Can I set this sprinkler to sprinkle 180*? I want to put it at the edge of the lawn next to the sidewalk, without it sprinkling the sidewalk?

Yes and no. You can set it to 180, but it will still get part of the sidewalk wet. When it sprays, there is a little trickle of "side spray" that comes out in an opposite direction. For example, if the sprinkler is spraying in the direction of 12 o'clock, the little side spray will be spraying in the direction of 8 o'clock. Despite this quirk, I am really happy with the sprinkler. I use it to water my yard at a 90 degree angle and it does well. I just got used to getting the sidewalk a little wet.

Probably so, but be prepared for some 'trial and error' to get it just right.

Yes you may. It is adjustable for almost 360 degrees. You will be happy with it. Joe L.

We use this sprinkler 180 degrees without a problem using the trip arms. If you google "Gilmore sprinkler" they give you more instructions. Hope this helps.

You can set it for the degree that you want. However, because of the design, the "tapping" of the paddle to the water creates an extra "spray" to the side somewhat. I hope I described that in a way that makes sense.

Minimum is 25psi maximum is 100psi. Should work fine w/ two sprinklers. As long as you have a standard 3/4' fitting on hour hose should work fine. I use mine with a splitter.

You can set it so it doesn't swing very far from side to side and set it so the spray goes the longer length. I've got a big yard so I haven't tried to cut it way back, but I think it should work fine. It's a nice sprinkler. It seems to be holding up where most that we've tried don't.

Yes, I'm afraid you do. But you can set the spray angle and distance. I put my spray away at the front edge of my flower bed, facing my lawn (the direction the deer come from). I've got the spray angle set so that I can walk up the edge of my flower bed and not get sprayed (plus there is a delay built in before it goes off). Another option is to put it further out in your yard so that it goes off in the vicinity of where deer enter. They never get close enough to get sprayed, it's the noise and motion of the water that scare them away. So you could try to place it where it won't get in the way of watering your flowers but will scare the deer. BTW, it's easy to turn on and off - one switch. Yes, I'm afraid you do.

I'd read the label. Regular lawn irrigation likely dilutes its potency. It could work but may need to be applied more frequently than the label recommends in sprinkler locations.

Sorry, but I don't know. I will say that this is the best sprinkler I've ever owned, and I've owned many!

Yes. Remember this is a "soaker" not a "sprinkler". Lay soker down the middle with low water pressure[water flow]

I also recommend if the ground is hard from lack of watering/rain; wet the area to soften the dirt before inserting the sprinkler into the hard ground. Forcing it into hard ground could break it.

It is fully adjustable below 360 degrees. However I have never used it on a narrow long strip. Don't know how narrow it will adjust to. It is a great sprinkler head. Bought with a Yard Butler TSS-36 Tripod Sprinkler Stand that is fantastic with this head on it. It puts out a lot of water and should be pretty good on whatever it's minimum width is. On the tower you get quite a distance also.

Aerify Plus can be applied anytime during the growing season. However, it is best to water it in throughly (1/2-1 inch of water) soon after applying it. That could be by sprinkler or before/during a rain. This allows the product to penetrate the soil and go to work immediately. But, it will not hurt the lawn if it doesn't get watered in either. I hope that answer your question. Thank You!

Yes, there is enough length in the water source spigot line and there are no end stops on the hose reel so it can trundle around to 180 (not 360 or you will end up where you started...).

Not sure. It partially depends on your hose. If I were doing that, I'd use something like extra long, wire twist ties (the kind you get when buying some types of fresh vegetables) and tie the sprinkler down to the plant stand to keep it in place. That may or may not be possible with your stand...

There should be no problem using with a sprinkler. The hose is light weight so even the self propelled versions should have no problem with it. The length at 25 feet is a little short for a lawn but okay for flower beds and such close to the spigot.

Check to make sure that the clip on the sprinkler head did not get stuck on the wrong side of the clips. It can jump over one of the clips and get stuck there. Be careful when you move it on the correct side so it doesn't break. It's just operating on the wrong side of the unit.

Turn the toggle to off position then turn on water the hose will expand; put your sprinkler on the end, prepare to get wet when you turn the toggle to on position! :)

A default setting for arc rotation, I have no idea. You will need an adjustment tool to change the range of rotation. I installed my sprinkler system years ago and have about 20 something of these and each one came with an assortment of (red) nozzles. Once installed the rotation limits will need to be adjusted for the proper spray pattern and this is purpose for the adjustment tool. This one I purchased here at Amazon did not include any (red) nozzles or adjustment tool. Hope this helps.

You may use the sprinkler head on the plant stand, however you should clamp it to the stand. You could use a small "C" clamp or even a bungee cord to it to the top. Sometimes the pulsating action will cause the sprinkler to move.
