Toro 640 series industiral sprinklers are difficult to adjust by virtue of the fact that the gears are specifically set at an assigned angle. This differs from other well-known irrigation companies such as Rainbird, who have models similar to the Toro version, but have a special slot to adjust the turning radius. Although you can't really adjust the Toro head, you can order special preset angles from the manufacturer, i.e 170 degrees, 270 degrees, in addition to the regular 180 degrees, 360, etc. To ensure that you have the correct angle, adjust the left side of the sprinkler to the desired angle, (you can see a small arrow etched in the sprinkler.)

90% of the time it is a broken stem that needs to be repaired on the 690 toro sprinkler system.For most people this results in them throwing the whole sprinkler away and buying a new one.Usually this runs you around $200 (give or take) per sprinkler.Now there is a company see link below that makes replacement stems for the 690 series toro sprinkler systems. They usually run for $25 each. Once they give that replacement stem a try... I have seen them being used on golf courses consistently after that. Way better alternative and without a doubt more cost effective.Actually as of right now, this company is the only distributor of this replacement part (stem)
