ABSTRACT:
A treadle assembly provides an electrical signal to an electronic controlled engine. The assembly includes a treadle suspended in the operator compartment. The treadle is pivotally mounted to a lever which pivots in response to the operator imposed depression of the treadle which, in turn, actuates a rotatable gear. The gear is in operative engagement with the potentiometer and an electrical signal is sent to the engine in response to rotation of the gear. The lever and gear are preferably interconnected by a slot and pin connection to reduce manufacturing costs associated with the components and accommodate misalignment during assembly and tolerance stackup associated with assembling individual components together.
