Abstract
In some implementations, an implement control system includes an operator control configured for manipulation in one or more motions and a controller. The controller may be configured to, based on a particular motion of the one or more motions, cause actuation of one or more first actuators, configured to selectively raise or lower a first lateral side of a work implement of a machine, and one or more second actuators, configured to selectively raise or lower a second lateral side of the work implement, in tandem. The one or more first actuators and the one or more second actuators may be controlled by independent control systems.
