Turbo Carver Foot Switch

This foot pedal connects into your air hose to control the speed of your carver and comes with two brass hose barbs for an easy hook-up. Push your air hose onto the barbs, and you have instant speed control. Your carving tool is off until you apply foot pressure to the pedal. The more you push the pedal, the faster your carver turns. The foot pedal uses an actual control valve connected to a long throw pedal to vary the air flow. Unlike other foot controls that pinch the air hose and can cause leaks and foot fatigue.

Once you use a foot pedal like this, you’ll marvel how you ever carved without it. This foot pedal represents industrial grade quality and will last a lifetime. Best of all, it’s discounted when you buy it with the Vortex F5 Turnkey. We’ll even install the brass hose barbs and if you get the Essential Accessories Kit. Heck, we’ll provide to you a little extra hose and connect it all together for you.

Speed Control Foot Pedal - Inside with hose barbs

Notice the difference in the between the springs. Instead of a plastic crossbar pin there is a metal actuator pin that makes contact with a brass pivot point on the foot pedal lever. This is the difference between quality and cheap plastic.

Turbo Carver's Foot Control

This foot pedal uses spring pressure to pinch the air hose. When you press down on the foot pedal, the crossbar pin move down allowing the pinched hose to relax allow air to flow towards the carver. Over time, this method of air flow control will compromise the air hose where the crossbar is depressed into the hose developing a pinched area.

Footnote: We indeed detected some metal! There is a spring and a large washer bonded to the bottom of the very light weight foot pedal to give it some weight. This increased weight appears to aid it will lay flat on the floor. Beside these to metal parts, all other components are plastic.
