The right handle bar lever is for auger/impeller engagement and disengagement. Hold both levers down to handle bar for engagement and release levers for disengagement. When both levers are pressed down to the handle bar at the same time, the operator can release the right hand lever and the right lever will remain engaged as long as the left hand lever is held down to handle bar. Release the left hand lever and both levers will disengage.
