TIA
From top of photo to bottom

Black knob: cabin heat
long Red lever: rotor brake
Yellow lever: throttle
Smaller red lever partialy hidden under the collective: Fuel shut off.

Guarded switch on the top left side of collective...I do not know.

As an aside: For photo we used to use a miltary harness/vest for photo: It had 2 leg straps and one chest stap. All had "quick release" fittings as seen on some parachute harnesses. "Click, click, click" and you were free. Took a good briefing and a couple of dry runs to make sure the pax knew how to exit. The harness had a D ring at the back which was attached to the aircraft with a strap resembling a military parachute static line. Sorry can not post photo of one.
