The
transaxle
is
a
complete
unit
conSisting
of
a
transmission
and
differential
axle.
Gear
shift-
ing
is
accomplished
by
a
direct-mounted
shift
lever
connected
to
the
four
forward
speeds
and
one
reverse.
There
are
two
distinct
shifter
fork
and
gear
assemblies:
one
for
reverse,
first
and
second;
the
other
for
third
and
fourth.
The
transaxle
has
automotive-type
alloy
gears
turning
on
anti-friction
bearings
and
is
oil-
bath
lubricated.
Needle
bearings
are
used
throughout
Litho
in
U.S.A.
except
for
the
input
shaft
bearing
and
axle
hous-
ing
bearings
which
are
ball
bearings.
The
3-speed
and
4-speed
transaxle
are
not
interchangeable.
That
is,
a
4-speed
transaxle
cannot
be
installed
in
tractors
having
a
3-speed
transaxle,
nor
can
a
3-
speed
transaxle
be
in-
stalled
in
a
tractor
with
a
4-speed
transaxle.
This
is
because
extensive
changes
to
the
tractor
frame
and
components
are
required.
