If it is new ... take it back to the place you bought it ... see the clerk who took your $ ask them if they remember you purchasing the device on a particular day ... establish that is is a new device then ask for instruction on operating it or for an adjustment or parts to repair it.

Improperassembly. Change the direction of the nozzles on the spray bar so it turns in the opposite direction..

Because it looked cool, more then likely you will need to take it apart and fix it, or if you still have the sales receipt exchange it for a new one. Good Luck Tim

Sounds like the sealing rings for the arms have perrished and are jamming the arms as well as allowing the water to bypass.

did you pull out the button cut off switch on the bottom of the sprinkler?

I have 2 John Deere 4010 traveling sprinklers and they both do the same thing. I took them apart and the plastic worm gear has flat spot on them. I am having difficulty finding replacement parts.

On the left side of the injection pump is the fuel shutoff solenoid

Yes. The ignition switch uses two contacts for start/run. START position energizes the fuel shutoff relay which feeds back into itself to create a self latching state. The RUN position allows the self latch to continue until no longer in the RUN position (OFF), which interrupts the self latch thereby cutting off fuel. So you need to determine why the ignition switch RUN position doesn't maintain the fuel relay self latch state.

There are several possible causes for this, such as: A loose or disconnected spark plug wire A faulty or dirty spark plug A clogged or faulty fuel system A broken or chafed wire from the starter A bad voltage regulator or battery A malfunctioning safety switch or ignition switch You wll have to check each one of these, clean what is dirty, replace what is broken or clogged, make sure the spark gat is .76 mm if you change the plugs. You will need a multimeter to check the voltage regulator.

• Disconnect the three-wire connector from the voltage regulator.
• Connect the jumper wire from the negative battery terminal to the black wire terminal on the voltage regulator.
• Connect the red probe of the multimeter to the red wire terminal on the voltage regulator, and the black probe to the jumper wire.
• Set the multimeter to measure DC voltage and turn the ignition switch to the ON position. You should see a reading of about 12 volts. If not, the voltage regulator is faulty and needs to be replaced.
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and disconnect the multimeter and the jumper wire.
• Reconnect the three-wire connector to the voltage regulator and the negative battery cable to the battery terminal.
