TRANSMISSION
The transmission is designed
for safe, trouble-free operation and long life. The
constant mesh, helical cut gears have sliding
shifter
collars for quiet operation and effortless
shifting. There are three forward working speeds,
a road speed and reverse in this four-speed trans-
mission. The sturdy, forged shifter-forks pro-
vide positive movement of the shift collars when
the sbift rails are moved. Detent pins, in notches
on
the shift rails, control their position, both in
neutral and in gear.

Two balls
and a pin, arranged in the rear flange
of the transmission housing between the shift
rails,
serve as an added safety device-preventing
two gears from being engaged at the same time.
