DescriptionHand Control Levers allow workers with lower extremity impairments to control equipment foot pedals (such as brakes and clutch) by hand. This item is a straight bar when delivered and must be heated and shaped by the purchaser or a local mechanic. Most brakes and clutches are controlled by foot pedals, preventing workers with lower extremity impairments to operate the equipment. Hand Control Levers are bolted onto foot pedals of farm tractors, excavating equipment, construction equipment, utility tractors, utility vehicles, ATV’s and lawnmowers.Hand Control Levers have two parts: a socket that bolts onto the equipment pedal, and a straight hand lever that slides in and out of the socket as needed. The levers are straight when delivered, and usually need to be heated and shaped for the specific worker and equipment during installation. Workers with common conditions such as these would benefit from a Hand Control Lever.Ankle PainCerebral Palsy (CP)Diabetes/Diabetic NeuropathyFoot PainHeel SpursHip PainKnee PainLeg AmputationLower Extremity ImpairmentsMSNeuropathyParaplegiaProsthetic LimbQuadriplegiaReplaced Joints – ArthroplastyStrokeTraumatic Brain InjuryRheumatoid ArthritisOsteoarthritis
