What is the pedal sequence for a manual transmission?
1 Answers
Manual transmission pedal sequence is clutch, brake, accelerator. When driving, you must fully depress the clutch pedal before shifting gears, otherwise it will accelerate clutch plate wear. The brake pedal is positioned higher than the accelerator to prevent accidental pedal misapplication and potential accidents. Avoid sudden braking unless in emergency situations - instead, gently apply gradual pressure to decelerate smoothly for passenger comfort. Manual transmission (MT), also called manual gearbox, requires physically moving the gear lever to change gear meshing mechanisms inside the transmission, thereby altering gear ratios to achieve speed variation. Through shift forks, manual transmissions modify the transmission ratio (gear ratio) of meshed gears to adjust driving torque according to different operating conditions.
