ABSTRACT:
A bucket valve with a removable handle includes a tubular valve body, a piston disposed with the valve body and a crank arm integrally formed of a central sleeve and two spaced fingers. The fingers are pivotally retained to the piston. A drive shaft is drivingly disposed in and extends from the central sleeve of the crank arm to project through and beyond the valve body to connect by a distal tip thereof to a handle via an axle sleeve. An `L`-shaped latch is resiliently retained in the axle sleeve whereby the combined axle sleeve and handle are removably retained to the drive shaft. The handle has a forked tip forming an outer upper face, a central fork and an outer lower face against each of which a knob can abut in a first, second and third position respectively.
