Nelson Traveling Sprinkler RainTrain 13,500 Square Feet Yellow (818653-1003)

Product Information

I think a Nelson Rain Train sprinkler is the finest product available for watering your lawn and I highly recommend it. We have a huge area to water, and it used to be a chore to move around several different sprinklers to reach all the areas of our yard.

The picture to the right shows the automatic shut off device activating against the supplied ramp underneath the sprinkler. The longer the hose run the greater the possibility of it jumping the hose and running into something not intended.The Rain Train Travelling Sprinkler is a fantastic little product that is cost effective but easy to setup and operate. Inherited one of these sprinkler tractors many many years ago and it finally broke, found they still sell them and purchased a new one, it looks just like the one I had and works great. This machine works by travelling along a length of garden hose laid out in the area requiring watering (maximum length of 60 metres). The Nelson travelling lawn sprinkler features a powerful two-speed transmission for high and low speeds. The sprinkler will follow the route of the hosepipe and can cover an area the size of half a football pitch or 13,500 square feet (1254 square metres).

Saves Water - with its even, controlled distribution, the Water Tractor will ensure that your garden receives the required watering and not the patchy and unnecessary saturation of the flower beds, lawns and vegetable gardens. The Nelson Water Tractor is equipped with 3 speed settings - High (HI), Low (LO, and Neutral (N) allowing you to apply either a light watering, a heavy watering, or when in neutral as a static sprinkler, a slow soak of a particular area. I had to find a correct adaptor It would have been much easier if a adaptor was supplied, or I was advised I would need one ! Simply connect your hose pipe to a tap and then lay it out in the middle of the intended route on the area you wish to be irrigated, use wide gradual turns wherever possible. Saves Time - Whatever shape garden you have, the Water Tractor will faithfully follow a chosen route, watering your garden and leaving you time to attend to other matters.This means that if this sprinkler runs into an obstruction for a short period of time IT WILL strip that gear. The shut off ramp can be laid out anywhere along the length of the hose, and when the sprinkler meets the ramp, the starter knob under the traveler is pushed in, turning off the sprinkler. Rear view with a 19mm (¾ inch) male threaded Snap-On style connector fitted into the brass screw connector. Once a gear is selected and the water is turned on the sprinkler will follow the hose pipe back towards the tap.
