Disassembly

NOTES:
- There are a total of five shift rails in the AX 15 transmission. The 1-2, 3-4, fifth gear and front reverse shift rails are shown.

- Two shift rails are used for reverse gear range. The front reverse rail is at the forward side of the intermediate plate. The short rear reverse rail and reverse shift head are at the rear side of the intermediate plate.

- It is not necessary to remove the shift rails if they are in good condition. Only the shift forks need be removed for access to the shafts and gears.

PROCEDURE
1. Remove fifth gear shift rail. Catch lock ball in your hand as rail comes out of intermediate plate.





2. Remove 1-2 and 3-4 shift rail C-rings with two screwdrivers of equal size and length.





3. Remove shift fork set screws.





4. Remove 3-4 shift rail from shift fork and intermediate plate.





5. Remove 3-4 shift rail interlock plug from intermediate plate with magnet.





6. Remove 1-2 shift rail from shift fork and intermediate plate.





7. Remove 1-2 shift rail interlock pin from shift rail.





8. Remove 1-2 shift rail interlock plug from intermediate plate.





9. Lift reverse shift fork upward and remove fifth gear shift rail lock ball.





10. Remove 3-4 shift fork.
11. Remove 1-2 shift fork.





12. Remove reverse shift rail C-ring with two equal length and size screwdrivers.





13. Remove reverse shift rail and fork.





14. Remove interlock pin from reverse shift rail.
15. Position shift rails, shift forks, lock balls, interlock plugs and interlock pins on the workbench in order of removal. This will help in identifying components during inspection and assembly.
