TRANSMISSION LUBRICATION SYSTEM
The oil that is necessary for the operation and
lubrication of the transmission is made available by
a gear type pump that has two sections. The shaft
that turns the input gear for the transfer gears also
turns the shaft for the pump. The pump turns at
engine speed.
There are three oil reservoirs for the transmis-
sion; transmission reservoir (9), main reservoir (10),
and differential reservoir (11). The oil is pulled
from the main reservoir (10) by the small section of
the pump (6). The flow of oil from the small section
of the pump goes through filter (1) to main relief
valve (2). The flow of oil then goes to the selector
valve (8), oil cooler (3) and to the clutches and
gears for lubrication.
