Adjusting the cable-operated gearbox

Adjustment of the cable-operated gearbox has been simplified by an angle piece on the selector mechanism cover and a locating pin for the gear lever.

The adjustment always begins when the gearbox is in the neutral position:

• To detach the selector cables, follow this procedure:

  Draw the locking mechanism at the gear selector cable and at the gate selector cable forwards as far as the stop. 1 Afterwards, engage locking mechanism by turning anticlockwise. 2 The selector cables can now be adjusted for length.

• To arrest the selector shaft, follow this procedure:

  An angle piece which locates the selector shaft is fixed to the selector mechanism cover. To locate the selector shaft, press down the selector shaft by hand in the gate for 1st/2nd gear. When you press down the selector shaft, 1 press the angle piece towards the selector shaft 2 and then rotate in direction of arrow. 3 It engages and locates the selector shaft in this position.

• To arrest the gear lever, follow this procedure:

  With the engine running at idling speed, locate the gear lever in the gate of the 1st/2nd gear. The gear lever has a locating hole. Insert the locating pin T10027 through this bore and into the hole below it in the selector housing.

• To fix the selector cables in position, follow this procedure:

  The locking mechanism on the gate selector cable and on the gear selector cable can now be turned clockwise. The spring presses the locking mechanism into the set position and secures it. Afterwards, detach the angle piece again and pull out the locating pin. The gear lever should now be in the gate of the 3rd/4th gear, with the engine running at idling speed.
