Hold the accelerator pedal up to the mount on the ¾” tube at the front of the foot box. The higher you
can mount the pedal the better the pedal will be positioned on your foot. The key things to watch for is
clearance between the accelerator pedal and clutch quadrant stop and keeping the cable straight so it will
not rub on the side of the cable sheath. If a higher location is desired, some material can be removed
from the bottom of the clutch quadrant stop. If mounting higher, mark and drill new holes for the bolts
in the pedal.
Attach the accelerator pedal to the mount using the ¼”x ¾” bolts, washers and lock nuts.
Cut the accelerator pedal capture in the corner using a pair of wire cutters.
Slip the accelerator cable through the cut so that the ball will sit in the recess.
Push the capture into the end of the throttle pedal.
Check the full range of the accelerator pedal travel to ensure that there are no interferences with the
pedal or travel.
