ABSTRACT:
In a two-lever control unit including a shaft mounted on the main body of the unit, a clutch operating plate and a throttle operating plate both rotatably supported by the shaft, a clutch lever for moving the clutch operating plate and a throttle lever for moving the throttle operating plate, a locking pin extends through a bore in the main body and has one end engageable in three locking cavities formed in the clutch operating plate and the other end engageable in a locking cavity formed in the throttle operating plate. One of the operating plates, when turned, causes the locking pin to lock the other operating plate. Thus, the clutch lever, when operated, locks the throttle lever, whereas when the throttle lever is operated, the clutch lever is locked. This simple structure gives the control unit greatly improved safety.
