CAUTION
DO NOT LEAVE GEAR IN FORWARD WHEN SAILING. GEAR MUST BE IN NEUTRAL FOR FREE WHEELING OR SHIFTED INTO REVERSE TO LOCK PROPELLER
WHILE SAILING.
A. DESCRIPTION:
The Hurth transmission housing is made of a high strength aluminum alloy that is resistant to sea water. The transmission is equipped with shaved and case hardened helical gears and with shafts mounted in heavy-duty roller bearings. Forward and reverse is accomplished by a mechanical friction clutch.
Gear shifting is mechanical and requires only a minimum effort on the gear lever. Precision setting or readjustment of the shifting control (Morse or Teleflex) is not required.
The transmission is designed to permit reversing at full engine speed. TO BE USED ONLY IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY!
B. SERVICING:
The transmission is filled with Type AFT or DEXRON II transmission fluid at the factory during the engine load test.

_____ Recheck and fill the gear box with the prescribed oil up to the FULL INDENTED RING MARK ON THE DIPSTICK (approximately 1/4" up from bottom of stick). Do not overfill.
When checking the oil level, DIPSTICK TO BE INSERTED ONLY - DO NOT SCREW IN. Tighten the dipstick after adding oil or checking the oil level.
Placing in service after storage
If the transmission was completely filled with oil for storage and preservation, make sure to drain the excess oil to the proper level. Use new oil if necessary.

Automatic Transmission Fluid, "AFT Type A oil only" according to specification DEXRON II (General Motors) and M2
C33 G (Ford).
ALWAYS USE THE SAME GRADE AND TYPE OF OIL WHEN ADDING OR CHANGING OIL.
WARNING: ADDITIVES SUCH AS MOYBDENUM SULPHITE OR THE LIKE MUST NOT BE CONTAINED IN THE OIL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
C. MAINTENANCE:
1. Oil level in the transmission should be checked weekly. Oil level: See Servicing.
2. Changing oil.
Change oil after first 25 hours of operation. Then change every 300 hours of operation, or at least at intervals of once a year or season.
3. Placing transmission in storage.
If the transmission is put out of operation for long periods of time under unfavorable environmental conditions, it should be protected against corrosion by filling it completely with oil of the same, grade and type. Otherwise, it should be operated briefly, with a good oxidation inhibiting oil to allow the agent to contact all parts of the gearbox.
D. GENERAL INFORMATION:
1. General
If the transmission is being painted, care should be taken to protect the oil seals at the output shaft in back of the coupling. Make sure the venting hole on the oil filter screw is not covered with paint.
The assembly - (engine/transmission) should be flex mounted in the boat to avoid distortion of the transmission housing.
2. Angle of installation
The angle of installation must not exceed 150 in relation to the water line in operation. See illustration
(View
Transmission Diagrams)
3. Operating temperature
Proper ventilation of the engine and transmission compartment should be insured. The operating temperature of the transmission oil should not exceed 250° F. (130° C)
4. Flexible couplings (Optional)
The flex coupling between engine coupling and propeller shaft should be designed to absorb bending stresses to compensate for minor angular deviations after installation. Coupling alignment must be checked with the boat in the water, both rigid and flexible.
5. Gear shifting
Shifting requires little effort, therefore, both the single and dual lever control works well on this transmission. Dual lever is considered the standard in most cases.
Shift lever: Upon loosening the retaining screw, the shifting lever can be rotated as required to meet the control cable connection. The operating cable or rod assembly should be positioned perpendicular to the shifting lever in its neutral position
(View
Transmission Diagrams).
The shifting travel, measured at the pivot point of the shifting lever, must be at least 1-3/8" (35mm) from neutral to forward and neutral to reverse position. Longer shifting movements have no detrimental effect on the transmission
(View
Transmission Diagrams), however, insure lever travels beyond the detent in both directions when shifting.
When shifting transmission, engine RPM should be returned to idle, then shift transmission firmly from one direction to another. A slight pause in neutral will allow propeller to slow and add life to transmission.
When running the engine to charge batteries in neutral, engage transmission for 1 or 2 minutes every 2 or 3 hours to lubricate all internal parts.
To lock the propeller vertically in line with the keel, mark the coupling and POSITION GEAR IN REVERSE. This will prevent slippage and damage to the clutch.
CAUTION: THE CABLE MUST BE MOUNTED TO THE SHIFT
LEVER AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE TO INSURE EQUAL TRAVEL FROM NEUTRAL TO FORWARD
AND NEUTRAL TO REVERSE.
CAUTION: TRANSMISSION MUST BE LEFT IN NEUTRAL WHEN
SAILING, DO NOT LEAVE IN FORWARD GEAR WHEN SAILING WITHOUT POWER AS IT
WILL DAMAGE GEAR. |
