Abstract
First, second and third levers are disposed pivotably and rotatably relative to each other about a predetermined axis. The first lever is operated in association with an accelerator to be rotated in a predetermined one direction in accordance with operation in a direction of opening the accelerator. The second lever is operated in association with a throttle valve so as to open the throttle valve when the second levler is pivotted in the predetermined one direction and it is urged by a first urging member in a direction of closing the throttle valve. The first lever is provided with a first stopper section and the second lever is provided with a second stopper section as to be abuttable with the first stopper section from the predetermined one direction. The first stopper section is urged in such a manner as being brought into abut with the second stopper section by means of a second urging member larger in an urging force than the first urging member. The second lever is forcibly pivotted in the same direction as the third lever in resistance to the second urging member when the third lever is pivotted in a direction opposite to the predetermined one direction by a motor.
