Air operated foot pedal

[bmwpower]

Looking for a foot pedal for my hydraulic/air operated press. Currently, it has a hand operated switch to operate the ram. Does anyone have a source for a foot switch?

The above link is what a search of Grainger for manual air control valves, then narrowed to "foot", yielded me.

You can probably get one used on e-bay if you don't want to fab your own, or pay the $$$ for a brand new one.

Yea, I'm gonna look on ebay for one. New prices are insane. They almost cost more than the whole press.

If anyone comes across a foot pedal in their searches, let me know!

I might have a couple in stock. How many air hoses are going from the valve to the hydraulic?
