PEDAL FOR SERVO LeC.1867. X.9910 X.9470 We send herewith N.sch.1802 shewing the brake pedal for use with servo on LeC.1867. It will be seen that the pedal is esentially that shewn on N.sch.1766., with the sheet metal triangle so constructed that the pull rod from the pedal is dis- placed inwards .225". The rest of the pedal mechanism is that shewn on N.sch.1766. Will Derby please set out the pedals for 'C' and 'D' type steering on similar lines.
