# ELEMENTS OF THE AUTOMOBILE: TRANSMISSION \[PART 2\]

ELEMENTS OF THE AUTOMOBILE: TRANSMISSION \[PART 2\] Produced: 1930 Description Shows, by animation, how the clutch shaft is connected directly to the transmission shaft when the auto is moving in high gear; how gears on the clutch shaft and the countershaft mesh to reduce the gear ratio; how the countershaft and the transmission shaft are connected for reduced gear ratios; how the power is transmitted to the propeller shaft by the transmission shaft; and how disengaging the clutch from the transmission assembly places the auto in neutral so that engine power is not transmitted beyond the freed clutch shaft. https://catalog.archives.gov/id/35647
