Ye ole D 15 II foot throttle. Well how many years has it been since I got those parts in the mail? I decided it was time to do it while getting ready for the end of the month tractor ride. i kept throwing the parts at the tractor and something always just did not quite marry up. Well i was lucky the rods were 1/4 weldable steel. Had to make a different length one for the vertical rod and then finally for the carb side to replace the stock one with a smidge longer one. So the saga is over and it works like a champ. Thanks for the parts. BTW Allis decided a good place for the foot feed would be right between and under the brake pedals. It did not take me long to figure out it was easy to step on a brakes and throttle at the same time.

Hey Dave,,,Gosh,,it has been a while ain't it,,,,
 And I'm glad it did work out for you,,,but,,,,but now I'm thinkin maybe a good place for that unit would of been on my D14 Backhoe/Loader,,,, The more I use the D14,,the more I think a foot throttla would be better than a pre-set throttle,,,, But knowin ole Joe,,,I did cheat a little and made some sketches of yours ,,,,,,,,if I can just remember where I put the dang things,,,,, |

Joe, I decided that I would rather not have the foot pedal on there. It is more handy for me to just step on the the bell crank or whatever that crank is the pedal goes on. So the pedal will be lying around in the scrap pile iffin you need it for something. |
