What controls the engine speed of the MJ-1/B lift truck?

The engine speed of the MJ-1/B lift truck is controlled by the hand throttle located to the left of the steering wheel. This design allows for manual adjustment of the engine's RPM to suit the operational needs while the operator maintains control over the vehicle.

Using a hand throttle provides greater precision in managing the speed, which can be particularly important in sensitive operations or when maneuvering the lift truck in tight spaces. The positioning of the hand throttle allows for easy access and fine-tuning of the engine power without needing to take a foot off the pedal, improving the efficiency and safety of operations.

Other controls, such as foot pedals or remote devices, either provide different functions or are designed for specific tasks, making the hand throttle the most effective and commonly used method for controlling engine speed in this context.
