33-2-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
The clutch system is a conventional diaphragm type clutch operated by a hydraulic cylinder. The clutch requires no
adjustment to compensate for wear.
Hydraulic clutch
The hydraulic clutch comprises a master cylinder, slave cylinder and a hydraulic reservoir, which is also shared with
the braking system. The master and slave cylinders are connected to each other hydraulically by plastic and metal
pipes. The plastic section of the pipe allows ease of pipe routing and also absorbs engine movements and vibrations.
The master cylinder comprises a body with a central bore. Two ports in the body connect the bore to the hydraulic
feed pipe to the slave cylinder and the brake/clutch fluid reservoir. A piston is fitted in the bore and has an external
rod which is attached to the clutch pedal with a pin. Two coiled springs on the clutch pedal reduce the effort required
to depress the pedal.
The master cylinder is mounted on the bulkhead in the engine compartment and secured with two bolts. The cylinder
is connected to the shared brake/clutch reservoir on the brake servo by a braided connecting hose.
The slave cylinder is located on the left hand side of the gearbox housing and secured with two bolts. A heat shield
protects the underside of the cylinder from heat generated from the exhaust system. The slave cylinder comprises a
cylinder with a piston and a rod. A port in the cylinder body provides the attachment for the hydraulic feed pipe from
the master cylinder. A second port is fitted with a bleed nipple for removing air from the hydraulic system after
servicing. The piston rod locates on a clutch release lever located in the gearbox housing. The rod is positively
retained on the release lever with a clip.
Clutch mechanism
The clutch mechanism comprises a flywheel, drive plate, pressure plate, release lever and a release bearing. The
clutch mechanism is fully enclosed at the rear of the engine by the gearbox housing.
A clutch release bearing sleeve is attached in the gearbox housing with two bolts and located on two dowels. A spigot
with a ball end is formed on the release bearing sleeve and provides a mounting and pivot point for the clutch release
lever. A dished pivot washer is located on the ball of the spigot. When the release lever is located on the ball, the pivot
washer seats against the rear face of the release lever. A spring clip is located on the lever and the pivot washer and
secures the lever on the spigot. A small bolt retains the spring clip in position.
The release lever is forked at its inner end and locates on the clutch release bearing carrier. The outer end of the
release lever has a nylon seat which locates the slave cylinder piston rod. A second nylon seat, positioned centrally
on the release lever, locates on the ball spigot of the release bearing sleeve and allows the release lever to pivot freely
around the ball.
The clutch release bearing locates on the clutch release lever and the release bearing sleeve. The bearing is retained
on a carrier which has two flats to prevent the carrier rotating on the release lever. A clip retains the release lever on
the carrier. The bearing and carrier are not serviceable individually.

CAUTION: Never re-use fluid that has been
bled from the system.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX - ZF4HP22 - 24
44-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Intermediate plate
The intermediate plate supports the gearbox input shaft and provides the interface between the transmission fluid
pump and the lubrication circuit. The pump attaches to the front of the intermediate plate and is driven by the impeller
in the torque converter. The pump pressurises transmission fluid drawn from the sump on the gearbox housing. The
pressurised fluid then circulates through the torque converter and gearbox housing components for cooling,
lubrication and gear shift purposes. Ports around the outer periphery of the intermediate plate provide the inlet and
outlet connections to the fluid cooler and a pressure take-off point for servicing.
Gearbox housing
The gearbox housing contains two epicyclic gear sets on input and output shafts. Hydraulic brake clutches on the
shafts, control which elements of the gear sets are engaged, and their direction of rotation, to produce the P and N
selections, four forward gear ratios and one reverse gear ratio.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX - ZF4HP22 - 24
44-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The lock-up and brake clutches are operated by pressurised transmission fluid from the valve block in the sump. A
manual valve and four solenoid valves, also known as Motorised Valves (MV), control the supply of pressurised
transmission fluid from the valve block:
lThe manual valve controls the supply in P, R, N and D.
lSolenoid valves MV 1 and MV 2 control the supplies that operate the brake clutches for shift control.
lSolenoid valve MV 3 controls the supply that operates the lock-up clutch.
lSolenoid valve MV 4 modulates the pressure of the supplies to the brake clutches, to control shift quality.
Operation of the manual valve is controlled by the selector lever assembly. In the gearbox, a selector shaft engages
with the manual valve. The selector shaft is connected to the selector lever assembly via the selector cable and a
selector lever on the left side of the gearbox. The selector shaft also operates a mechanism that locks the output shaft
when P is selected.
Operation of the solenoid valves is controlled by the EAT ECU.
An output shaft speed sensor in the gearbox housing outputs a signal to the EAT ECU. The EAT ECU compares
output shaft speed with engine speed to determine the engaged gear, and output shaft speed with vehicle speed to
confirm the range selected on the transfer box.
A bayonet lock electrical connector in the gearbox casing, to the rear of the selector lever, connects the solenoid
valves and the output shaft speed sensor to the vehicle wiring.
A pressed steel sump encloses the valve block and collects transmission fluid draining from the gearbox housing. A
suction pipe and filter on the underside of the valve block connect to the inlet side of the fluid pump. A magnet is
installed in the sump to collect any magnetic particles that may be present. A level plug and a drain plug are installed
in the sump for servicing.
Rear extension housing
The rear extension housing provides the interface between the gearbox housing and the transfer box. A splined
extension shaft, secured to the gearbox output shaft by a bolt, transmits the drive from the gearbox to the transfer
box. A seal in the rear of the housing prevents leakage past the extension shaft. A breather pipe, attached to the left
side of the rear extension housing, ventilates the interior of the gearbox and rear extension housings to atmosphere.
The open end of the breather pipe is located in the engine compartment at the right front corner of the engine sump
on gearboxes fitted to early vehicles and is clipped to the top of the gearbox on later vehicles.
Gearbox power flows
The following Figures show the power flow through the gearbox for each forward gear when D is selected, and for
reverse. The key to the Item numbers on the Figures, and in parenthesis in the accompanying text, can be found on
the 'Sectioned view of gearbox' Figure, above.
1st Gear (D selected)
Clutches (4) and (11) are engaged. The front planet gear carrier of gear set (9) locks against the gearbox housing
through freewheel (15) when the engine powers the vehicle, and freewheels when the vehicle is coasting. Gear set
(10) rotates as a solid unit with the front planet gear carrier. In 1st gear hold brake clutch (8) is applied to provide
overrun braking.
