The mechanical cables are in a cable assembly. In the event of a fault or damage with any of these the whole mechanical cable assembly must be replaced.

The cable sleeves are secured using quick connectors in the gearshift assembly and in the cable bracket on the transmission.

The mechanical transmission cable for lateral travel is adjustable lengthwise. The adjuster is positioned on the mounting towards the lever on the transmission (1).

The gear selector assembly is made of plastic. It has rubber feet (to reduce noise and vibration).

The gear selector assembly has a lever and a lever arm. There is a return spring on the lateral movement lever.
