The optional Foot Pedal gives you added safety. Water flows when you step on the pedal and stops when you lift your foot. Made of rugged steel components, the Foot Pedal attaches between the outlet of the pump and the inlet of the hose reel. (Catalog # FM-1)

The Foot Pedal can be used with any jet manufactured by General. It interrupts the flow of water between the pump and the nozzle while leaving both hands free to guide the hose. The pump will continue to run in by-pass mode. Do not leave pump in by-pass for more than a few minutes or the pump can be damaged.

The Foot Pedal may be connected either at the machine or remotely at the drain site. To use the foot pedal at the machine, remove the hose going to the swivel on the hose reel and attach it to the inlet side of the Foot Pedal. Then, connect the accessory hose (available in 6 ft., 25 ft., or 50 ft. lengths) between the outlet of the pedal and the swivel on the hose reel. Some jet models may need the added length of the accessory hose on the inlet side of the pedal.

For remote operation, pull the hose from the hose reel to the drain site. Attach the hose to the inlet of the pedal. The pedal is designed for 3/8” hose fittings. If using a 1/4” hose, use the AD-1 adapter, as well. Then, attach the smaller hose (1/8” or 1/4”) to the outlet side of the pedal. Use the smaller hose to clear the drain line.
