Thanks. Can you explain to me what the hand throttle is for and if it is necessary? How hard is it to install and what parts will i need apart from the actual hand throttle?
Cheers
Zac
From memory there are some rod linkages to match it up to the pedal throttle assembly but I would need to have a look at mine. Unless you run pto winches or ffr generators they do not have a huge amount of use, but as stated there are some benefits. I have a diesel so it is useful to set it to a fast idle on first start until it has fully warmed up and as mentioned above you can up the revs for other things like jump starting.
I used mine as a breakdown recovery Vehicle with a small Harvey frost crane in the back,
When I needed to jumpstart a larger diesel van/ truck it was useful to keep the revs up
( more power from the alternator) to start them,
If memory serves me it needed some Rivnuts and bolts and the linkage bolted directly onto the throttle arm under
The bonnet, mine was a 2 1/4 petrol
