This complete mechanical system transfers all three pedals movements to two or even one lever situated underneath the steering wheel. The lever on the right side controls clutch and brake. Moving the lever downwards we control clutch and pushing it towards dashboard we control brake independently on clutch position. With a lever on the left side we control accelerator, eventually the accelerator can be situated as a ring on the steering wheel. The accelerator is also possible to be on the right side as a motorcycle handle, so all three pedals are controlled with one lever.
Charakteristics
- mechanical control = reliability
- good price
- more possibilities of accelerator control
- more physically demanding
Other way how to control all three pedals is by MERO 2a with electronical clutch or electronical accelerator with electronical clutch.
Look at the gallery of cars equipped by MERO 1 hand control.
MERO 1 variants
MERO 1 - classical layout
Accelerator lever on the left - moving it down you activate accelerator, cluth and brake bar on the right - moving it down you use clutch and in every position moving it foward you brake.
MERO 1 - Clutch, brake, throttle on a single control lever on the right
The twist grip is also located on the brake and clutch lever, meaning that all pedal controls are mounted on a single lever!
This is often supplemented by an additional throttle lever on the left, similar to the illustration. This allows the user to select a different throttle control for different operating situations (e.g., when parking or reversing).
MERO 1 - with electronic gas ring
An electronic ring on the steering wheel can, of course, be used to operate the throttle. The ring can be designed as a push ring or a slide ring above or below the steering wheel.
