GARDEN ENFORCER™
MOTION ACTIVATED SPRINKLER
Congratulations on your purchase. Garden Enforcer™ is a great
watering and pest deterrent solution for your garden that includes
features not found on most competitive products. Situated on a
sturdy tripod base, the Garden Enforcer™ allows you to adjust from
25" to 48" according to plant growth. Simply attach the Garden
Enforcer™ to a standard garden hose and watch it work. An infrared
motion sensor detects animals from up to 40' away and uses a
powerful combination of noise, spray, and motion to keep your
garden safe. Plus, you can use your Garden Enforcer™ as a timed
sprinkler. The following manual will walk you through the basic setup
and functionality of your Garden Enforcer™.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR GARDEN ENFORCER™
The sensor detects the combination of both heat and movement
to activate the valve.
The sensor unit swivels left and right for easy directional adjustment.
Face the sensor unit up or down by loosening the attachment knob,
moving it into place, and then re-tightening the attachment knob.
STEP 1: INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
1. Verify the operation dial is in the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the battery tray on the back of the sensor by sliding
it out. Battery tray is waterproof. You may need to use a
screwdriver to push on the tab and slide the compartment out.
3. Insert four AA (1.5V) alkaline batteries (not included) as directed
in the tray and replace the tray.
Note:
Do not mix old and new batteries.
Use only alkaline batteries.
SENSOR ADJUSTMENT KNOB
• Turn knob towards the + to increase the distance
the sensor monitors.
• Turn knob towards the – to decrease the distance
the sensor monitors.
30 MIN. WATER CYCLE BUTTON
• Press button to activate a 30 minute watering cycle.
• Press button again to stop the 30 minute watering cycle.
• A slight delay allows the user to move a safe distance
away from the unit before watering begins
IMPACT SPRINKLER OPERATION
ADJUSTING THE PATTERN
Determine where you want the stream of water to go and position
a friction collar to the left and right of that area. Place the trip pin
in-between the two friction collars in the down position. If you want
to water in a 360º circle push the trip pin to the up position.
ADJUSTING THE DISTANCE OF SPRAY
There are two ways to reduce the distance of the spray.
1. Screw diffuser pin into stream.
2. Press down deflector shield and turn distance control knob.
GARDEN ENFORCER™ TIPS AND TRICKS
Position the sensor and sprinkler in the direction of where the pest
enters the yard to chase them away before they reach the plants
and landscaping you are protecting.
Certain animals are intelligent enough to recognize the pattern
and range of the Garden Enforcer™ and learn how to avoid the
spray. Occasional adjustments may be necessary to continue to
discourage these animals.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Water is leaking from joints.
Check if:
• Connections and swivel couplings are tight.
• Rubber washer is missing, pinched, or damaged
and replace if needed.
Sprinkler won’t activate.
Check if:
• Operation dial is set to appropriate time of day.
• Valve cable is connected to sensor unit.
• Batteries are low and replace if needed.
• Hose faucet is on.
Sensor not detecting movement.
Check if:
• Range adjustment is set too low and adjust range if needed.
• Angle of sensor on mounting arm is too steep and adjust
sensor angle if needed.
• Object in front of sensor is moving and producing heat.
• Intelligent Sensing increases the delay between activations.
Deactivate Intelligent Sensing mode if desired (see Intelligent
Sensing section).
• There is dust, dirt or hard water build-up on the white lens
which will limit sensitivity. Wipe the lens gently with a
damp cloth if needed.
Sprinkler is activating without movement.
Check if:
• Sensor is detecting tree movement with the sun behind the tree.
• Activate Intelligent Sensing mode if desired.
• Sensor is being triggered falsely. Ensure sensor is not pointed at
moving objects, such as water or windy areas.
Sprinkler is taking longer to turn off.
Check if:
• Batteries are low and replace if needed.
Working Water Pressure
Minimum: 20 PSI
Maximum: 100 PSI
(If you have high water pressure, Orbit® recommends adding
a pressure reducer to increase hose life).
Working Temperature
Maximum: Do not operate at temperatures exceeding 120°F.
Minimum: Keep from freezing. To prevent damage from freezing
water, take the Garden Enforcer™ inside and remove the battery
before the first winter frost.
Warnings
For outdoor use with cold water only. Do not aim the sensor directly
at the sun, as this will cause damage to the sensor and limit the
effectiveness of the unit.
Improper setup or use of sprinklers increases the risk of water
damage to property. Limit the supply of water to the sprinkler
by opening the valve to a ¾ turn position. Use high quality hoses
and maintain pressures within the working pressure range stated
above. Install a pressure reducer if you have high pressure from
the hose faucet. Do not apply pressure or weight on the sensor
housing or sprinkler.
STEP 2: ASSEMBLING YOUR GARDEN ENFORCER™
1. Expand the legs of the tripod to ensure stability.
2. Thread the valve onto the tripod.
3. Thread the ¾" FHT x ½" FPT adapter onto the valve.
4. Thread the impact sprinkler onto the ¾" FHT x ½" FPT adapter.
5. Slide the control unit onto the square bracket on the side
of the valve.
6. Plug the valve cable into the control unit.
STEP 3: OPERATING YOUR GARDEN ENFORCER™
1. Attach an outdoor hose to the connection on the tripod.
2. Position the tripod in your chosen location, adjust the tripod
legs until sprinkler head is at your desired height.
3. Make adjustments to the impact sprinkler head so, when activated,
the spray is in the direction of the desired coverage zone (see
section "Adjusting The Pattern").
4. Adjust the duration of the spray by turning the duration adjustment knob.
5. Adjust the range of the sensor by turning the range adjustment knob.
6. Set the operation dial to your desired position.
7. Turn on water.
8. Make further adjustments to the impact head, tripod, spray duration,
and sensor range as needed to fine-tune the enforced area.
The Garden Enforcer™ is programed with Intelligent Sensing.
This feature automatically increases the time between each of the
valve activations to prevent overwatering. Turn this feature off by
rotating the dial to “OFF” and holding the 30 minute water Cycle
Button for 20 seconds. The sprinkler will activate briefly to confirm.
Repeat the above steps to turn Intelligent Sensing back on.
