TRIPLE-CONE SYNCHRONIZER





Triple-cone synchronizer is used for the 1st and the 2nd gears to reduce operating force of the shift lever.

REVERSE GEAR NOISE PREVENTION FUNCTION (SYNCHRONIZING METHOD)





Reverse gear assembly consists of reverse input gear, return spring, reverse baulk ring and reverse output gear. When the shift lever is shifted to the reverse position, the construction allows smooth shift operation by stopping the reverse idler shaft rotation by frictional force of synchronizer.
