Ever have to use a jack to jack up your car. The more you can get the handle of the jack (left arm) 90 degrees to the arm that attaches to the jack (the clubhaft) the more travel it has and the quicker the jack raises the car. Sometimes you have something in the way - such as the underside of the car- and you have to have the handle of the jack practically in line with the arm that attaches to the jack- then it takes alot of turns to raise the car. That's #3 accumulator.

Part of some confusion may be that the increased wristcock- accumulator #2 - actually could be construed as increasing the #3 accumulator. Not something to get caught up on.
Great analogy Mike....
