Modification Traction

Hello all,

I have a disabled customer (wheelchair) and wants his forklift customized to be handoperated travel.
Eg accelerator as joystick on the armrest.
This part works as a charm, now he also wants this to be selected, if he is on the truck switch to manual, and if someome else drives, switch back to pedal drive.

Another mechanic already tried to use a 4way switch, but is not really working.

Is there a way to make this happen?
Switching between handoperated an pedal drive.
He would be very happy.

It is a linde BR387 with two pedal drive.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
