Q:Can you put a timer on this? If i wanted it to water at specific times a day? Or does it just end when the cycle is done?

Answer This Question

A:  The sprinkler runs when the water source for the hose is turned on. You can get a hose timer, something like this ... https://www.homedepot.com/p/Orbit-1-Port-Single-Dial-Timer-62056/100126132 ... to turn the water on and off.

    A:  You can set it up with a timer to start the cycle and then stopping point will shut it off along the hose travel.

            Worked great but doesn't hold up well
            I bought this back in June and it did a great job watering the lawn. However, after a few months, it stopped working as the wheels no longer move. Not sure if I'd buy another one, it's pretty expensive for something that doesn't hold up more than 3-4 months.

              Plastic Drive on metal body...
              The plastic drive mechanism on this cannot handle dragging a hose. Worked for 2 months, twice a week. Now it clicks at me, and won't advance.

                Good weight, good traction plastic gears will not hold up very long and it can’t drag a very big hose for very far.
