Thank you for purchasing our Pro GT V3 Pedal Set. We are sure you will enjoy your purchase.
The Pro Series range of controls are products that were designed and developed by SimworX with the ultimate aim of
supplying the most realistic motorsport inspired controls for the ultimate virtual racing experience. Each product is
pre-tested prior to shipping to ensure your investment is ready to go once you’ve received it. We continually upgrade
our controls to ensure the pedals are robust and give positive feel and feedback. A 12 bit resolution USB interface
ensures accurate pedal control whilst the unique Hydraulically loaded Load Cell activation system enables the braking
system to be fully tuned in to your racing style.
A load cell works the way it feels. It is measuring force (same as a brake) and feels like a brake because it gets
harder to get it to "max" due to the progressive resistance that gets harder and harder. The perfect pedal for sim
racing is to have hydraulics in the system because that's what real brakes are, and in conjunction with the load cell,
the force outputs to a 12 bit resolution circuit board for accuracy. Simworx has also introduced a rocker arm that the
load cell cylinder system pressures up, and by introducing variable durometer dampers that works against the rocker
arm’s action, a very finely tuned end stop feel can easily be attained. In a good race pedal system, the pedal barely
moves once the pads touch the rotor. A good racecar brake pedal feels like stepping on a brick once full pad pressure
has been attained and that is achievable with this system. If that’s not to your liking, you can back it off by using the
thumb screw and/or interchanging the supplied dampers. Brake feel is very subjective, that’s why all of these
adjustments have been introduced.
The following instructions will guide you through the installation process and the various adjustability options
built into the unit

1x User Manual
For owners of existing Simworx SX02 series simulators and/or chassis units, the mounting points for the pedals and
heel plates are already in place. Locate the pedals and with the supplied bolt set insert them in to the pre-tapped bolt
holes. Slot the heel plate over the front edge of the pedal base and lock it in place with the supplied 6mm stainless
steel bolts.
For fitting to other simulators, make sure the frame is strong enough to withstand the forces you can exert on the
brake pedal. On the next page you will find a drilling guide for your Pedals & optional heel plate. Position the pedal
set & heel plate at your preferred location and using the slots either side of the base plate, carefully mark the hole
position through the pedal base slots onto your mounting surface.
Once you are satisfied with its location, drill a small pilot hole at each bolt location. Finish the holes for the pedal
set at 8.0 – 8.5mm & 6.0 – 6.5mm for the heel plate.
Bolt the pedal set in place using the supplied bolts and alloy cup washers in the bolt pack. Fasten the slot bolts first
and adjust the pedal position incrementally until you are satisfied with its final position. Once satisfied mark through
the two bolt holes either side of the brake pedal pivot mount , take the pedal set off again and drill the final two 8mm
holes where you marked them.
For final permanent mounting, bolt the two centre brake pivot holes first, then screw in the four slot bolts and
tighten securely. Please make sure they are secured tightly to ensure that the pedal set doesn’t flex under the
pressure. The mounting surface needs to be strong enough to withstand the of pressure that can be exerted
on the brake pedal.
Finally, fit the optional heel plate if your rig allows it, it slots over the front edge of the pedal set base and is
bolted in place with two 6mm Stainless Steel screws and the countersunk alloy washers.
