Hi guys!
Great site here. I have been a long time listener and first time caller!!
I am looking into buying a BPA 500 what is the Lever that is under the controls? Can't figure it out!
Thanks Danny |

If you are talking about the handle on the main control block, that is your fwd/rev control |

YES!! That makes perfect sense! Now one more question. When i saw this unit in operation the operator used a remote. Does that remote bypass this control?? Or do you still need to run to the pump to move it to go fow and reverse??
Thanks |

The remote does not bypass the fwd/rev lever. With the lever you manually select fwd or rev, and with the remote you simply turn the pump on |

Just looking on. But my question is if or how you would push your ball to clean out..? I know you can feel the ball come back but how do you keep the pump from tearing it up? If you can only be in one place at one time? And if it is supposedly remote controlled why can't you fw/ rev from the remote? |

Doosh, this is the way the pump was designed; i'm not an operator, but BPA 500's have been doing their job that way for many years. WP500/750/1000 have the fwd- rev control with a solenoid and a 3-way toggle switch, to control both directions with the switch/remote |
