At first when you said "traveling sprinkler" I thought you meant it was small enough to be portable and travel with you on the road. Didn't think it was moving itself! 😄
Lol We have had these for so many years and I have actually rebuilt them because we wore them out and I have another video on here on my channel about rebuilding them for very little money
There is a ramp available for the Nelson Raintrain that you place towards the end of the run in the hose. When the tractor Ramos up in the ramp it switches a valve switch off on the bottom of the sprinkler and shuts the sprinkler off until you shut the faucet off. I’m certain that the ramps are available through Nelson or Orbit websites as both use the same ramp though different in different corporate colors.
I used to use those but now i put such a long hose on it that it takes many hours and we just keep pulling it through to do the whole lawn if possible.
I have a long section of feild for a back yard, and didnt want to install sprinklers, but I didnt know if it was possible to have a nice lawn with portable sprinklers only, your yard is beautiful and now im excited to get started. Whats the climate where you live, and do you spend much on your water bill?
we can run three of these tractors 12 hours a day and the bill is only 60 $ extra a month for electricity on the well pump. Water is free in the country. Thanks so much for watching.
I personally like the tripod because I can control it and the length that it waters on one spot. My wife loves the tractors because we set three down at the road and they travel all the way to the house with no watching or working at it.
I’m sitting at home on a Friday night while my wife walks a dog watching videos about sprinkling a yard. Life is good
Very good life. We do love our sprinklers. Which type did you decide to go with?

Thanks big dog
Thanks for watching. I hope a few more of my videos can help you.
So which of the two do you prefer for your large yard? Which is more practical?
