Tuthill Controls park brake levers offer superior performance, quality and service life to both the designer and user. The lever has two distinct positions, over-centre and off, which are approximately 90° apart. There is no ratcheting to limit travel or secondary unlocking required for operation. A heat-treated 4130 load link provides an excellent combination of qualities for durability and reliability.

An integral adjusting knob allows for setting the initial cable tension, travel, and to compensate for system wear. Side or flange mounted configurations are available for increased adaptability. The input lever and side plates have an epoxy finish or electro-static paint, and all other components are coated for corrosion resistance. A tamper-resistant knob to inhibit unauthorized adjustment, and a weather-resistant switch at the off position, are both available as options.

The levers are supplied with hardware necessary to attach the cable end fittings to the load link. Technical descriptions show the various choices available to meet specific customer needs.
