The stations are operated by pulling the handle marked “PULL” on the front of the unit as far down as it will go. At that point, the handle will lock in place and is easily visible from up to 50 feet. The activation handle is reset by opening the station with the key, placing the “PULL” handle to its normal upright position (resetting the toggle switch when applicable) and relocking the station. On the dual action, the “PUSH” or optional “EMERGENCY” bar moves inward allowing the “PULL” handle to be operated by a single hand.
