This article explains how to connect and operate the RAINPOINT 1020 10-Pattern Hose Nozzle.
Connect the Hose Nozzle
The 1020 uses a 3/4" threaded water inlet.
Step 1: Check the Hose Connection
Make sure the garden hose connection is clean and compatible with the nozzle.
The nozzle includes a built-in rubber washer.
Step 2: Connect the Nozzle
Screw the garden hose onto the nozzle connection.
Tighten the connection securely by hand.
Step 3: Check for Leakage
Turn on the water and check the hose-to-nozzle connection.
If water leaks from the connection, install an additional rubber washer before reconnecting the hose.
The manual provides spare rubber washers for this purpose.
Select a Spray Pattern
Rotate the spray head to select one of the 10 available patterns:
- FULL
- VERTICAL
- SHOWER
- STREAM
- FLAT
- MIST
- JET
- CENTER
- ANGLE
- CONE
Rotate the spray head completely into the selected position.
A properly selected mode should lock into position.
Adjust the Water Flow
Use the flow-control adjustment on the nozzle to regulate the amount of water.
The control range is: OFF → Maximum
Turn toward OFF to reduce or stop the water flow.
Turn toward Maximum to increase the water flow.
Before Regular Use
Check the following:
- The garden hose is securely connected.
- The rubber washer is correctly positioned.
- The spray head is locked into the selected pattern.
- The nozzle is not visibly damaged.
- Water pressure does not exceed 116 PSI.
