ABSTRACT:
Cable assemblies are useful for controlling the engine governor of a vehicle. On some vehicles the operator must control the governor from two different locations or operating positions of the operator. The subject arrangement includes a cable assembly having a first end portion connected to a vehicle governor, a second end portion and an intermediate portion. A lever is connected to the second end portion to control the vehicle governor. A pedal is connected to the intermediate portion to also control the vehicle governor. This arrangement of components provides a single cable assembly which can be actuated from two locations for controlling the vehicle governor.
