orientation of each gear as shown.
Slide the supplied white nylon
spacer onto one end of the shaft,
and the grey PTFE-coated
washer on the bearing side of
the other end. Note: Each
output gear features a
shallow side and a deep side.
The deep side of each output gear faces the
selector disc (F).
4. Insert the selector fork (shaft towards the
front) into the selector disc and reinstall the
completed assembly into the transmission in
the orientation shown (F). Note: It is imperative
that the end of the assembly
with the white spacer be

Close ratio gear
head screws securely. Inspect the cover to make sure that the O-ring
set shown
seal is not visible.
