Screw (F) behind plug (102) changes the first to second speed upshift point. Screw (J) behind plug (104) changes the third to fourth and fifth to sixth speed upshift points. Screw (H) behind plug (103) changes the second to third, fourth to fifth and sixth to seventh speed upshift points. One clockwise turn of screws (F), (H) and (J) makes the upshift points of that specific speed change, (see SHIFT POINT CHART) go UP approximately 15 engine rpm.

------ WARNING! ------

Before an adjustment is made to the shift points, make sure the rear drive shaft is disconnected from the transmission.

--------WARNING!------

1. Disconnect hose (105) from sequence and pressure control valve (46). Install the swivel tee between the end of hose (105) and sequence and pressure control valve (46).

2. Connect the hose assembly and the 0 to 200 psi (0 to 1380 kPa) pressure gauge on the swivel tee and also at pressure tap (DD) for the governor.

3. Start the engine and let the transmission oil get to normal temperature of operation while in NEUTRAL position.

4. Install a tachometer.

46. Sequence and pressure control valve. 105. Hose from sequence and pressure control valve to torque converter.

5. Check engine high idle with the governor control pedal. Adjust the linkage and/or governor to get correct high idle.

6. Use the procedure given on Page 7 to check the pressure setting of the priority valve.

7. Check the pressure of the oil to the governor at pressure tap (DD). Pressure must be approximately 100 psi (690 kPa). If the pressure is not correct, turn screw (A) to get the correct pressure.

NOTE: Oil supply pressure for the governor is changed when adjustment is made to downshift points.

8. Use the air pressure regulator to control engine speed at the transmission.

9. Use the procedure that follows to put the shift points out of adjustment.

a. Turn screw (F) out (counterclockwise) three turns.

b. Turn screw (H) in (clockwise) four turns.

c. Turn screw (J) in (clockwise) three turns.

10. With the engine running, transmission in NEUTRAL, shift the transmission selector lever or the shaft on top of the transmission to 3rd speed position.

11. Increase engine speed to 2130 ± 30 rpm for the 2nd to 3rd speed upshift. The transmission must shift from 1st to 2nd as the engine speed is increased. With engine speed constant at 2130 rpm, turn screw (H) out (counterclockwise) until the transmission makes a shift to 3rd speed.

12. Make sure engine speed is constant at 2130 ± 30 rpm for the 3rd to 4th speed upshift. Move the transmission selector lever or the shaft on top of the transmission to 4th speed position. Turn screw (J) out (counterclockwise) until the transmission makes a shift to 4th speed.

13. Decrease engine speed slowly to 1502 ± 30 rpm for the 4th to 3rd speed downshift. If the engine speed is not correct for the 4th to 3rd speed downshift, turn screw (A) to get the downshift within tolerance.


PRESSURE TAPS FOR SHIFT GOVERNOR
AA. Shift pressure tap "A" (first through third). BB. Shift pressure tap "B" (third through fifth). CC. Shift pressure tap "C" (fifth through seventh). DD. Supply pressure tap for governor.

NOTE: One turn of screw (A) will change the downshift rpm approximately 20 rpm. The rpm will decrease when screw (A) is turned clockwise and will increase when screw (A) is turned counterclockwise. Any movement of screw (A) will also change the upshift speeds.

NOTE: The transmission may downshift from 3rd to 2nd at the same time it downshifts from 4th to 3rd. This is because both downshift speeds are the same.

14. Decrease engine speed slowly to 1417 ± 30 rpm for a 2nd to 1st speed downshift. Turn screw (F) in (clockwise) until the transmission makes a shift from 2nd to 1st speed.

15. Check and make a record of all upshift and downshift speeds. Decrease the engine speed 200 rpm before the transmission selector lever or the shaft on top of the transmission is moved to the next higher speed.

16. Make a comparison of all speeds with the speeds given in the SHIFT POINT CHART. Make adjustments to the screws to get all shift points as near as possible to the mean (average) speed that is given in the chart.

EXAMPLE:

If the shift points, controlled by the same adjustment screw [screw (H) for 2nd to 3rd, 4th to 5th and 6th to 7th, screw (J) for 3rd to 4th and 5th to 6th], are not all at the correct engine speed, they must be adjusted so the mean of the shift points is at the mean engine speed given in the SHIFT POINT CHART. See the example chart that follows:

17. To check the lock-up clutch shift point:

a. Move the transmission selector lever to FIRST speed position. The transmission must shift to first speed. Increase engine speed to 1700 rpm. The pressure of the gauge at the tee fitting for the lock-up clutch must have indication of lock-up clutch engagement [approximately 160 psi (1100 kPa)]. The indication will be a shift from converter drive to engagement of the lock-up clutch (direct drive) when engine speed is 1509 ± 15 rpm. An adjustment can be made to adjustment screw (N) on the sequence and pressure control valve to get the engagement at the correct engine speed.

b. Make the engine speed go down to 1390 ± 30 rpm. The pressure indication on the gauge must have indication of lock-up clutch disengagement (not engaged) [0 psi (0 kPa)].

c. Increase the engine speed to 1700 rpm. Slowly make the engine speed go down. Lock-up clutch must disengage.

d. Turn adjustment screw (N), if needed, to let the lock-up clutch operate at the correct engine speed.

18. If an adjustment can not be made to the shift points or a shift point, make a check of the operation of the governor as follows:

a. Use a 0 to 200 psi (0 to 1380 kPa) pressure gauge to check pressure taps (AA), (BB) and (CC).

NOTE: Use the same gauge to check all three pressures so that there will be no error in the readings.

b. Refer to SHIFT GOVERNOR PERFORMANCE CHART for approximate pressure of the governor at each shift point.

c. If the pressures of the governor are not correct, clean or install a new governor and check the pressures again.

d. Remove pressure gauges at pressure taps (AA), (BB) and (CC) and do Steps 1 through 16 again.

19. Shut off the engine. Remove the pressure gauges and the tee fittings. Connect hose (105) to sequence and pressure control valve (46).

11. Increase engine speed to 2100 ± 30 rpm for the 2nd to 3rd speed upshift. The transmission must shift from 1st to 2nd as the engine speed is increased. With engine speed constant at 2100 rpm, turn screw (H) out (counterclockwise) until the transmission makes a shift to 3rd speed.

12. Make sure engine speed is constant at 2100 ± 30 rpm for the 3rd to 4th speed upshift. Move the transmission selector lever or the shaft on top of the transmission to 4th speed position. Turn screw (J) out (counterclockwise) until the transmission makes a shift to 4th speed.

13. Decrease engine speed slowly to 1480 ± 30 rpm for 4th to 3rd speed downshift. If the engine speed is not correct for the 4th to 3rd speed downshift, turn screw (A) to get the downshift within tolerance.

NOTE: One turn of screw (A) will change the downshift rpm approximately 20 rpm. The rpm will decrease when screw (A) is turned clockwise and will increase when screw (A) is turned counterclockwise. Any movement of screw (A) will also change the upshift speeds.

NOTE: The transmission may downshift from 3rd to 2nd at the same time it downshifts from 4th to 3rd. This is because both downshift speeds are the same.

14. Decrease engine speed slowly to 1399 ± 30 rpm for a 2nd to 1st speed downshift. Turn screw (F) in (clockwise) until the transmission makes a shift from 2nd to 1st speed.

15. Check and make a record of all upshift and downshift speeds. Decrease the engine speed 200 rpm before the transmission selector lever of the shaft on top of the transmission is moved to the next higher speed.

16. Make a comparison of all speeds with the speeds given in the SHIFT POINT CHART. Make adjustments to the screws to get all shift points as near as possible to the mean (average) speed that is given in the chart.

EXAMPLE:

If the shift points, controlled by the same adjustment screw [screw (H) for 2nd to 3rd, 4th to 5th and 6th to 7th, screw (J) for 3rd to 4th and 5th to 6th], are not all at the correct engine speed, they must be adjusted so the mean of the shift points is at the mean engine speed given in the SHIFT POINT CHART. See the example chart that follows:

17. To check the lock-up clutch shift point:

a. Move the transmission selector lever to FIRST speed position. The transmission must shift to first speed. Increase engine speed to 1700 rpm. The pressure of the gauge at the tee fitting for the lock-up clutch must have indication of lock-up clutch engagement [approximately 160 psi (1100 kPa)]. The indication will be a shift from converter drive to engagement of the lock-up clutch (direct drive) when engine speed is 1450 ± 15 rpm. An adjustment can be made to adjustment screw (N) on the sequence and pressure control valve to get the engagement at the correct engine speed.

b. Make the engine speed go down to 1340 ± 30 rpm. The pressure indication on the gauge must have indication of lock-up clutch disengagement (not engaged) [0 psi (0 kPa)].

c. Increase the engine speed to 1700 rpm. Slowly make the engine speed go down. Lock-up clutch must disengage.

d. Turn adjustment screw (N), if needed, to let the lock-up clutch operate at the correct engine speed.

18. If an adjustment can not be made to the shift points or a shift point, make a check of the operation of the governor as follows:

a. Use a 0 to 200 psi (0 to 1380 kPa) pressure gauge to check pressure taps (AA), (BB) and (CC).

NOTE: Use the same gauge to check all three pressures so that there will be no error in the readings.


PRESSURE TAPS FOR SHIFT GOVERNOR
AA. Shift pressure tap "A" (first through third). BB. Shift pressure tap "B" (third through fifth). CC. Shift pressure tap "C" (fifth through seventh). DD. Supply pressure tap for governor.

b. Refer to SHIFT GOVERNOR PERFORMANCE CHART for approximate pressures of the governor at each shift point.

c. If the pressures of the governor are not correct, clean or install a new governor and check the pressures again.

d. Remove pressure gauges at pressure taps (AA), (BB) and (CC) and do Steps 1 through 16 again.

19. Shut off the engine. Remove the pressure gauges and the tee fitting. Connect hose (105) to sequence and pressure control valve (46).
