TRANSMISSION K 21. Insert the fourth gear clutch hub on the top of the direct clutch and verify that the fourth gear clutch hub rotates smoothly when turned clockwise and locks when turned counterclockwise. If it does not, then the one-way clutch is installed upside down. Caution Applying compressed air to the assembled clutch pack for longer than 3 seconds at a time will dam- age the seal. 22. Install the direct clutch onto the drum support along with the seal rings. Apply compressed air to the oil passage and check the clutch operation. Air pressure: 392 kPa {4.0 kglcm2, 67 psi) max.
