Abstract
A lever operated switch actuator has a resilient lever secured at its lower end to a bracket and having a control knob at its upper end. The bracket is secured to a supporting surface. A pair of switches having plungers are secured to the bracket on opposite sides of the lever. A lever stop member is secured to the bracket and has stops positioned on opposite sides of the lever and immediately above the switch plungers. The stops of the lever stop member are adjustable with respect to the switch plungers. The lever can be manually grasped at the control knob and deflected forwardly or rearwardly to depress a plunger which activates a switch. A lever stop contacts the lever once a plunger is depressed.
