Avoid stripping the gears in your RainBird 5000 Series Rotor Sprinkler Heads by never turning the turret against the turn. Sean Stefan from Sprinkler Daddy ( http://www.sprinklerdaddy.ca ) explains that if you start turning from the left fixed edge to the right, never go back to the left until you've gone all the way to the right. If you don't follow these guidelines you run the risk of stripping the gears in your Rain Bird 5000 Series sprinkler heads.
