Brake Band Adjustment

If any of the abnormal shifting conditions shown in the following table are noted in a road test, the brake band must be adjusted.





ADJUSTMENT OF THE ADJUSTING SCREW



1. Using a socket wrench, immobilize the end of the 10 mm screw projecting on the left side of the transmission case, and loosen the nut with a double-end wrench.
- In the case of occurrence of problems 1 and 2 mentioned previously, perform the adjustment by loosening or tightening the nut within a range of 3/4 turn from this state.

CAUTION: Do not loosen excessively; otherwise, the band strut on the servo piston will drop off.

- In case of the occurrence of problems 1 and 4 from the table above, adjust as follows:
Tighten the adjusting screw to 9 Nm (78 inch lbs) torque, then back off three turns.

CAUTION: Do not overtighten the adjusting screw.

2. With the adjusting screw immobilized, tighten the lock nut.
Torque: 25 - 28 Nm (18 - 21 ft.lb)
