re. PEDALS FOR SERVO. X9470 X9910
Lec.1867.
We send herewith N.scheme 1802., shewing the brake pedal for use with servo on Lec. 1867.
It will be seen that the pedal is essentially that shewn on N.scheme 1766.,with the sheet metal triangle so constructed that the pull rod from the pedal is displaced inwards .225". The rest of the pedal mechanism is that shewn on N.scheme 1766.
Will Derby please set out the ped- als for 'C' and 'D' type steering on similar lines.
