Why is my impact sprinkler not rotating?
Water pressure that is either too low or too high can cause sprinkler head jamming. If water pressure is too high, it may also cause the sprinkler to stop or jam. If a sprinkler is moving through its cycle very quickly, this is a sign that the pressure may be too high and you should turn it down.
Why is my sprinkler getting stuck?
The most common cause of a stuck sprinkler head is dirt and debris. If dirt, rocks, leaves, or grass gets caught between a sprinkler body and the sprinkler riser, it can clog up the works and stop the riser from sliding back into the body. Resulting in a sprinkler head that won’t go down.
Can you adjust sprinkler heads?
Fortunately, adjusting a spray head is pretty simple, in most cases. At the top of most spray nozzles is a small screw that is used to adjust the head itself. Using a small screw driver, you’ll need to either tighten or loosen this adjustment screw to achieve your desired results.

Impact sprinkler heads are usually sold in a couple different materials—plastic and metal. Plastic heads are lightweight, making them easier to turn with a conservative water flow of around 20-40 psi. While they tend to be slightly more expensive, metal heads will be better able to handle the strain of higher pressures.
How does an impact sprinkler system work?
