Operation
OPERATION
The input gear is splined to the transmission output shaft. The input gear drives the mainshaft through the planetary assembly and range sleeve. The front output shaft is operated by a drive chain that connects the shaft to a drive sprocket on the mainshaft. The drive sprocket is splined to a differential assembly. Depending on the position of the mode fork and sleeve, the front output shaft is driven directly by the mainshaft or through the differential. The mode fork operates the mode sleeve and hub. The sleeve and hub are not equipped with a synchronizer mechanism for shifting.
