An on/off valve (O/OV) and directional valves (DV1, DV2) are packaged with a switching valve system (10) in a housing assembly (156, 157, 158, 160). The on/off valve (O/OV) is operated by a control handle (154) that is located at one end of the housing assembly (156, 157, 158, 160). The direction control valves (DV1, DV2) are operated by a handle (141) located at the opposite end of the housing assembly (156, 157, 158, 160). The control handles (154, 141) operate to position cams (152, 136, 138) which function to help position valve plugs. In a second embodiment, the handle (141) and cams (136, 138) for controlling the directional valves (DV1, DV2) are replaced by a solenoid valve system (SV2) . A second solenoid valve (SV1) is added to the control system for the off/on valve (O/OV). The solenoid valve (SV1, SV2) allow for a remote positioning of the controls for the off/on and directional valves (O/OV, DV1, DV2). The handles and cams (141, 154, 136, 138, 152) provide for a compact positioning of the controls at one location requiring utilization of a single compact valve housing assembly (156, 157, 158, 160).
