The Maxi-Paw’s powerful throw permits maximum spacing and offers superior close in watering and uniform water distribution. Ideal for dirty water applications with spacing up to 45 feet.

Features:

  • Straight-through flow for superior performance in dirty water.
  • Five interchangeable, color-coded MPR nozzles with standard trajectory.
  • Two interchangeable low angle (LA) nozzles.
  • No tools required to change nozzles.
  • Heavy-duty plastic case with sturdy, reinforced ribbed design.
  • Double-weighted arm for slower rotation and increased distance of throw.
  • Self-flushing inner trip with improved inner trip lever.
  • Powerful reverse action.
  • Adjustable arm spring for low-pressure and low-gallonage operation.
  • Energy efficient, low pressure and low-gallonage operation.
  • Full-circle or part-circle arc 20 to 340.
  • Precision Jet tube (PJ) minimizes side splash.
  • Distance control diffuser pin.
  • Multi-function, pressure-activated wiper seal.
  • Inlet filter screen and pressure-activated wiper seal protect internal assembly from debris to ensure positive pop-up and retraction.
  • Combination 1/2 (15/21) or 3/4″ (20/27) bottom inlet.
  • Side inlet installation is not recommended in freezing climates.
  • Optional internal Seal-A-Matic (SAM) prevents puddling and erosion caused by low head drainage and saves water.
Precipitation Rate: 0.28 to 1.17 inches per hour (7 to 30 mm/h)
Radius: 22 to 45 feet
Pros – Reliable and easy to adjust. I like the side inlet feature.
Cons – If not installed correctly, canister/body can fill up with dirt and debris making the head inoperable. To change an old internal assembly with a new assembly you must have a maxi-paw wrench.
