NOTE:An incorrectly adjusted external shift mechanism can be the cause of damage in the transmission. Refer to the current workshop literature for an exact description of how to adjust the shift mechanism.
The 1st/2nd, 3rd/4th and 5th/6th gear selector rods and the reverse gear selector rod are operated by the main selector shaft. The selector detents hold the selector rods in position. During the gear shift process, the main selector shaft (5) makes a turning movement first of all, so that it can then be slid axially.

The inner gearshift mechanism of the MT82 6-speed manual transmission is a new development. In order to ensure secure bearing mounting of the selector rods, these are passed through a central bearing mounting plate. The central bearing mounting plate is in turn bolted to the housing.
All selector forks and swinging selector forks are made of 5mm thick steel.
The sliding elements of the selector forks are made of a newly developed plastic material, which also demonstrates high resistance to wear.

Only one gear can ever be engaged, because of the selector interlock. When the transmission is in the neutral position the selector interlock is free to move on the radial notches of the selector shafts. Because of the slots in the selector interlock, it can be slid horizontally (see illustration).
If a selector rod is moved during a gear shift process, because of the change in the selector shaft diameter, it moves the selector interlock.
The selector interlock slides into the radial notches of all the other selector rods and locks them.
