shift linkage adjustment may be necessary.

cap screw securing the linkage to the transmission
shift arm.

switch is in the ON position, the reverse indicator
CD620 light is illuminated, and the shift lever is fully in the
reverse position; then loosen the upper and lower
jam-nuts on the shift linkage and adjust the linkage
to align with the shift arm.
