Brakes/accelerator pedal

[Markwin Serlui]

Thanks Phil, so i'd better start hunting for a manual first!
Any comprehensible copies out there?

It's a cab 13 with square hatch, or is that cab 12?
I'll,post some pics after i have it at my house

Markwin,

Congrats on your buy! In your earlier thread I read:

It has a small crane (jib?) in the back for lifting ammo crates.

Can I conclude you bought this one? If so, it might be useful to mention it has a diesel engine fitted.

Other than that what Phil mentioned, I could only add that one can download manuals from http://www.canadianregister.co.uk

HTH,
Hanno

Thanks Hanno!
Yes that's the one, i finally got it
Remember i was after it already years ago?
Anyway i tracked it down and the owner wanted to sell so it's mine now...
I decided not to let the garage door stop me haha

I still has the diesel engine from '45-'46 fitted...
The two previous owners used a string to pull the accelerator pedal back up, but i dont want to do that

Hi Markwin

Now I understand the throttle question, what dose it have for a transmission? Would really be interested to hear and see more about the diesel engine and how it was mounted.

Depending on how they rigged the throttle linkage my choice for putting a return spring on the linkage would be down on the cross shaft under the floor by the peddles.

If you don't find what you need on the manual sections on the brake let me know and I'll post them.

Cheers Phil

Is this picture taken in your yard? I see a French Lorraine 37L "Tracteur Blindee" lurking in the foreground
