TRANSMISSION GEARSHIFT MECHANISM DIAGRAMMATIC SKETCH

ABOVE IS GEARSHIFT MECHANISM CONTROL CONFIGURATION

The transmission control mechanism must meet the requirement that only one

shift can be chosen when the shift is changing and prevent from choosing reverse gear.
The gear should be full length meshed after the gear shifted and prevent the gear out
of position automatically. The transmission of Q/SQR7160 A15RHD car is composing
of internal and external parts because it is positioning on the front driving axle far
away from the driver and can not control directly.

SHIFT ADJUSTMENT

Neutral positioning：

——Disassemble gearshift knob and protective

cover and fix the gearshift knob according to
the positioning requirement, see the chart (the
black one is positioning assist)

——Leave the pipe clamp at its natural position.

——Clamp nut, fasten by 25Nm.

——Try all the shifts, gear shifting should be

smooth and without stop, secure the validity of
the reverse gear lockup.

Fine adjustment:

——After a long time using of the vehicle, there will

be wear and tear between gearshift mechanism
parts which makes the space between shifts
too much bigger and difficult for gear shifting
then you need fine adjustment.

——Check the 1

st

shift position, loosen nut B, do as

the chart show: Put transmission on 1

st

shift

position, fasten bolt B by adjusting the
eccentric ring position to a=1.5mm.

— — Fasten clamp bolt (the transmission on the

neutral position), try all the shifts, which should
be smooth and easy.

——Try all the shifts gear shifting should be smooth

and without stop, secure the validity of the
reverse gear lockup.
