Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the site requires a complete circle. FC is the dedicated full-circle model; it does not provide the adjustable 40–360-degree arc of a PC model.
Match the 3/4-inch male NPT supply connection and check retracted body clearance. Flush the line before installing and select the nozzle for pressure, flow and head spacing.
For Plus flow shut-off, insert a flat-bladed screwdriver in the flow shut-off slot. Turn clockwise 180 degrees to stop water and counterclockwise 180 degrees to resume it, as directed in the 5000 instructions.
Set reach with the nozzle-retention screw and check actual overlap while the zone operates. Reducing reach by interrupting the stream can affect distribution.
This configuration does not include PRS pressure regulation. Choose a SAM configuration when low-head drainage control is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I set this rotor to a partial circle?
No. 5004+FC is a dedicated non-reversing 360-degree full-circle model. Choose a PC model for an adjustable part-circle arc.
What does Plus flow shut-off do?
It lets you stop water at this rotor head with a screwdriver while the rest of the zone continues operating.
Does this model include SAM?
No. This configuration does not include SAM. Choose 5004+FCSAM when the installation needs that drainage control.
Is pressure regulation included?
No. The Plus flow shut-off feature and the SAM option are separate from PRS pressure regulation. Select a PRS model when the irrigation design requires it.
Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?
Choose 5004+FC for open turf that needs a dedicated, non-reversing 360-degree pattern. Its 4-inch pop-up and 3/4-inch female NPT bottom inlet help match a replacement, while Plus flow shut-off lets you stop water at the individual head during zone operation. Choose a PC model for a boundary requiring a smaller arc, or 5004+FCSAM when low-head drainage control is also needed.
