Some parts and mechanisms of automotive technology are often hidden, and drivers do not always have an idea about them and their purpose. One of these mechanisms is the backstage of the checkpoint. This part of the mechanism is sometimes confused with the gear lever itself. It is a complex, multi-part mechanism of automotive engineering.
Checkpoint backstage
The rocker is a complex compound mechanism designed to transfer movement from the gear lever to the rod of the box itself. Judging by the purpose, the gearbox rocker should be made of hard materials and have a strong enough mount to avoid malfunction, as this will lead to the failure of the car.
The linkage is prone to damage, due to lack of or a small amount of lubricant. And also damage can be caused by dirt and dust or mechanical damage. Therefore, during the operation of the car, it is necessary to constantly monitor its cleanliness and good condition. During operation, the gearbox wings should be paidattention to some factors under which the mechanism should be replaced or repaired:
- Increased play in the gear lever, and this is noticeable in neutral and at a position at speed.
- Confusion when switching gears, when instead of one, another speed is switched on the gearbox.
- Shifting becomes tight, more effort has to be applied.
- The appearance of uncharacteristic noises when switching, the presence of a crunch.
If the above symptoms of a malfunction of the transmission stage appear, it is necessary to contact specialists to eliminate them.
Device
The design features of the gearbox backstage are constantly changing. Manufacturers are trying to improve the device of the mechanism, to facilitate the efforts applied when switching speeds. They strive to reduce the cost of the unit by using modern materials and improving the mechanism.
The main parts of the checkpoint backstage are the following elements:
- shift lever;
- gearbox linkage;
- fork and fork finger;
- gland retainer.
And do not forget: the backstage mechanism includes a cable, a return spring, the body itself, as well as the gearshift lever. The tuned operation of all components of the mechanism ensures the correct and uninterrupted functioning of the gearbox.
Adjustment
Often, inexperienced and novice motorists, in the event of problems with the backstage of the checkpoint, without understanding, tend tocompletely replace the mechanism. This is a big mistake used by unscrupulous craftsmen in service centers, earning good money on it.
Very often, a simple adjustment of some parts of the gearshift mechanism helps. In this case, the adjustment will only help with the working link, you first need to make sure of this. To adjust the gearshift stage, drive onto the overpass, providing access to the lower part of the car.
After you need to carry out the necessary manipulations described in the operating instructions for automotive equipment:
- While on a hill or overpass, put the car on the handbrake, substitute wheel chocks under the wheels.
- With the engine off, move the gear lever to the extreme left position, then tighten the clamp under the car. Often a few millimeters are enough to eliminate, for example, the backlash of the gearbox.
Do not forget about the preventive maintenance of the backstage - removing dirt, foreign objects on the elements of the mechanism, replenishing a sufficient amount of lubricant, but do not exceed the required amount.
Destination
Gearbox yokes are designed to properly transmit translational motion from the gearshift lever to the gearbox stem. Good condition will allow uninterrupted operation of automotive equipment and will not disable it.

Band brake: device, principle of operation, adjustment and repair
The brake system is designed to stop various mechanisms or vehicles. Another purpose is to prevent movement when the instrument or machine is at rest. There are several varieties of these devices, among which the band brake is one of the most successful
Adjustment of the carburetor on the moped "Alpha". How right?
If one of the parts breaks down, the motorcycle will already work uncoordinated, intermittently or not work at all. Another thing is the setting. It may be needed after an accident, winter, or after a break-in. Carburetor adjustment is often an almost mandatory item in maintenance, especially if the owner has identified problems with it
VAZ valve adjustment (classic): work scheme
Valve adjustment according to the classical scheme is a very important part of knowledge for owners of the VAZ car brand. The process is simple, but for the success of the implementation it is important to remember and follow the correct scheme of work. How should the VAZ 2107 valves be adjusted?
Valve clearance and adjustment
In any internal combustion engine, valve mechanisms are used to organize normal gas distribution. A small part of the torque is taken to the crankshaft drive. In the process of heating, the metal has the ability to expand. Consequently, the dimensions of the motor parts change. The dimensions of the timing elements also change. If the timing drive does not have a thermal valve clearance, then when the engine is heated to its optimum operating temperatures, the valves will not close tightly
Split gear: what is it, installation and adjustment
There are a lot of interesting details in the car, which only auto mechanics or people who are very passionate about technology know about. One of these parts is a split gear. Tuning enthusiasts also know about this element. Let's find out what this detail is and why it is needed
