In this transmission angular cone bearings are used for all shafts. These bearings require a certain amount of play and pretension. The required amount of bearing play and pretension is achieved at the production stage by using shims under the angular cone bearing in the transmission housing.

A particular benefit of this 3-shaft transmission is that the gear wheel for 3rd gear is also used for 5th gear.
| Power Flow in the Individual Gears |
The following diagrams shows the flow of power in the individual gears.
