Telescopic Mechanism
The upper steering shaft is divided into two shafts, connected by splines, making it possible for the shaft to telescope
while transmitting the rotation of the steering wheel. When the telescopic lever is lowered, the lever pivot turns in a
direction to loosen the stopper shim at the tip of the lever pivot, allowing the shaft to make telescope. The telescopic
stroke is limited by the slot and stopper on the movable shaft. After selecting a steering wheel position and returning
the telescopic lever to the fastening position, the stopper shim is pressed against the movable shaft the lever pivot to
fasten the sliding part.
