lever
                                                                        () 
switch
Pulleys were the rope changed direction, rope was clothline wire.
Lever had a spring, so pull switch on, pull switch off.

This person used a steering wheel with rope and pulley for his 
rotator.  (If he were still alive today I think that he might used the 
outbaord motor steering setup.
