5. Recheck the shift cable adjustment in forward shift position.
The correct shift adjustment will position the cam far enough
on the roller to lock the reverse gate into forward position.
Push on the reverse gate by hand to verify it is locked into
position. The reverse gate should not move when pushed
toward the neutral position.
IMPORTANT: The forward locking of the reverse gate must be
met. If not, readjust the shift cable.
