Kobelt manufacturers a wide range of Push Pull Controls to suit a wide variety of installations involving marine engines.

In addition to the engines these controls could also be used to control other deck machineries.

There are mainly two types Push Pull Control Heads. While some models are designed for single station, there are a number of control heads that can handle two station controls. Kobelt control heads are suitable for single and twin engine applications. Please consult the Push Pull Controls catalogue for specific application details.

• Single lever single function control heads--2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015. 
• Single lever dual function Control Heads--2042, 2043, 2044, 2046, 2047, 2048, 2050 and 2054. These controls are intended for one-station control only.
• The series 2080 and 2090 series are desined for Twin stations. These controls provide single lever control for clutch and throttle from two stations and are avaialble in single and twin engine configurations. These patented designs have proven to be a tremendous success since there is no other control system that even comes close for performance and durability.
