HYDRAULIC LEVER OPERATION

Pull a lever toward you, away from the mast, and you'll 
get the action shown by the symbol in the top of the 
lever. Push the lever away from you, toward the mast, 
and you'll get the opposite action.

The farther you move the lever from neutral, the faster 
the action will be.
