Control Handles

Knight Control Handles come with both horizontal and vertical adjustments along with comfortable ergonomic grips designed to ensure correct operator positioning, making them excellent replacements for non-ergonomic control handles.

Our controls come in either pneumatic, electric or a combination of both and can be customized to fit your application needs.
