I have a switch just like the on/off switch for a Jake, but when you use the switch it is all or nothing. With the lever you can apply whatever amount (of air) that you want. There is a cylinder with a diaphragm that controls the amount of oil directed to the retarder. Air pressure is used against the diaphragm to move that cylinder.
I have another truck that has Jakes as well as a retarder, but it doesn't have a dash switch for the retarder, just the shorter lever next to the trailer brake handle.
