INSTALLATION
Install the E-ring [1], washer [2], and shift rod spring [3]
on the shift rod [4].
• Do not reuse the E-ring if it is deformed or
deteriorated.
• Check that the E-ring is set in the groove in the shift
rod securely.
Insert the shift rod [1] into the gear case, aligning the
cam [2] of the shift rod with the "A" point [3] of the gear
case as shown.
Install the shift rod on the shift slider [4], aligning the
cam of the shift rod with the groove [5] in the shift slider.
• Check that there is a marking [6] in the shift rod end.
After installing the shift rod, position the shift rod in the
"N" (Neutral) position and check that the cutout in the
spline [7] faces to the cruising direction [8].
• If the cutout of the spline is not in the cruising
direction, protect the spline with a shop towel and
turn the shift rod right or left with a wrench until the
cutout faces toward the cruising direction.
