4. Shift the transaxle through each gear to verify the
gear shift lever centers in each gate as the internal
transaxle detents are felt. The lever should also
“detent” into 5th gear and reverse (Figure 38).
That is, the shift lever should not contact the side
of the metal “fingers” of each gate as the lever
enters the gate.

5. If the shifter does not align with the gates, loosen
the bolt and nut between the shift pivot and the
