Clutch Brake (Non-Synchronized Transmissions) - Vehicle
Stationary
A clutch brake stops transmission input shaft rotation so you can
accomplish the initial first gear or reverse gear selection when your
vehicle is stationary and the engine is at idle speed. Clutch brake
application occurs in the last 1 inch (25 millimeters) of clutch pedal
travel.
When using the clutch brake, fully press the clutch pedal and shift the
transmission into first gear or reverse. If the transmission does not go
into one of these gears, slowly release the clutch pedal while applying
light pressure on the transmission shift lever until it shifts into gear.
Note: After engagement of first gear, do not use the clutch brake for
upshifting or downshifting. If you do, clutch brake life shortens and gear
selection shift efforts may increase.
Double-Clutch Procedures - Non-Synchronized Transmissions
In order to properly upshift or downshift:
1. Press the clutch pedal to disengage the clutch.
2. Shift the transmission into neutral.
3. Release the clutch pedal.
If upshifting, wait until the engine speed matches the transmission speed
of the gear you are selecting.
If downshifting, accelerate the engine until the engine speed matches the
input speed of the gear you are selecting. Press the clutch pedal
immediately and shift into the desired gear, then release the clutch
pedal.
