against the spring of the reverse gear interlock. Loosen all the
nuts intended for regulating the length of rods.
Set the gearshift lever 9 in the middle position between gears
III and IV. In this position, connect and secure selector rods 8
and 14 taking care to avoid pulling on the levers or rods. This
done, set the gearshift lever 1 in the neutral position between
gears III and IV, and connect the shift rods 5 and 11.
Upon adjustment, check to see whether the gears are
properly shifted in. To this end, shift in the first gear (with the
clutch disengaged) and check to see that the control linkage rods
and levers are not resting against the adjacent parts. Repeat the
same check with the reverse gear shifted in. In this case, check
to see that the intermediate shift lever 6 does not rest against the
frame cross member and the front swivel splash guard when the
latter is opened. There should be a clearance of 2-3 mm between
them when the reverse gear is shifted in.
Maintenance of the Transfer Box
Maintenance of the transfer box in service comes to
checking the oil level and changing oil at intervals specified in
Lubrication Table, and also to checking periodically all attach-
ment parts.
When changing or refilling oil in the transfer box, check
simultaneously the level of oil in the gearbox. The level of oil
should reach the lower edge of the check holes 1 (Fig. 41, 43).
During operation of the automobile, the level of oil in the
gearbox could be lowered to 8 mm relatively the lower edge of
the check hole 1 (Fig. 41), and simultaneously it could be raised
in the transfer box. In this case, it is no need to level the grease
levels.
