6. Remove control bracket with 1st & 2nd shift fork.
7. Remove gear components from clutch housing.
a. Remove input shaft front bearing retainer securing bolts.
b. Remove input shaft with bearing retainer, mainshaft assembly
and reverse idler gear.
IAlways withdraw mainshaft straight out. Failure to do so
can damage resin oil channel on clutch housing side.
IDo not draw out reverse idler shaft from clutch housing
because these fittings will be loose.
When removing input shaft, be careful not to scratch oil
seal lip with shaft spline.
c. Remove final drive assembly.
8. Remove oil pocket, shift check ball, check spring and check
ball plug.
IBe careful not to lose check ball.

ADJUSTMENT OF INPUT SHAFT BRAKING
MECHANISM
1. Install striking lever & rod, striking interlock assembly and con-
trol bracket on clutch housing exactly.
IWhen installing control bracket on clutch housing, assure
protrusion beneath bracket is correctly seated.
2. Measure maximum height ªHº while shifting from neutral to
reverse position.
Maximum height ªHº:
67.16 - 67.64 mm (2.6441 - 2.6630 in)
3. Remove control bracket from clutch housing.
4. Measure clearance ªCº between reverse brake cam and strik-
ing lever at reverse position.
Clearance ªCº:
0.05 - 0.125 mm (0.0020 - 0.0044 in)
5. If height ªHº and clearance ªCº are not within specifications,
replace control bracket, striking lever and striking interlock
assembly as a set.
