11486319 · 2022-11-01 · ·

A throttle assembly for an engine includes a remote control throttle lever, a manual throttle control lever, and a throttle return spring. The remote control throttle lever is configured to operate the throttle assembly and the engine based on a force received from an external device. The manual throttle control lever is configured to operate the throttle assembly and the engine based on a force received from a user input at an input portion of the manual throttle control lever. An abutment portion of the manual throttle control lever is spaced from the input portion of the manual throttle control lever and configured to abut the remote control throttle lever. The throttle return spring is configured to bias the remote control throttle lever against the abutment portion of the manual throttle control lever in an opposite direction of the force received from the external device.
