MACHINE JOYSTICK WITH COMFORT AND ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES
A joystick for performing control functions of a machine having a work tool may include a base portion configured to at least partially support an operator's hand, and a handle extending from the base portion. The base portion may be configured for connection to a control interface surface in a machine cabin or on a remote control console or a remote operator's station for the machine. The handle may extend from the base portion with a proximal end of the handle being connected to the base portion, and a distal end of the handle supporting a head portion of the joystick. The head portion of the joystick may include a back surface that is contiguous with a back surface of the handle, and a front surface including a face plate tilted at an angle of 10 degrees plus or minus 5 degrees in a direction toward a position of the operator sitting in an operator's seat of the machine with respect to a plane parallel to the back surface.
