Abstract: A flow control device for the drain lines of a septic system interrupts the flow in the event the proximate water table rises to a level of over-saturation resulting in the effluent flow being directed to the remaining drain lines. Each drain line is provided with a control box having a float controlled inlet valve having an open position allowing flow to the drain line. When the drain line cannot handle the required flow rate or when the proximate water table rises, the float shifts the valve toward a closed position, thereby redirecting the flow to the remaining lines.

Abstract: A steerable drive assembly for local movement of a trailer includes an electric motor drive wheel unit having a drive wheel connected to the output shaft of a gear reduction unit. A steering shaft is connected to the drive wheel unit and an upper operating handle. The steering shaft is rotatably supported by a sleeve assembly that is attached to the tongue of the trailer. The operating handle includes a throttle coupled with the electric motor through a variable speed control for providing progressing power to the motor to enable speed variation without wheel slippage.
