A nozzle system including a nozzle body configured to dispense fluid therethrough and a lever coupled to the nozzle body and movable in a lever plane between a non-operating position and an operating position. The nozzle system further includes a latch assembly having an engagement surface and a cam. The cam is coupled to or positioned on one of the nozzle body or the lever, and the engagement surface is coupled to or positioned on the other one of the nozzle body or the lever. The nozzle system is configured such that when the lever is moved from the non-operating position to the operating position, the engagement surface engages the cam to cause at least one of the engagement surface or the cam to move relative to the other such that the lever is automatically retainable in the operating position by the latch assembly. The cam does not pivot about an axis aligned with the lever plane when the lever is moved from one of the non-operating position or the operating position to the other one of the non-operating position or the operating position.
