Tealmarli - try taking more water with it or, better still, give it up. It's obviously affecting your health.

Dougs got it on the button here, it is an inching peddle a kinda brake/ clutch combo if you like.
It allows you to rev the engine to say raise the load while the brakes are applied and as you let it up it gradually transfers the power to the drive wheels so the truck doesn't jerk with the mast extended.
Above 16 ton trucks or therabouts with automatic transmissions are not usually fitted with inching pedals as the weight of the truck allows for smooth transfer of power from the engine.

Depends on the make and model. Some have 2 brake pedals. It may be a parking brake. Can't help you more than that.

I assume you are driving either natural gas(propane ) or regular gas or deisel . The pedal on the left is the clutch. On sit down forklifts the dead man switch is under the seat
