoid and Pilot Valve from the flange compartment, grab the Solenoid and wiggle it back and forth while lifting upwards (fig 130). Pull the Solenoid and Pilot Valve assembly up and on top of the rotor’s flange (fig 131).

    PiloT VAlVe RePlACeMenT See the warning above regarding rotor activation when Solenoid is loosened or Pilot Valve tubing is disconnected. there are no serviceable parts within the tts rotor’s pilot Valve assembly. If the filter inside the pilot Valve becomes obstructed, the water flow through the Pilot Valve can be reduced. A substantial reduction in water flow through the pilot Valve will prevent the rotor’s Inlet Valve from opening fully.
