I just acquired my first somewhat stripped Wayne 70. I dont see where a light control switch for the lamps go on this pump. I have a small dome like housing punched thru above the reset handle. (cant figure that one) Ive also left a wanted posting for porcelain faces. Thanks guys. Roger

Roger--Most of the 70's that I've had anything to do with, had that old pushbutton type switch, just inside the inspection cover. Most, if not all, of them are so corroded that they are inoperable. I have found a push button switch at the hdwe. store that ncan be retrofitted to one of these switch housings and made to work! Your local Lowes or Menards type store probably has something. ---KEVIN

Just by the repro faces alot easier and finding really clean ones are a pain. Mine has the dome with a push button also.

Check with Ron Scobie. At one time he had repro porcelain faces for the 60 & 70.

Vic's sells repo faces for a 70, think they are $50 a set. I need a new set also, did not have a chance yet to call and see if they are porcelain or not.

Instead of having to open/close the access door just to turn on/off the lights in the pump. I would add an in-line switch to the cord. NO CHIPPING OF PAINT.
