OrbitTraveling Sprinkler Motor Assembly w/Wheels for The Traveling Sprinkler Tractor

The media could not be loaded. Works well, quality, value for money.

Came on time, it's a perfect fit and was easy to install.

This little tractor moves along the hose without difficulty. You just lay your water hose out in the area that you want watered and connect to the tractor, turn on the water and let it go!! Works great!

I purchased replacement gearbox after orginal failed after 1 year of use and took it apart immediately after receipt. I found that there was only a small dab of silicone grease on one side of the worm and a couple dabs on the gear, the rest of the worm and gear was dry. This is not enough for this type of gear set, so I now recommend taking gear box apart first thing and at the beginning of each season, and apply a liberal amount of a graphite grease on both gear and worm. I can now see that the most likely point of failure is the worm and gear, and it will fail if the worm and gear looses lubrication..To take gear box apart use a flat blade screw driver that is large enough to wedge into the arm pivot center tube (be sure the arm assembly is taken off first) and twist the center tube counter clockwise. the gearbox will not come apart until this part is unscrewed. It is not very tight.After greasing up the replacement unit I reassembled unit. Only tighten worm assembly snug, does not need to be very tight.I am making review to four stars because of the lubricant lack issue.

Easy swap perfect fit

Fixed my sprinkler as hoped. Easy to install no leaks and performs as expected.

The media could not be loaded. I have 4 of these. Each time one broke I bought either a new one or a gear box. The gears are so cheap these days they break within a month. They make it very difficult to pull them apart (sort of hidden lock-See photos) Once you get the gear box off and apart you can use gears from other tractors to fix what ever broken gears you have...IF YOU ARE LUCKY enough to have a different gear break. Neither company (Orbit or Nelson) make the replacement gears. I have yet to find someone that can 3D print them but apparently it can be done. These are AMAZING and valuable if they are made well. They are no longer made well, nor do allow you to fix them. They force you to buy a $42.99 replacement gear box instead of $12.00 for new gear kit. DO NOT BUY unless you know you can get new gears!! I am so disappointed with BOTH of these companies!!

Didn’t want to buy a new walking sprinkler so i opt’ed to repair. Easy swap of parts and let the watering begin
