Can you clearly answer how to REDUCE the right side stop position. I understand it is not possible by RapidSet or key. But 2 other people already asked the same questions. Clearly it is possible...the installers do it. (The instructions that come with the Toro also avoid talking about this.)
To move the right stop further to the left, turn the turret to the right in a near full circle until you reach the desired stopping point. If you go too far, just keep turning it in a circle to the right until you get it where you want it.
What happens when it is in the wrong start position....like if it is further then it needs to go for start position. How do we subtract the start position?
Just continue turning until you reached the desired right stop. Here are the instructions from Toro. Thanks for watching! www.toro.com/~/media/Files/Toro/professional-contractor/Rotors/T5-RapidSet-Series/t5_instructions.ashx
@@ewingoutdoorsupply 1:12 This is very frustrating. I have watched six different videos now and none of them (yours included), nor the instructions you link say how to adjust if the RIGHT STOPPING POINT needs to be narrowed. Right now my system goes too far to the right. I got so excited when your video said: Make sure you set the right stopping point first. Then you, too, only showed how to INCREASE the right edge. This is driving me crazy. Nothing I do changes the right stopping point.
If the right stop is too far to the right, continue to turn the turret to the right (almost a full circle) until you reach the desired right hand stopping point. Then set the left stopping point. To clarify, if you think about it as a clock face, if you want the right stop to be at 12 but it's currently sitting at 1, turn the turret clock-wise until the nozzle points at 12.
My screw in the top hole (where the arrow points for the direction of the spray) won't stay in. Apparently all the threads are stripped in the sprinkler. So the screw just drops through. What can I do to fix this without buying a new sprinkler head?
You would need to remove the head and cap off the connection. This could be with a plug or possibly a nipple with a cap screwed into the fitting. The method can vary but a quick search online should give you some examples.
You can use the nozzle set screw to adjust the radius down to a minimum of 25' depending on the nozzle installed and your pressure (as shown at :20 into the video). Be careful not to go down too far or the screw will come out the bottom and you could lose it.

Can you just keep spinning it to the left? Like almost all the way around? Sprinkler left stop is waay too far, need to bring it back about 90 degrees.
Watch again starting at 1:57 to see how to reduce the arc. You can also can also use a flat head screwdriver to do this (0:58). Here's a link to Toro's instructions that might help.

Isn't the right stop fixed.... as in u install it in ground with right stop in mind then can adjust left accordingly? I can't tun it further than right stop... u seem to have here.
I have been trying to use a flathead to bring it up while not in use and I have been unsuccessful. I don't want to force it up because I am afraid I will break it
The right stop is fixed so you can't adjust it back to the left. You will need to turn the turret to the right until you reach the desired stop then make your left hand adjustment. Thanks for watching!
At first, it's not clear how to set them up correctly. Thanks for clarifying everything in your video! You just need a thin flat head screwdriver and to understand the right stop and the range of motion.
A tool is not required to adjust the arc. A flat-head screwdriver can be used to adjust the radius or install nozzles (see :10 into the video). The Toro tool is called "Toro T5 Rotor Adjustment Tool" or you can use the Rain Bird Rotor Tool as well.
Water just shoots straight out of the top. I bought 4 of these, and they all do this! This is crazy!
Thank you for this HELPFUL video… I just successfully replaced a Toro T5 and set it up to spray correctly thanks to you!!! AWESOME!!!
You're welcome! Thanks for the comment!

Can you stop the water from spraying at all? What’s the best way to cap this type of sprinkler ?

Is there a way to reduce the volume of water coming through? It's been watering the street

When I adjust my head using the +/- adjustment screw, it seems to adjust the left and right stops 🤔
Where can I print out directions to take out on the lawn with me?

So how do you access the T5 filter and clean or replace it?
You would need to unscrew the riser assembly from the body. The filter is at the base of the riser. Thanks for watching!

This is the tool you are looking for:

haw to adjust the hight of water from graund
How do I subtract from the right stop point. Thanks great video.

How do you change the filters in the toro rapid set t5? My toro head is not rotating anymore and I read it’s because the filter is clogged.
It's easy, put in a hunter!

Thanks for the feedback and for watching!
The obvious question is what tool to use to adjust it. But you fail to mention the exact name of the tool. How about that much?
A tool is not required to adjust the arc. A flat-head screwdriver can be used to adjust the radius or install nozzles (see :10 into the video). The Toro tool is called "Toro T5 Rotor Adjustment Tool" or you can use the Rain Bird Rotor Tool as well.
It broke when I clubbed it
Definitely not helpful
