g journeys the need to keep the crator pedal depressed, generally :ermediate position, often proimp and aches in the driver's If there is no side support for the effect is greater. An attachment to allow the foot to be freed from its position on the pedal is being imported by L. F. Brenner, Ltd., Sidcup, Kent. It is called the Fixogas and is fitted to the footboard of the vehicle under the pedals and attached to the accelerator pedal with an additional connection to the brake pedal.
Operation of the accelerator pedal is not affected normally, but when a desired speed is reached, a light touch on the brake pedal with the left foot will fix the accelerator pedal in its position. The pedal can be depressed when additional power is needed, but when released it returns to the previously set position.
When full control of the engine is required, a light touch on the brake pedal puts the device out of operation.
Retail price of the Fixogas is £3 9s.
