Compatibility & Installation Notes
Use a compatible 3/4-inch male NPT connection and flush the line before final nozzle installation. Select the nozzle for available pressure, required throw and zone flow capacity.
The FC model cannot be changed into a part-circle rotor by arc adjustment. Choose a PC model where a sidewalk, fence or other boundary requires a limited arc.
The radius screw reduces throw; reducing radius does not change this model from full-circle to part-circle operation.

Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?
Choose 5004FC for an open lawn position that needs uninterrupted 360° rotation. Its fixed full-circle pattern avoids choosing an adjustable boundary head for a center-of-lawn job, and its 4-inch pop-up with a 7-3/8-inch retracted body helps you check replacement clearance before ordering.
