<p>This Technical Specification gives guidance on actuating forces for hand and foot controls on powered lawn,</p>
<p>garden and horticulture equipment, and their displacement, preferred location and method of operation. It is</p>
<p>applicable to operator controls on both ride-on machines and pedestrian-controlled machines. Handheld products</p>
<p>are not covered.</p>
<p>This Technical Specification is not applicable to passive controls (e.g. seat-activated, operator-presence controls</p>
<p>utilized on ride-on machines). It contains data applicable to frequently used controls that require intentional</p>
<p>operator actuation for control function. Infrequently used control forces and displacements may exceed the</p>
<p>magnitudes given in this Technical Specification.</p>
<p>NOTE The concept of frequently used controls is relative to a given machine type and its use or requirements.</p>
