exercised because faulty adjustment
will result in the breakdown of the
transmission.

Figure AT-51.
2. Set control lever (4) and selector
range lever (6) at "N" position. See
Figure AT-5.1.

3. Set selector rod (T) to trunnion
(2) by turning in or out adjust nuts.

control lever can be set in any position
correctly and that selector lever operates
properly without any binding.
If levers do not operate satisfactorily,
readjust or replace parts as
necessary.
