- it's considered a vertical motion- an example might be an old water pump- you just pump the handle up and down- the more motion it travels through the great force can be applied.
Mike O thanks for your analogy
that makes sense
Bucket's related expansion added alot to my understanding on how these two accumulators operate.
good stuff

I have been trying to think about these two accumulators in relation to the left arm flying wedge. MikeO mentioned that these two angles can be confused, and that did happen to me for a while.
Here are some things that I am currently trying to work out, so it might be incorrect. Accumulator #2 is velocity power. The left wrist cocks up, on the plane of the left arm flying wedge. This shortens the length of the primary lever assembly. During release, the left wrist uncocks on the same plane of left arm flying wedge. I think Bucket said that full lever extension happens after impact.
Accumulator #3 is transfer power. I have been thinking about this one as torque. I wonder if this is correct. The left wrist turning and rolling produces a twisting force on the grip (without allowing the grip to actually change at all). If you visualize the left arm flying wedge as a sail from a sail boat....does the turn and roll cause the sail to 'catch wind' on both the backswing and downswing ?

This is #2 . . .
It is that simple.
Rather than hammering on a VERTICAL Plane you as a G.O.L.F.er are hammering on an INCLINED PLANE.
#3 is simply Rolling the "residual" velocity through the ball. So you are still hammering (Uncocking) as you roll the rest through . . . you are not FULLY UNCOCKED until AFTER impact.
Check this video out for a CLASSIC LBG demo on Roll POWER . . . particularly as it relates to the Delivery Line and the Uncocking Vertical to the Inclined Plane.

In fact, no less than Sam Snead described the Left Wrist Release as a "sidewise hammer." And the Left Wrist does indeed continue to 'hammer' through Impact as it moves from Level (at Impact) to Uncocked (post-Impact). So, even the Swinger's Sequenced Release --Uncock then Roll -- is not completely Sequenced: There remains a touch of the 'simultaneous' Uncock and Roll as well. However, the Uncocking always precedes the Rolling.

Thanks, Bucket!
You reckon these boys know how to Load up the #2 Pressure Point?
Put your club in your left hand only . . . raise your hand up beside your left ear and hammer the ground vertically . . . you'll get this same look . . . just on a different plane . . . do it in a mirror see how throw out works . . . then move it over to the inclined plane.
