WYMAN Please receive herewith the following scheme :- F.CD.606 Accelerator Pedal. The above scheme shews the accelerator pedal mounted on top of the frame by a forging, as there are no dashbrackets. The relationship of the accelerator pedal to the steering column and front seat agrees with the particulars given on F.CD.557. The pedal plate is to be flash butt welded to the holder, similar to the clutch and brake pedals. The gastight scheme is shewn on F.CD.615. Details are urgently required.
