-The double nozzle is equipped with a rotory nozzle and a 0-degree nozzle. This double nozzle is used to reach further in deep pens. The 0-degree nozzle can reach up to six meters. However, use the rotory nozzle as much as possible if yoour robot is equipped with the double nozzle. The rotory nozzle are the most efficient one to use. Only use the 0-degree nozzle to reach the end of the pen.+Part number: 1101201

 The double nozzle has a steel ball inside. The steel ball can move with the gravity when the water is turned off. This means that the nozzle has to be in a certain angle to make sure that the water comes from the correct nozzle when we switch the water on. The nozzle that has the steel ball closest to it will receive the water. The double nozzle has a steel ball inside. The steel ball can move with the gravity when the water is turned off.

-It's important to move the robot in a certain way to guarantee there will come water through the nozzle you want to change to. Here is how you switch the nozzle when programming. The instruction shows when the robot change from rotory nozzle to 0-degree nozzle. But it's the same process to go from 0-degree nozzle to rotory nozzle.+It's important to move the robot in a certain way to guarantee there will come water through the nozzle you want to change to.
