Unlike the piano, the organ's pedals do not change the way the hammers hit the strings. Instead, they change the settings which must be set correctly in order to play the right sounds, like an electronic keyboard but less electronic. It depends what you're trying to do by pressing these pedals.

Yes they do. There are 32 pedals from low C up 2.5 Octaves to G. These are played by the feet of an organist. An organist can be sock footed or wear special shoes with leather soles and leather heels. The usual sounds associated with these pedals are very low in pitch. It takes considerable dexterity to play the hands and the feet together ... with practice comes perfection. Some people make a living out of this profession by playing the organ in a church or synagogue.
Wurlitzers like any of the now obsolete brands, you should pay no more than 100.00-200.00 for the spinets(12-13 pedals) and around 300.00 for the consoles(18-25 pedals). These prices are only appropriate if the organ is in good working condition.

An organ can have several different types of pedals. The actual pedalboard is basically a keyboard that you play with your feet, laid out in the same way as the hand keyboards or manuals. You use the pedalboard to play the bass line. Other pedals can include volume or swell pedals and toe pistons to change registration.Many people wear special organ shoes to play organ (Organmasters or Tic-Tac-Toe shoes--I myself (woman) wear ballet slippers, don't know if they would look silly on guys.

Not necessarily. You have the skills to play keyboards and read music, but organs are completely different and require a knowledge of how to work the pedals, pull out stops, etc. If you can play the piano...you have aptitude for playing the organ and you will need additional training.
POWER ADJUSTABLE FOOT PEDALS. This is what it means. I searched all over the internet, and found no answers, until I looked at a Ford Crown Victoria manual. The following instructions are for Ford Crown Victorias. The accelerator and brake pedal should only be adjusted when the vehicle is stopped and the gearshift lever is in the P (Park) position. Press and hold the rocker control to adjust accelerator and brake pedal. • Press the right side of the control to adjust the pedals toward you. • Press the left side of the control to adjust the pedals away from you. The adjustment allows for approximately 2.5 inches (65 mm) of maximum travel. Never adjust the accelerator and brake pedal with feet on the pedals while the vehicle is moving.
