transmits the torque to the transaxle. A symmetr ical 3-element, 1-stage, 2-phase type is used here.
OIL PUMP
Utilizes a vane-type oil pump that is driven by the engi ne through the oil pump drive chain in order to increase
efficiency of pump discharge volume in low-speed zone and optimize pump discharge volume in high-speed
zone. Discharged oil from oil pump is transmitted to contro l valve. It is used as the oil of primary and second-
ary pulley operation, the oil of clutch operation, and the lubricant for each part.
PLANETARY GEAR
• A planetary gear type of forward/reverse selector me chanism is installed between the torque converter and
primary pulley.
• The power from the torque converter is input via the i nput shaft, operating a wet multi-plate clutch by means
of hydraulic pressure to switch between forward and reverse driving.

BELT & PULLEY
It is composed of a pair of pulleys (the groove width is changed freely in the axial direction) and the chain belt
.The groove width changes according to wrapping radius of chain belt and pulley from low status to overdrive

Torque converter Increases engine torque and transmits it to the transaxle.
Oil pump Utilizes a vane-type oil pump that is driven by the engine through the oil pump drive chain in order to
increase efficiency of pump discharge volume in low-speed zone and optimize pump discharge volume
in high-speed zone. Discharged oil from oil pump is tr ansmitted to control valve. It is used as the oil of
primary and secondary pulley operation, the oil of clutch operation, and the lubricant for each part.
Forward clutch The forward clutch is wet and multiple plate type clutch that consists of clutch drum, piston, drive plate,
and driven plate. It is a clutch to move the vehicle forward by activating piston hydraulically, engaging
plates, and directly connecting sun gear and input shaft.
Reverse brake The reverse brake is a wet multiple-plate type brake that consists of transaxle case, piston, drive plate,
and driven plate. It is a brake to move the vehicle in reverse by activating piston hydraulically, engaging
plates, and fixing planetary gear.
Internal gear The internal gear is directly connected to forward clutch drum. It is a gear that moves the outer edge of
pinion planet of planet carrier. It transmits power to move the vehicle in reverse when the planet carrier
is fixed.
Planet carrier Composed of a carrier, pinion planet, and pinion shaft. This gear fixes and releases the planet carrier in
order to switch between forward and reverse driving.
Sun gear Sun gear is a set part with planet carrier and internal gear. It transmits transmitted force to primary fixed
sheave. It rotates in forward or reverse direction according to activation of either forward clutch or re-
verse brake.
Input shaft The input shaft is directly connected to forward clutch drum and transmits traction force from torque con-
verter. In shaft center, there are holes for hydraulic distribution to primary pulley and hydraulic distribution
for lockup ON/OFF.
Primary pulley It is composed of a pair of pulleys (the groove width is changed freely in the axial direction) and the chain belt. The groove width changes according to wrapping radius of steel belt and pulley from low status to
overdrive status continuously with non-step. It is controlled with the oil pressures of primary pulley and
secondary pulley.
Secondary pulley
Chain belt
Manual shaft When the manual shaft is in the P position, the parking rod that is linked to the manual shaft rotates the
parking pole. When the parking pole rotates, it engages with the parking gear, fixing the parking gear. As
a result, the secondary pulley that is integrated with the parking gear is fixed.
