PAR 18-19
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION OF
CHAP 2, SEC II
MAIN TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY
blies 10 and 69 are installed through lugs
on the rotating brake apply cams. Adjust-
ing nuts 20 (fig. 378, fold-out 7) and 14
(fig. 380, fold-out 9) are installed on the
threaded ends of link assemblies 10 and 69
( f i g . 3 7 9 , f o l d - o u t 8 ) . R a t c h e t s 2 1 ( f i g.
378, fold-out 7) and 15 (fig. 380, fold-out
9) are held in engagement with the adjust-
ing nuts by springs 22 (fig. 378, fold-out 7)
and 16 (fig. 380, fold-out 9), washers 23
(fig. 378, fold-out 7) and 17 (fig. 380, fold-
out 9), and pins 24 (fig. 378, fold-out 7)
and 18 (fig. 380, fold-out 9).
( 3 ) T w o a i r v a l v e p l a t e a s s e m-
blies 36 and 43 (fig. 379, fold-out 8) are
pivoted on pin 45 in bracket 40. Springs
39 and 42 hold the valves in a closed posi-
tion over passages in the transmission rear

anically applied.
b. Operation (fig. 379, fold-out 8)
( 1 ) W h e n e i t h e r o f b r a k e a p p l y
s h a f t s 8 4 o r 9 7 a r e r o t a t e d ( c l o c k w i se
viewed from right of transmission), brake
apply cam 75 or 83 moves the cam follow-
er 6 or 62 and cam follower link 3 or 60
forward. Link assembly 10 or 69, being
connected to the cam follower link, moves
forward. This rotates the rotating brake
cam clockwise, applying the brake.
(2) Simultaneous with rotation of
the brake cam to apply position, brake air
valve 36 or 43 is forced to closed position
by its spring. Note that the valves are held
open (upward) against spring pressure (by
the brake cam extensions) when the brakes
are released. The air valves control the
admission of air to the intake side of the
brake coolant pump. Thus, when brakes
are applied, no air is admitted and oil is
pumped.
When brakes are released, air is
admitted, preventing the pumping of oil.
(3) Brake adjustment is made by
rotating the brake adjusting nuts. A large
screwdriver can be inserted in radial slots
in the nuts. The spring-loaded ratchets re-
tain the nuts in the position to which they
are adjusted.
19. RELAY VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY
a. Components (fig. 382, fold-out 11)
(1) The relay valve body assembly
includes valve body 73, cover assembly 60,
cover 68, plug 78, springs 66 and 75, pin 74
a n d v a l v e s 6 4 , 6 5 a n d 7 6 . I n a d d i t i o n,
bolts, gaskets, plugs, washers and minor
parts are included.
Valves 64, 65 and 76
are identical. Springs 66 and 75 are iden-
tical.
T h e v a l v e s a n d v a l v e b o d y a re
aluminum.
(2) Valves 64 and 65 are installed
in a common bore in valve body 73. The
short stem ends of these valves butt to-
gether and both valves move lengthwise
as a unit in their bore. Spring 66 moves
them to one end of the bore when no hy-
draulic pressure acts at that end. Cover
68 closes the spring end of the bore. Cover
assembly 60 closes the opposite end.
( 3 ) V a l ve
76
is
installed
in
another bore which is parallel to the first
bore. Spring 75 moves the valve to the
end of the bore opposite the spring when
no hydraulic pressure acts at that end.
Pin 74 limits the movement of the valve
against spring 75. Plug 78 closes the bore.
(4) The bores in which the valves
operate have annular channels which re-
ceive oil from or direct oil to passages
which register with passages in oil transfer
plate 79 upon which the valve body assem-
bly is mounted. Transfer plate 79 is, in
turn,
m o u n t e d u p o n t r a n s m i s s i o n r e ar
housing cover 95 and directs oil to various
passages in the cover.
( 5 ) V a l v e s 6 4 , 6 5 a n d 7 6 e a ch
have five lands which separate the various
o i l p a s s a g e s . L e n g t h w i s e m o v e m e n t s of
the
valves
interconnect
certain
passages
when the valves are at one end of the
bore, and other when at the opposite end.
b . Operation (fig. 372, fold-out 1 and
fig. 382, fold-out 11)
