Thrust Levers, Left & Right
Engine
Controls forward thrust and
acts as fuel shutoff.
Remains locked at idle
position during thrust
reverser operation.
Note: In the event of an
inadvertent thrust reverser
deployment, the thrust
reverser system will
mechanically drive the
applicable thrust lever to
the idle position.
Idle/Shutoff
Release Latches
Lift to advance thrust
levers from shutoff to
idle positions or
retard throttle levers
from idle to shutoff
positions.
Thrust Lever Friction
Adjustment
Adjusts friction on thrust
levers only. Rotate control
clockwise to increase
friction.
Takeoff/
Go-Around Switches
Momentary pushbutton
switches. These Switches
are associated with Takeoff/
Go-Around mode of Flight
Director system.
