Abstract

A manual operator assembly is provided for an interlock assembly. The interlock assembly includes a motor assembly that is locked in one of two positions by a brake assembly. The brake assembly is electronically controlled, but also includes a brake release pedal. The manual operator assembly includes a lever which is coupled to a shaft which is further coupled to a cam. When the lever is rotated, the cam engages the brake release pedal so that the interlock assembly may be operated manually.
