Hand Controls

Push and Pull Hand Control

Mechanical hand controls are a perfect solution for people with impaired leg function. The system is designed primarily for vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox. The hand control is mounted on the steering column for either left or right hand operation and attached to the pedal box via a mechanical linkage.

The device is pulled back to accelerate and pushed forward to apply the brake. Additional functions can be added to the hand control grip i.e. indicator function switch, however, this may incure additional costs due to the complexity of some vehicle’s electrical systems.

The pedal functions are retained and therefore do not impede normal driving functions. 

Radial accelerator 

Similar to the push and pull control, the radial accelerator can help you control the speed of your car if you are unable to use the foot controls.

Operation: To accelerate, push downwards on the lever in a slight radial action, pushing the lever away from the body to brake.
