DOUBLE-CONE SYNCHRONIZER
Double-cone synchronizer is adopted for 1st and 2nd gears to
reduce operating force of the shift lever.
REVERSE GEAR NOISE PREVENTION FUNCTION (SYNCHRONIZING METHOD)
The gear can be matched smoothly in a structure by setting synchro-
nizer hub, coupling sleeve, baulk ring and insert spring to reverse
gear, and letting gear be synchronized.

DRAINING
1. Start the engine and let it run to warm up the transaxle.
2. Stop the engine. Remove drain plug and drain oil.
3. Set a gasket on the drain plug and install it to the transaxle.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
FILLING
1. Remove filler plug. Fill with new oil until oil level reaches the specified limit near filler plug mounting hole.
2. After refilling oil, check oil level. Assemble gasket to filler plug, then install it to transaxle body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
