Uflex B184 Single Lever Side Mount Control with Trim Switch for Outboard Engines

The Uflex B184 is a mechanical or hybrid single lever, dual action side mount control built to operate both throttle and shift from one handle. It is suitable for any type of boat with an outboard engine and can be installed horizontally or vertically, on either the starboard or port side of the boat, giving installers flexibility to match the helm layout.

The control is designed around safety: it enables easy and safe shifting by preventing accidental gear engagement unless the engine is idling, and it is provided with a positive lock-in neutral feature to prevent accidental gear engagement. A neutral safety switch (X12 - 34543Q) prevents the engine from starting while in gear. The B184 exceeds EN ISO 11547 standards for control systems on boats.

A throttle friction system is built in and adjustable from outside the housing, letting the operator fine tune resistance on the throttle motion. A pull-out handle disengages the shift function for engine warm-up. What sets the B184 apart within the single lever side mount line is its power trim switch, conveniently located in the handle grip, which allows the operator to tilt the engine without removing a hand from the control lever.
