i desided on the hunter pro. i got them yesterday and i'm very impressed. thanks guys for all of your suggestions i'm very happy.
No. they are not the same. Close, but not close enough.... I would suggest changing them out to either a Hunter Pro Spray or a Rain-Bird 1800 series Spray. The SRS Series was notorious for this very problem. You want to look for a spray body that offers a slip / click adjustment clutch. It will be the extra plastic piece at the bottom of the spring on the riser / piston body.
one more thought.
yes i do use srs hunter spray, sois either the Hunter Pro Spray or a Rain*Bird 1800 Series spray body same as hunter srs. because i have a good # of the guts the pop up and spring and all of the srs stuff.would i be able to use those in the new spray as a spare part
ok thanks to all. last night i rechecked and notice the inside of the body the groves(tabs) were worn out at the top of the head body unit. i'm sorry i did not understand earlier reply from gregory1420. it would have save me a few days.part of learning thanks again to all
hunter adjustable sprays will sometimes open up more or close if the pressure is high. never use an adjustable hunter spray as a full circle as they tend to "close" under high pressure. they supposedly fixed this problem but i dont believe it as i have had problems from customers who have these heads still to this date.
Are they the Hunter SRS series Sprays? If they are, I would replace the whole thing, not just the internals. Try and go with a Hunter Pro Spray or a Rain*Bird 1800 Series spray body.
ok i finally inspect those pop up and they look ok. i replace the inside of the heads with new popup and spring just in case. i have 5 hunter head with rainbird spray on these zone and two of them everytime a new cycle starts the spray is pointing not in the direction a place them. any help please i'm going insane i can't believe that is happing only on those two heads in all of my 5 zones.
i replace the inside of the pop up one already i'll inspect the all think thanks.
maybe the plastic bottom of the pop up is broken the little tabs in the body maybe there are no tabs left
pop up problem
i have a 4" pop up hunter head it seem and it started not to long ago
that every time it ups up i found the spray in a different position. i manual adjusted with no success.i replace the inside of the head and left the body there.problem still persist.any idea or help will be appriciated thanks in advance. [
