J.3. with separate gearbox.

Herewith is M. {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Sch. 3833 shewing arrangement of Pedals suitable for the existing engine.

As the difference in load along the clutch operating rod and the reaction link is balanced by the displacement of the pieces in the plan view, it is not necessary to provide any eccentricity on the suspension link in the elevation.
