E.A.C. ACCELERATOR PEDAL MOVEMENT

MOVEMENT POINT = π x 2.75 x 80 / 360 x 1 / 1.5 = 1.28"

ANGULAR MOVEMENT OF LEVER B TO MOVE A THROUGH 1.28" / 1.375 = 72°
THIS IS DUE TO TOGGLE ARRANGEMENT

RESULTANT PEDAL MOVEMENT 2π x 72 / 360 x 10.1 / 3.475 = 3.650"

THROTTLE MOVEMENT 80°

3.650" MOVEMENT FULL THROTTLE
