Abstract
A remote-activated valve mechanism for switching a manure agitator-pump apparatus from agitate to full power pump, full power pump to half-power pump, and full or half-power pump to off. The valve mechanism has male and female ends for fitting in a joint between manure piping, a butterfly-style valve, and electric actuator. The electric actuator is powered by a 12-volt power source, and activated by a hand-held remote and remote receiver box programmed to set the valve at open, closed, or partially closed positions.
