How Do You Adjust the Left Stop on a Rainbird 5000?

Published in Home Improvement 1 min read

The left stop on a Rainbird 5000 sprinkler controller adjusts the watering time for each station. Here's how to adjust it:

  1. Locate the Left Stop: The left stop is a small knob or lever located on the front of the controller, usually near the station selector buttons.
  2. Turn the Left Stop: Turn the knob or lever clockwise to increase the watering time and counterclockwise to decrease it.
  3. Check the Display: The controller display will show the current watering time for the selected station.
  4. Repeat for Each Station: Adjust the left stop for each station individually to set the desired watering times.

Example: If you want to increase the watering time for station 1 from 5 minutes to 10 minutes, turn the left stop knob clockwise until the display shows 10 minutes for station 1.

Practical Insight: The left stop adjustment is a convenient way to fine-tune your watering schedule based on the specific needs of your lawn or garden.
