How about a simpler solution. Maybe just a long handle? Perhaps with a T

handle to make operating the valve at a distance easier?



You said "completely" covered though so I'm not sure. The thing is it's a

simple valve built into the body of the jack, so setting up a remote valve

is not going to be super easy.


Super easy. Drill and tap for the fittings, and run hoses to and from the remote valve.

Now is that safe??????????????????????
