1. A refuse vehicle, comprising:
a chassis supporting a plurality of wheels;
a motor supported by the chassis;
a vehicle body supported by the chassis and defining a receptacle for storing refuse therein;
a lifting system movable between a first position and a second position different from the first position;
a processing unit in communication with the lifting system and motor and configured to access and execute a plurality of preset operational modes stored within a memory to adjust performance parameters of at least one of the motor or the lifting system, wherein the plurality of preset operational modes includes at least a first preset operational mode corresponding to a presence of a first attachment in communication with the processing unit and a second preset operational mode corresponding to an absence of the first attachment; and
a human machine interface in communication with the processing unit and including a first input corresponding to the first preset operational mode and a second input corresponding to the second preset operational mode;
wherein upon receiving a selection of one of the first input or the second input, the processing unit adjusts the performance parameters of at least one of the motor or the lifting system toward values associated with the preset operational mode corresponding with the selected first input or the second input.
