LIST OF WARNINGS
This Manual contains the following Warnings
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BE FAMILIAR WITH ALL OF THEM.

The device described below is intended to be used for dipstick calibration only.
Do not attempt to check actual transmission fluid level with this method.
Checking actual transmission fluid level with this method may require a
technician to be under the vehicle with the engine running and SHOULD NOT
BE ATTEMPTED.
Shut off the engine, set the parking brake and/or emergency brakes, chock the
vehicle wheels and take any other steps necessary to keep the vehicle from
moving while doing Steps (4) through (9).
To help avoid injury or property damage caused by sudden and unexpected
vehicle movement, do not check the fluid level until you:
Put the transmission in N (Neutral).
Apply the parking brake and emergency brakes and make sure they are
properly engaged.
Chock the wheels and take any other steps necessary to keep the vehicle
from moving.
To help avoid injury or property damage caused by sudden and unexpected
vehicle movement, do not start a stationary stall test until you:
Put the transmission in N (Neutral)...and
Apply the parking brake and emergency brakes and make sure
they are properly engaged...and
Chock the wheels and take any other steps necessary to keep the
vehicle from moving.
Do not burn discarded Teflon seals; toxic gases are produced by burning.
Never dry bearings by spinning them with compressed air. A spinning bearing
can disintegrate, allowing balls or rollers to become lethal flying projectiles.
Also, spinning a bearing without lubrication can damage the bearing.
The main pressure regulator valve spring is under approximately 85 lbs (380 N)
compression.
Be sure the forward-clutch hub and the fourth-clutch driving hub are installed
into the forward-clutch assembly. If these two hubs are installed into the fourthclutch housing assembly by mistake, the transmission will operate in reverse
when the driver selects any forward range.
Do not install forward-clutch hub 19 (Foldout 13,B) and fourth-clutch driving
hub 22 into the fourth-clutch housing assembly 12 (Foldout 14,A). If these two
hubs are installed into the fourth-clutch housing assembly by mistake, the
transmission will operate in reverse when the driver selects any forward range.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

a. Automatic Shifting. Automatic shifting is accomplished in all ranges on the HT 740(RS), HT 747,
HT 750, and HT 754CR transmissions. The HT 750DR
and HT 750DR DB transmissions must be manually
shifted into and out of first range, while the remaining
ranges are automatic. The design incorporates four
speeds forward and one reverse on the HT 740 models,
and five speeds forward and one reverse on the HT 750
models. All transmissions are designed for operation
with a diesel engine.
b. Torque Converter. A simple, three-element
torque converter transmits power from the engine to
the transmission gearing. The torque converter serves
as both a fluid coupling and a torque multiplier. Nine
combinations of torque converter elements may be
used. These give converter stall ratios of 2.65:1,
1.51:1, 1.74:1, 2.39:1, 1.78:1, 2.72:1, 2.45:1, 1.91:1,
and 2.70:1.
c. Lockup Clutch. This clutch automatically locks
the turbine element of the torque converter to the flywheel. When the turbine approaches the speed of the
pump, hydraulic pressure automatically applies the
lockup clutch. With the lockup clutch applied, engine
output is directed to the transmission gearing at a 1:1
speed ratio. A decrease in speed automatically releases
the lockup clutch.
d. Hydraulic Input Retarder
1. Hydraulic input retarders are optional on HT
700 Series transmissions. They assist in slowing the vehicle.
2. The input retarder, located between the torque
converter and transmission gearing, contains a
16

1. PTO(s) are optional on HT 700 Series transmissions. Two types of PTO(s) are available:
engine-driven and turbine-driven.
2. Some transmission converter housings have
provisions for mounting engine-driven PTO(s).
Access mounting pads are located on the right
side and left side of the converter housing.
3. Provision for a turbine-driven PTO gear is located on the upper-left side of the transmission
main housing.
f. Planetary Gearing, Clutches
1. Three planetary gear sets establish the four forward speeds and one reverse in the HT 740(RS)
and HT 747 transmissions. These gear sets are
controlled by five hydraulic-applied clutches.
All gearing is in constant mesh.
2. Four planetary gear sets establish the five forward speeds and one reverse in the HT 750 and
HT 754 transmissions. These gear sets are controlled by six hydraulic-applied clutches. All
gearing is in constant mesh.
g. Control Valve Body Assembly
1. Basic Description. The control valve body assembly is the brain of the transmission and is
hydraulically operated. Fluid passages, valves,
and springs are designed to allow the flow of
hydraulic fluid to predesignated areas. Through
variations of pressure and spring force, the
components in the valve body are hydraulically
moved at the precise time redirecting fluid to
preselected locations.
2. Conventional Controls. Conventional controls
are available in four speed and five speed models. In the four speed and DR models all range
lockup is controlled via the front (pitot) gover-

GENERAL INFORMATION
nor, which is dependent on engine speed and
load factors. The CR model has lockup with no
converter operation in third, fourth, or fifth
ranges.
3. Consistent Hydraulic Controls (CHC). CHC
controls are available on four speed models
only. The system provides no first lockup, with
lockup in second, third, and fourth ranges.
Lockup is interrupted via shuttle valves on all
lockup-to-lockup shifts. All functions are controlled by the rear governor. Refer to Paragraph
223b for a detailed explanation.
h. Output Transfer Housing (Dropbox) (Figures
17 and 18). Transmissions that have the suffix DB
in their model designations include a dropbox (transfer
gear housing) at the rear, instead of having the output
shaft in line with the input shaft. The dropbox provides
an in-line output and a front and/or rear output below
the input center line, at a radius of 20 inches (508
mm). It also provides five angular output positions:

4 below and 45 degrees to the left


5 below and 60 degrees to the left
i. Output Disconnects. Output disconnects are
available on all dropbox models. Any desired combination of disconnects can be assembled. Rear disconnects are shown in Figure 18 and on Foldout 23,A. A
front disconnect is shown on Foldout 23,B.

15.

CAUTION:
Failure to lift the driving wheels off the road, disconnect the driveline, or remove the axle shafts
before pushing or towing can cause serious transmission damage.
Refer to SA1334EN for operating instructions.

Section 2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


21.

SCOPE

d. Remote Mount (Dropbox Models)

This section describes the transmission components and


explains their functions. It also explains the hydraulic
system and the torque paths.

22.

TRANSMISSION MOUNTING

a. Direct Mount (Straight-Through Models)


1. Mounting converter housing 16 (Foldout
10,B) to the engine bell housing, and coupling
transmission flywheel 12 (Foldout 9,A) to the
engine provide a direct drive from engine to
transmission.
2. This type of mounting requires that a minimum
of ten grade-8 bolts, including two at the
uppermost bolt holes in the converter housing
to properly retain the converter housing to the
engine housing.
b. Remote Mount (Straight-Through Models)
1. A remote mounting is provided for transmissions that are mounted to the vehicle and separated from the engine (Foldout 9,B).
2. This type of mounting requires that the transmission be supported at both front and rear. A
bracket from the frame to the side pads on the
converter supports the front. A second bracket
supporting the rear may be mounted to the top
pads on the transmission rear cover and the
vehicle frame.
c. Direct Mount (Dropbox Models)
1. Mounting converter housing 16 (Foldout 10,B)
to the engine bell housing, and coupling transmission flywheel 12 (Foldout 9,A) to the
engine provide a direct drive from engine to
transmission.
2. Dropbox models utilizing this type of mounting require proper support. It is recommended
the transmission be cradle mounted between
the mounting pads on the side of the engine
housing and the mounting pads on the side of
the dropbox.

1. A remote mounting is provided for transmissions that are mounted to the vehicle and separated from the engine.
2. This type of mounting requires that the front
and rear of the transmission be supported.
Support the front by attaching a trunnion
mounting bracket onto the front cover hub
and to the vehicle frame. Support the rear by
attaching a bracket from the dropbox side
pads to the vehicle frame.
3. Flywheel 12 (Foldout 9,A) (used on direct
mountings) is removed and replaced by drive
cover 7 (Foldout 9,B) and front cover 4.
4. A coupling or flange is installed onto the input
shaft (integral part to drive cover 7), providing
a remote connection.

23.

INPUT DRIVE

a. Direct Drive. Steel laminated flexplate assembly 2 (Foldout 9,A) connects the engine crankshaft
and transmission flywheel assembly 10. This flywheel serves as the engine flywheel. The inner circumference of the flexplate assembly bolts to an
adapter that bolts to the engine crankshaft. The outer
circumference of the plate bolts to flywheel 12. The
flywheel is bolted to torque converter pump 33 (Foldout 10,A). Starter ring gear 11 (Foldout 9,A) is
pressed onto the flywheel.
b. Remote Drive. The remote-mounted transmission is driven by a shaft from the engine through universal joints, to the input flange that is splined to the
converter input drive housing assembly. This housing
assembly is bolted to the torque converter pump.

24.

TORQUE CONVERTER

a. Description (Foldout 10,A). The torque converter consists of three elements pump assembly
32, stator assembly 13, and turbine assembly 8.
These are cast aluminum vaned elements. Pump
assembly 32 is the input element and is driven by the
engine through the flywheel. Turbine assembly 8 is
the output element and is splined to forward clutch
and turbine shaft assembly 5 (Foldout 13,B). Stator
assembly 13 (Foldout 10,A) is the reaction (torque
multiplying) element. The stator is supported on free-

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


wheel roller race 24 which is splined to a stationary
ground sleeve. This stator arrangement provides an
overrunning clutch that permits the stator to rotate
freely in one direction, but locks in the opposite
direction.
b. Operation
1. The torque converter assembly is continuously
filled with fluid, which provides converter
cooling and lubrication. When the converter is
driven by the engine, the pump vanes throw
fluid against the turbine vanes. The impact of
the fluid against the turbine vanes tends to
rotate the turbine.
2. The turbine, splined to the transmission input
shaft, transmits torque to the transmission
gearing. At engine idle speed, the impact of
fluid against the turbine vanes is minimal. At
high engine speed, the impact is much greater
than at idle, and high torque is produced by the
turbine.
3. Fluid thrown into the turbine flows to the stator
vanes. The stator vanes change the direction of
the fluid flow (when the stator is locked against
rotation), and directs the fluid to the pump in a
direction that assists pump rotation. The velocity and redirection of fluid to the pump enables
the torque converter to multiply input torque.
4. Greatest torque multiplication occurs when the
turbine is stalled and the pump is rotating at its
highest speed. Torque multiplication decreases
as the turbine rotates and gains speed.
5. When the turbine speed approaches the speed
of the pump, fluid flowing to the stator begins
striking the back sides of the stator vanes. This
rotates the stator in the same direction as the
turbine and pump. At this point, torque multiplication stops and the converter becomes, in
effect, a fluid coupling.

22

6. As explained in Steps (1) through (5), the


torque converter accomplishes three main
functions. First, it acts as a disconnect clutch
because little torque is transmitted at engine
idle speed. Second, it multiplies torque at low
turbine/high pump speed to give greater starting or driving effort when needed. And third, it
acts as a fluid coupling to efficiently transmit
engine torque to the transmission gearing during drive.

25.

LOCKUP CLUTCH

a. Description (Foldout 10,A). The lockup clutch


consists mainly of three elements piston 3, clutch
plate 4, and backplate 5. These elements are located
inside the flywheel. The piston and backplate rotate
with the converter pump. The clutch plate is located
between the piston and backplate and is splined to
the converter turbine.
b. Operation (Foldout 10,A). The lockup shift valve
directs clutch-apply pressure to the lockup-clutch piston when sufficient rotational speed is achieved by the
forward clutch and turbine shaft assembly. The clutchapply pressure forces the piston to compress the
lockup-clutch plate against the backplate, locking all
three elements together. When this occurs, the converter pump and turbine are locked together providing
a direct drive from the engine. As rotational speed of
the forward clutch and shaft assembly decreases, the
lockup shift valve releases the lockup clutch.
c. Shift Points. Shift Point Tables 36 through 313
(Pages 313 through 320), show the speed (rpm) required to shift from one range to another during closed
or open throttle on transmissions in the 1800 to 3000
rpm range. It also shows the rpm at which the lockup
clutch is engaged and disengaged. The Tables are coded
alphabetically to indicate engine application. If the
transmission being serviced is not applicable to the
Shift Point Tables or to Table 21, Automatic Shift Sequence, contact the Allison Transmission Service Department.

TORQUE CONVERTER HOUSING

Converter housing 16 (Foldout 10,B) is machined


from cast aluminum. The front of the housing is
machined to mate with an SAE 1 engine flywheel
housing. The rear of the housing is machined to accept
either retarder plate assembly 2 or 19 (Foldout 12,B)
or front support and valve assembly 1 (Foldout 13,A),
and transmission housing assembly 7 (Foldout 16,B).
The converter housing encloses and supports the
torque converter elements and input-driven oil pump
assembly 1 (Foldout 10,B).

27.

HYDRAULIC INPUT RETARDER

a. The hydraulic input retarder (Foldout 12,B),


located between the converter and the range gearing,
consists of three main elements a rotor and two
stators. Rotor assembly 10 is a vaned member splined
to the turbine shaft. The front and rear stators consist
of vanes cast into the walls on each side of the
retarder rotor.
b. The rotor turns continuously at turbine shaft
speed. However, the retarder functions only when the
cavity around the rotor is filled with fluid. A manual
valve directs fluid which fills the cavity when retarder

23

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


operation is desired. The churning of the fluid between
the rotor and stators resists the rotation of the rotor. Part
of this energy is used to circulate the fluid through a
cooler to dissipate the heat generated. When the control
valve is released, the fluid in the retarder is evacuated.
c. The input retarder can be used to slow the vehicle
in traffic, on curves, or on downgrades. Maximum
retarder effect occurs in a lower hold ratio where the
speed of the rotor can be constantly maintained. The
throttle should be closed when the retarder is used.
Long continuous use increases the fluid temperature.
Short periods of full-release, to interrupt continuous
application, helps prevent overheating.

28.

OIL PUMP ASSEMBLY

a. Description (Foldout 10,B). Oil pump assembly 1


consists mainly of three elements: drive gear 5, driven
gears 8, and pump body 3. The oil pump assembly is
retained in the converter housing by six bolts. Driven
gears 7 are supported in the pump body by gear
shafts 6.
b. Operation (Foldout 10,B). When the converter
pump rotates, its rear hub drives pump drive gear 5.
Gear 5 is in mesh with driven gears 7. Therefore, as
the gears rotate, fluid is drawn into the inlet port and is
carried between the pump housing and the gear teeth
to the outlet side of the pump into the hydraulic system.

29.

FRONT SUPPORT AND VALVE


ASSEMBLY (Foldout 13,A)

The front support and valve assembly is connected to


the rear of the input retarder housing or to the rear of
the converter housing if the transmission does not have
an input retarder. It provides support for the forward
clutch and turbine shaft. Contained within the support
assembly are three valves: main pressure regulator
valve 3 (Foldout 13,A), lockup shift valve 8, and converter bypass valve 14.

210. DESIGNATION OF CLUTCHES,


PLANETARY GEAR SETS
a. Necessary for Clarity of Description
1. In this section and those following, uniform
designations for clutches and planetary gear
24

sets are used for all models in the HT 700


Series. In the first edition of the manual, which
covered only the HT 740 model transmission,
clutches were designated to match the transmissions forward range selections (first, second, third, fourth, and forward). With the introduction of later models with an additional
clutch and gear set, and the changes in functions of each clutch among models, such designation is no longer practical. Also, a similar situation exists for the planetary gear sets. The
first edition of the service manual covered only
the HT 740 model transmission, which
included only three gear sets. These were designated front, center, and rear for their relation
to the position of each other and to transmission front and rear. The five-speed models,
which have been added, include another gear
set. Therefore, it was necessary to assign uniform designations to each planetary gear set,
applicable to all models.
2. Accordingly, to avoid confusion in the designation of, and reference to, clutches and planetary gear sets, use the methods outlined in
Paragraphs 210b and c.
b. Clutch Designations. Each clutch in the same
physical location, regardless of model or clutch drive
function, has the same name. These uniform clutch
designations are shown in Figure 21.
c. Planetary Gear Set Designations. Each gear set
in the same physical location, regardless of model or
gear drive function, has the same name. These uniform
gear set designations are shown in Figure 21.

211. FORWARD CLUTCH AND


TURBINE SHAFT (Foldout 13,B)
a. Function Differs Among Models
1. The forward clutch in the HT 740 and HT 747
has multiple functions. When engaged simultaneously with first, second, third, or fourth
clutch, it produces first, second, third, or fourth
range, in that sequence.
2. In the HT 750CR, HT 754CR, and HT 750DR,
the forward clutch has multiple functions.
When engaged with low, first, second, third, or

3. Five of the clutch plates are internal-splined,
while the remaining five are external-tanged.
The internal-splined plates are splined to the

are splined to the forward-clutch housing.

fourth clutch, it produces first, second, third,


fourth, or fifth range, in that sequence.
b. Description
1. The forward clutch in models HT 740, HT 747,
HT 750CR, HT 754CR, and HT 750DR contains the same basic parts. Each model has a
clutch housing with turbine shaft attached, ten
clutch plates, a piston, a forward-clutch hub,
and a fourth-clutch driving hub.

c. Operation (Foldout 13,B)


1. Clutch housing and shaft assembly 5 rotate
when the converter turbine rotates. Fourthclutch driving hub 22 also rotates causing the
internal-splined plates of the fourth-clutch
pack to rotate.

2. The clutch housing contains an oil collector


ring attached to its OD and works in conjunction with a pitot tube to produce front governor
pressure. If front governor pressure is not
required, a rectangular steel block is used in
place of the pitot tube. The piston is positioned
inside the clutch housing in its bore and
retained by twenty piston return springs, a
spring retainer, and a snapring.

are compressed together. This locks forwardclutch hub 19 to the forward-clutch housing.
Because hub 19 is splined to the transmission
main shaft, the shaft rotates with the hub at
input speed.

3. The simultaneous application of two clutches is
necessary to produce one forward or one reverse
range. The forward clutch is applied only in forward ranges (refer to Paragraph 211a Steps (1)
and (2)). When the converter turbine rotates and
the forward clutch is applied, it drives the main
shaft.
4. Rotation of the oil (pitot) collector ring directs
fluid against the front governor (pitot tube) any
time the converter turbine rotates. Therefore,
an increase in turbine speed produces a proportional increase in front governor pressure.

212. FOURTH CLUTCH (Foldout 14,A)


a. Function Differs Among Models
1. The fourth clutch, in the HT 740 and HT 747,
has a dual function. When engaged simultaneously with the forward clutch, it produces
fourth range. When engaged with the first
clutch, it produces reverse range.
2. In the HT 750CR and HT 754CR, the fourth
clutch has a dual function. When engaged with
the forward clutch, it produces fifth range.
When engaged with the low clutch, it produces
reverse range.
3. In the HT 750DR, the fourth clutch has a dual
function. When engaged with the forward
clutch, it produces fifth range. When engaged
with the first clutch, it produces reverse range.
b. Description. The fourth clutch, for all models,
contains ten clutch plates, a clutch piston housing, and
a piston. Five plates are internal-splined and five plates
are external-tanged. The piston is positioned inside the
clutch housing in its bore and retained by twenty piston return springs, a spring retainer, and a snapring.
c. Operation (All Models) (Foldout 14,A)
1. Internal-splined clutch plates 4, driven by
fourth-clutch driving hub 22 (Foldout 13,B),
rotate any time the input shaft and the forwardclutch housing assembly rotate.
2. When hydraulic pressure is directed to the back
side of fourth-clutch piston 9 (Foldout 14,A),
clutch plates 4 and 5 are compressed together.
26

This locks internal-splined plates 4 to externaltanged plates 5 and to clutch housing 14.
3. Because center sun gear and shaft assembly 23
(Foldout 15,A or B, or Foldout 16,A) is splined
to the clutch housing, it rotates at input speed.

213. SECOND AND THIRD CLUTCH,


AND CENTER SUPPORT
(Foldout 14,B)
a. Function Differs Among Models
1. The second and third clutches, in the HT 740
and HT 747, perform only one function. When
engaged simultaneously with forward clutch,
the second clutch produces second range and
the third clutch produces third range.
2. The second and third clutches, in the
HT 750CR, HT 754CR, and HT 750DR, perform only one function. When engaged with
forward clutch, the second clutch produces
third range and the third clutch produces fourth
range.
b. Description
1. The second and third clutches, for all three
models, are composed of two identical pistons,
twenty-one clutch plates (13 in second clutch;
8 in third clutch), and a center support.
2. Pistons 9 and 20 are separated by a wall in center support housing assembly 15. Each piston
is retained in its bore by twenty piston return
springs 8 or 21, return spring retainer 7 or 22,
four self-locking retainer rings 6 or 23, and
snaprings 5 or 24.
3. Eight clutch plates are required for the third
clutch. The four internal-splined plates are
splined to the OD of the fourth-clutch housing
and are free to rotate. The four external-tanged
plates are splined to the transmission housing.
4. Thirteen clutch plates are required for the second clutch. The six internal-splined plates are
splined to the OD of the front carrier assembly
and are free to rotate. The seven externaltanged clutch plates are anchored against rotation to the transmission housing.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


5. The center support assembly is housed in the
transmission and located by an anchor bolt.
This ensures accurate oil passage hole alignment from the valve body to the second- and
third-clutch piston cavities.
c. Operation of Third Clutch (All Models)
(Foldout 14,B)
1. When hydraulic pressure is directed through
the oil passages in the center support to the
back side of clutch piston 9, clutch plates 3 and
4 are compressed together. This locks the
fourth-clutch housing to the transmission housing and prevents the fourth-clutch housing and
attached components from rotating.
2. With the application of the forward clutch in
conjunction with the third clutch, a reaction
within the planetary gearing produces a forward rotation (third gear ratio) of the output
shaft.
d. Operation of Second Clutch (All Models)
(Foldout 14,B)
1. When hydraulic pressure is directed through
the oil passages in the center support to the
front side of clutch piston 20, clutch plates 25
and 26 are compressed together. This locks the
front planetary carrier to the transmission
housing and prevents the carrier from rotating.
2. With the application of the forward clutch in
conjunction with the second clutch, a reaction
within the planetary gearing produces a forward rotation (second gear ratio) of the output
shaft.

214. FIRST CLUTCH (Foldout 18,A)

3. In the HT 750DR, the first clutch has a dual


function. When engaged with the forward
clutch, it produces second range. When
engaged with the fourth clutch, reverse range is
produced.
b. Description. The first clutch in all models contains thirteen clutch plates and a piston. The seven
external-tanged plates are held stationary by the transmission housing, while the six internal-splined plates
are free to rotate. The first clutch piston is positioned
in its bore and retained by the return springs and a
spring retainer.
c. Operation (HT 740, HT 747)
(Foldout 18,A)
1. When the first clutch is not engaged, internalsplined plates 2 are free to rotate. Rear planetary ring gear 4 also rotates freely because it is
splined to the internal-splined plates.
2. When hydraulic pressure is directed to the
back side of the piston (shown in phantom),
clutch plates 1 (Foldout 18,A) and 2 are compressed together. This locks the rotating internal-splined plates to the stationary externaltanged plates, preventing ring gear 4 from
rotating.
3. With the application of forward or fourth
clutch in conjunction with the first clutch (refer
to Paragraph 214a(1)), a reaction within the
planetary gearing produces either forward or
reverse rotation of the output shaft.
d. Operation (HT 750CR, HT 754CR)
(Foldout 18,A)
1. Refer to Paragraph 214c(1).

1. The first clutch, in the HT 740 and HT 747, has


a dual function. When engaged simultaneously
with the forward clutch, first range is produced. When engaged with the fourth clutch,
reverse range is produced.

2. When hydraulic pressure is directed to the


back side of the piston (shown in phantom),
clutch plates 1 (Foldout 18,A) and 2 are compressed together. This locks the rotating internal-splined plates to the stationary externaltanged plates, preventing ring gear 4 from
rotating.

2. In the HT 750CR and HT 754CR, the first


clutch has a single function. When engaged
with the forward clutch, second range is produced.

3. With the application of forward clutch in conjunction with first clutch, a reaction within the
planetary gearing produces a forward rotation
(first gear ratio) of the output shaft.

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


e. Operation (HT 750DR)
(Foldout 18,A)
1. Refer to Paragraph 214c(1).
2. When hydraulic pressure is directed to the
back side of the piston (shown in phantom),
clutch plates 1 (Foldout 18,A) and 2 are compressed together. This locks the rotating internal-splined plates to the stationary externaltanged plates, preventing ring gear 4 from
rotating.
3. With the application of the forward or fourth
clutch in conjunction with the first clutch (refer
to Paragraph 214a(3)), a reaction within the
planetary gearing produces either forward or
reverse rotation of the output shaft.

215. LOW CLUTCH


(Foldout 18,B; Foldout 19,A)
a. Function Differs Among Models
1. Only the five-speed transmissions include the
low clutch. Refer to Figure 21 for the location
of the low clutch.
2. The low clutch, in the HT 750CR and
HT 754CR, has a dual function. When engaged
simultaneously with the forward clutch, first
range is produced. When engaged with the
fourth clutch, reverse range is produced.
3. In the HT 750DR model, the low clutch has a
single function. When engaged with the forward clutch, first range is produced.
b. Description. The low clutch in the HT 750CR,
HT 754CR, and HT 750DR contains thirteen clutch
plates and a piston. The seven external-tanged plates
are held stationary by the adapter housing, while the
six internal-splined plates are free to rotate. The lowclutch piston is positioned in its bore and retained by
twenty-eight piston return springs, the return spring
retainer, four retainer rings, and a snapring.
c. Operation (HT 750CR, HT 754CR)
(Foldout 18,B)
1. When the low clutch is not engaged, internalsplined plates 15 are free to rotate. Low planetary ring gear 14 rotates freely because it is
splined to the internal-splined plates.
28

2. When hydraulic pressure is directed to the


back side of piston 6 (Foldout 18,B), clutch
plates 15 and 16 are compressed together. This
locks the rotating internal-splined plate to the
stationary external-tanged plate, preventing
ring gear 14 from rotating. The planetary reaction produces low gear ratio.
3. With the application of the forward or fourth
clutch in conjunction with the low clutch, a
reaction within the planetary gearing produces
either forward or reverse rotation of the output
shaft.
d. Operation (HT 750DR)
(Foldout 19,A)
1. When the low clutch is not engaged, internalsplined plates 14 are free to rotate. These plates
rotate freely because they are splined to the OD
of low carrier assembly 29.
2. When hydraulic pressure is directed to the
back side of piston 6 (Foldout 19,A), clutch
plates 14 and 15 are compressed together. This
locks the rotating internal-splined plate to the
stationary external-tanged plates, preventing
low carrier assembly 29 from rotating.
3. With the application of the forward clutch in
conjunction with the low clutch, a reaction
within the planetary gearing produces a forward rotation of the output shaft.

216. PLANETARY GEARING


(HT 740, HT 747)
a. Description (Foldout 15,A)
1. The gear unit and main shaft assembly contains three planetary gear sets. Because their
functions overlap, these are identified as front,
center, and rear planetary carrier assemblies.
Their identification is due to their location in
relation to the transmission and to each other.
2. Each of the three gear sets contains a sun gear
and a ring gear, which are interconnected by the
main transmission shaft and a connecting drum.
This interconnection of the planetary input,
reaction, and output elements, and connections
with the forward and fourth clutches, produce
four forward speeds and one reverse speed.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


b. Operation (Foldout 15,A)
1. Front planetary assembly 5, used in conjunction with center planetary assembly 16, produces second range when the forward and second clutches are applied. Refer to Figure 24.
2. The center planetary is active in second, third,
fourth, and reverse ranges, but only in second
and reverse ranges are the compounding of two
planetaries required.
3. Rear planetary carrier assembly 39 (Foldout
15,A) is active in first and reverse ranges. In
first range the rear planetary acts alone to
transmit torque to the transmission output shaft
via main shaft 36, sun gear 37, and four pinions in carrier assembly 39. Reverse range is
activated by compounding the center and rear
planetary carriers. Refer to Figure 27.
NOTE:
In fourth range, all three planetaries rotate as a unit
because both the forward and fourth clutches are
engaged. This provides direct drive (1:1 ratio)
through the transmission.

217. PLANETARY GEARING


(HT 750CR, HT 754CR)
a. Description (Foldout 15,B)
1. The planetary gearing is composed of gear unit
and main shaft assembly 1 (Foldout 15,B), low
planetary carrier assembly 18 (Foldout 18,B),
and its sun gear and ring gear.
2. The gear unit and main shaft assembly contains three planetary gear sets. Because their
functions overlap, these are identified as front,
center, and rear planetary carrier assemblies.
Their identification is due to their location in
relation to the transmission and to each other.
3. Each of the three planetary gear sets contains a
sun gear and a ring gear, which are interconnected by the main transmission shaft and a
connecting drum.
4. The low planetary gear set is located behind
the gear unit and main shaft assembly. Refer to

Figure 29. It contains a sun gear, a carrier


assembly, and a ring gear. The sun gear is
splined to the main shaft, and the rear carrier is
splined to the low ring gear, thereby interconnecting the four planetary systems.
5. This interconnection of the planetary input,
reaction, and output elements, and connections
with the forward and fourth clutches, produces
five forward speeds and one reverse speed.
b. Operation (Foldout 15,B)
1. Front planetary assembly 5, used in conjunction with center planetary assembly 16, produces third range when the forward and second
clutches are applied. Refer to Figure 211.
2. The center planetary is active in third, fourth,
fifth, and reverse ranges.
3. Rear planetary carrier assembly 38 is active in
second, third, fourth, and fifth ranges. In second range, with the application of forward and
first clutches, torque is transmitted at a reduction through the low carrier to the output shaft.
Refer to Figure 210. In third, fourth, and fifth
ranges, its only function is to transmit torque
through the low carrier to the output shaft.
4. Low planetary carrier assembly 18 (Foldout
18,B) is active in all ranges. With the application of the forward clutch with any one of the
other clutches (low, first, second, third, or
fourth), torque is transmitted, via the main
shaft and planetary carrier components,
through the low carrier to the output shaft. In
reverse range, torque is transmitted through the
fourth-clutch housing, sun gear shaft assembly
23 (Foldout 15,B), center carrier assembly 16,
and main shaft assembly 34 to the low sun gear
and carrier.
NOTE:
In fifth range, all four planetaries rotate as a unit
because both the forward and fourth clutches are
engaged. This provides direct drive (1:1 ratio)
through the transmission.

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


218. PLANETARY GEARING
(HT 750DR)
a. Description (Foldout 16,A)
1. The planetary gearing in the HT 750CR,
HT 754CR, and HT 750DR is similar. The
description in Paragraph 217a, Steps (1), (2),
and (3), is applicable by changing Foldout
15,B to Foldout 16,A and item 18 (Foldout
18,B) to item 29 (Foldout 19,A). These steps
describe the gear unit and shaft assembly and
its three planetary gear sets.
2. The low planetary gear set is located behind
the gear unit and main shaft assembly. Refer to
Figure 215. It contains a carrier assembly, a
sun gear, and a ring gear. The sun gear is driven
by the rear planetary ring gear. The low ring
gear is splined to the output shaft and driven by
the low planetary pinions, which in turn, drives
the carrier and the output shaft.

4. Low planetary carrier assembly 29 (Foldout


19,A) functions only in first range. When the
forward and low clutches are applied, torque is
transmitted through the main shaft to the rear
planetary sun gear. Torque is split at this point
and is sent both through the rear carrier to the
output shaft and through the low sun gear carrier pinions, and ring gear to the output shaft.
This interconnection between the two carriers
causes a compounding action producing a high
output torque.
NOTE:
In fifth range, all four planetaries rotate as a unit
because both the forward and fourth clutches are
engaged. This gives direct drive (1:1 ratio) through
the transmission.

219. SPEEDOMETER DRIVE


(Straight-Through Models)
a. Description (Foldout 20,A)

3. The three planetary gear sets (front, center, and


rear) work independently of the low planetary
system in all but first range. These three planetaries systems are required to produce second,
third, fourth, fifth, and reverse ranges, transmitting torque directly to the output shaft. The
low planetary gear set is required to produce
first range only.
b. Operation (Foldout 16,A)

2. Drive gear 24 is a right-hand helix worm gear.


Speed sensor gear 45 is a sixteen-tooth tone
gear. The gears are concentric with the output
shaft and do not have keys or drive splines. The
gears are clamped between rotating parts
which causes the gears to rotate.

1. Compounding front and center planetary


assemblies 5 and 16, used in conjunction with
the forward and second clutches, produces
third range when the forward and second
clutches are applied. Refer to Figure 218.

b. Operation (Foldout 20,A). Drive gear 24 rotates


when the transmission output shaft rotates. Bushing 15
supports the driven gear (OEM furnished) within the
rear cover. The driven gear rotates clockwise (as
viewed at the cable connection in the rear cover) during forward operation.

2. The center planetary is active in third, fourth,


fifth, and reverse ranges.

220. GOVERNOR

3. Rear planetary carrier assembly 39 (Foldout


16,A) is active in all ranges. In first range it
works in combination with the low planetary to
produce a high output torque. In second range
it acts alone to transmit torque at a reduction to
the output shaft. In third, fourth, and fifth
ranges, its only function is to transfer torque to
the output shaft. In reverse range, it transmits
torque at a reduction to the output shaft.
210

1. The speedometer drive consists of drive gear


24 and driven gear bushing 15, or speed sensor
gear 45 and a magnetic pickup.

a. Description (Foldout 20,A). Governor assembly


38 is a centrifugal (flyweight) governor which is driven
by a gear that is integral with output shaft 23 or 30. The
governor is supported by a bore in rear cover 14 and
pin 11, and retained in the rear cover by cover 42.
b. Operation (Foldout 20,A). Rotation of the governor causes the governor valve (Foldouts 5, 6, 7, and 8)
to travel within its bore. Governor pressure rises when
the valve moves to the left. Governor pressure falls

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


when the valve moves to the right. Therefore, governor
pressure is proportional to transmission output speed.
Governor pressure, in combination with modulator
pressure (Paragraph 231h), provides the automatic
shifting in the transmission. (Refer also to Paragraphs
231g, i, j, k, and l for additional information about
automatic shift circuits.)

221. CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY


NOTE:
Refer to Paragraph 223b, Lockup Cutoff Valves,
for a description of the Consistent Hydraulic Controls System (CHC).
a. Description (Foldout 20,B). Control valve body
assembly 1 includes the various valves, springs, and
other components that control the selection of ranges
and the automatic shifting of gears. The valve body
assembly is bolted to the bottom of the transmission
housing which is channeled to direct the flow of fluid
between the valve body and clutches, and other components.
b. Operation. Refer to Paragraph 231 for operation of the control valve body assembly.

222. LOW SHIFT AND LOW


TRIMMER VALVES
a. Description (Foldout 21,A). Low shift valve
body assembly 23 contains a relay valve, a shift
valve, springs, pins, and an adjusting ring. It is
mounted at the back of the HT 740 control valve
assembly and is retained by bolt 1. Mounted directly
under the low shift valve body is low-trimmer valve
body assembly 13. This valve body consists of a
valve, trimmer and retainer plugs, a spring, a valve
stop, and a pin. Six bolts 22, extending through both
valve bodies and the control valve assembly into the
transmission housing, retain the two valve bodies.
b. Operation (Foldouts 6, 7, 8). With the selector
valve placed in the D1 (Drive) position, hydraulic fluid
is directed to the 12 shift signal valve (Foldout 6) or
through the 12 shift signal valve to the top of the 12
relay valve (Foldout 7). Hydraulic fluid (Foldout 6)
holds the 12 shift valve down until governor pressure
charges the line (refer to Paragraph 231o(3)). Hydraulic fluid (Foldout 7) presses the relay valve down

against its spring, allowing main pressure to apply low


clutch (refer Paragraph 231p(6)).

223. LOCKUP CUTOFF VALVES


a. Description (Foldout 21,A)
1. Lockup valve body assembly 2 contains three
identical valves 4, 8, and 11. The assembly is
bolted to the lower front of the oil transfer
plate in the transmission oil pan.
2. The valves move in their bores in response to
various clutch-apply pressures at the moment
the clutches are applied. Some transmission
assemblies do not include lockup cutoff valves.
b. Description, Consistent Hydraulic Controls
(CHC) (Foldout 21,A)
1. CHC is designed for applications that have low
gross weight, high horsepower vocations.
2. CHC incorporates large clutch feed and
exhaust orifice design to reduce transmission
fluid temperature effects on shift quality,
resulting in a more consistent shift calibration.
3. The CHC system incorporates a lockup interrupt feature (cutoff valves) which allows for
reduced modulation to shifts (reducing the
operators effect of producing step-through and
back-off shifts with the throttle). Also, nonmodulated 12 shift calibration eliminates 21
and 12 step-through and back-off shifts common in city traffic.
c. Operation (HT 740, HT 747) (Foldout 5)
1. When the first, second, third, or fourth clutch is
applied, pressure is sent to the lockup cutoff
valves. In first range, a valve is pushed upward
and pressure then charges the lockup feed line.
Lockup occurs in first range when the front governor pressure is sufficiently high. (Lockup does
not occur in first range on models equipped with
the rear governor/lockup option).
2. When the transmission shifts to second range,
first-clutch pressure is exhausted and the
lockup clutch, if engaged, releases. Also,
second-clutch pressure is exerted upon the
opposite end of the same valve from which
first-clutch pressure was released. However,
second-clutch pressure must initially flow
through an orifice to move the valve

211

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


downward. This delays the movement of the
valve to a point where second-clutch pressure
can again apply the lockup clutch.

bore, blocking main pressure flow to the 12 relay


valve and maintaining first range operation until the
selector lever is moved or D1 hold speed is exceeded.

3. Similar actions occur at the other two valves


when second-clutch pressure is released and
third-clutch pressure is applied, and when
third-clutch pressure is released and fourthclutch pressure is applied.

d. Reverse-Range Operation (Earlier Models).


Shift the selector lever into R (Reverse). Reverse pressure from the selector valve is directed to the reverse
signal valve pin and to the 12 shift valve, pushing
them downward. Reverse pressure is also directed to
the top of the 12 relay valve, blocking main pressure.
This allows reverse pressure to pass through the bottom of 12 relay valve engaging fourth and first
clutches. Reverse pressure in the first trimmer trim
boost area blocks the trimmer and prevents any trimming action.

4. The delay in valve movement provides a


momentary release of the lockup clutch
between upshifts. In downshifts, similar
actions occur, but in a reversed sequence.
d. Operation (HT 750DR) (Foldouts 7, 8)
1. Operation of the lockup cutoff valves in the
HT 750 model is similar to that described for
the HT 740. In some models, the first through
fourth-clutch pressures provide lockup feed for
second through fifth ranges. There is no lockup
in first range (Foldout 7).
2. In HT 750DR models (Foldout 8), low-clutch
pressure is sent to the same valve that receives
second-clutch pressure through a shuttle ball
check valve. Therefore, lockup is effective in
all ranges.

224. SECOND-RANGE START (HT 740,


HT 747, HT 750CR, HT 754CR)
a. Description. The second-range start feature is
optional for vehicles equipped with a 3.19:1 or 3.69:1
first range ratio transmission. This provides for automatic bypassing of first range and accelerating the
vehicle in second range from a standing start.
b. Forward-Range Operation (Vehicle Stationary).
Shift the selector lever into D4 (Drive 4) position. Forward-regulated pressure moves the 12 modulator
valve upward in its bore, compressing the valve spring
(later models). The tickler spring at the bottom of the
12 shift valve, forces it upward permitting main pressure to pass through the valve, pressing the springloaded 12 relay valve to the bottom of its bore. Priority main pressure is then directed to flow through the
relay valve to the second clutch.
c. First-Range Operation. Shift the selector lever
into D1 (Drive) position. Hold pressure (D1) is
directed from the selector valve to an area between the
12 shift valve and the 12 modulator valve. This
pressure moves the 12 shift valve to the bottom of its
212

e. Reverse-Range Operation (Later Models).


Shift the selector lever into R (Reverse) position. With
forward regulated pressure absent, the 12 shift spring
at the top of the 12 shift valve forces the 12 modulator and 12 shift valves to the bottom of their bores.
This blocks main pressure flow to the top of the 12
relay valve, leaving the valve at the top of its bore and
permitting reverse pressure from the selector valve to
pass through the bottom of the 12 relay valve to the
fourth and first clutches. Reverse pressure is also
directed through the trim regulator valve to the trim
boost area of the first, second, and third trimmers,
blocking all trimming action.

225. OIL PAN AND OIL FILTER


a. Description
1. There are four different oil pans designed for
this transmission series: 6 inch deep, pressed
steel pan 41 (Foldout 16,B); 7 inch deep,
pressed steel pan 41 (Foldout 17,A); 812 inch
deep, cast-iron pan 29 (Foldout 17,B); and a
low profile, 412 inch deep, cast aluminum pan
67 (Foldout 17,B).
2. The pan holds the fluid that activates the
clutches, valves, etc., and is sometimes
referred to as the sump. The 412 inch deep oil
pan adapter is retained to the bottom of the
transmission housing with twenty bolt and
washer assemblies. The 412 inch deep oil pan
is retained to the bottom of the 412 inch deep
oil pan adapter with forty-one bolt and washer
assemblies. The 6 inch, 7 inch, and 812 inch
deep oil pans are retained to the bottom of the
transmission housing with twenty-three bolt
and washer assemblies.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


3. Earlier oil pans have one port on either the left
or right side for attaching an oil fill tube. Current oil pans have two ports, one on the left
side and one on the right, for attaching an oil
fill tube. One of these ports will have an oil fill
tube, the other will be plugged. All oil pans
have a port at the rear for draining the fluid.
4. Oil pans with three ports accommodate a fluid
preheating element or the shift-assist feed line
required on split-shaft PTO transmissions.
5. Oil screens 33 (Foldout 16,B), 33 (Foldout
17,A), and 22, 59, and 88 (Foldout 17,B) have
a box-like frame with a perforated sheet metal
reinforcement covered by a fine mesh screen
across the bottom. Sump oil is drawn through
the screen by the oil pump and directed into the
hydraulic system. The screens are retained to
the bottom of the control valve body assembly
with bolts.

CAUTION:
The dropbox has its own hydraulic system and
requires its own grade of fluid.
b. Function (Foldout 16,B)
1. The oil pan holds the fluid supply for the transmission and covers the control valve body
assemblies and the oil filter. It does not hold
the fluid supply for the dropbox.
2. The oil filter screens all fluid entering the
hydraulic system.

226. REAR ADAPTER HOUSING


a. Adapter housing 10 (Foldout 19,A) is machined
to receive first-clutch piston 6. Cast slots inside the
housing receive the tangs of the external-tanged
clutch plates of the low clutch.
b. The rear adapter housing is mounted between
main housing 8 (Foldout 16,B) and rear cover 14
(Foldout 20,A) in the straight-through models.
c. In transfer gear housing models, the rear adapter
housing is covered by transfer housing adapter assembly 9 (Foldout 19,B) and transfer gear housing 6
(Foldout 22,A).

227. REAR COVER (Foldout 20,A)


Rear cover 14 is made of cast iron and machined to
receive governor assembly 38 and first- or low-clutch
piston 4. The rear cover provides support for output
shaft assemblies 19 or 26. A parking brake mounting
face is also provided on the rear surface. The cover is
the rear closure member and is attached to either the
transmission housing (HT 740, HT 747) or the adapter
housing (HT 750) by twenty-four bolts 17 and 36.

228. TRANSFER GEAR HOUSING


ADAPTER
Transfer gear housing adapter 10 (Foldout 19,B) is cast
iron and machined to receive governor assembly 27
and low-clutch piston 5. An oil seal is installed in the
rear of the housing to keep the fluid in the front section
from mixing with the fluid used in the dropbox.

229. TRANSFER GEAR HOUSING


(DROPBOX) (Foldout 22,B)
The dropbox housing contains a drive gear at the top,
an idler gear in the center, and an output driven gear at
the bottom. Rotation of the drive gear and the output
driven gear are in the same direction. The input-output
ratio is 1.00:1.

230. MANUAL DISCONNECT CLUTCH


(Foldout 23,A)
A manual disconnect clutch can be mounted at the top
rear of the dropbox, at the bottom rear, bottom front,
or any combination of these output positions.

231. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM


NOTE:
Unless otherwise specified, all of the hydraulic functions explained in Paragraph 231 and shown on
Foldouts 5, 6, 7, and 8 are common to the HT 740,
HT 747, HT 754CR, and HT 750DR.
a. System Functions. The hydraulic system generates, directs, and controls the pressure and flow of the
hydraulic fluid within the transmission. The hydraulic fluid (transmission fluid) is the power transmitting
medium in the torque converter. Its velocity drives
the torque converter turbine, its flow cools and lubricates the transmission, and its pressure applies the
clutches.

b. System Schematics. Color-coded foldout illustrations of the hydraulic system are shown at the end
of this manual (Foldouts 5, 6, 7, and 8). Each illustration represents the system as it functions during neutral operation and with the engine idling.
c. Oil Filter, Pump Circuit (Foldouts 5, 6, 7, 8)
1. Fluid (blue) is drawn from the sump (transmission oil pan) through a fine-mesh filter screen
by the input-driven pump assembly.
2. The fluid (red) is discharged by the input pump
through an external filter and into the bore of
the main-pressure regulator valve.
3. For models equipped with a hydraulic input
retarder, the fluid is discharged from two sections of the input pump. The first section directs
fluid (red) to the main-pressure regulator valve.
The second section directs fluid (black and
green) to the lubrication circuit, and assists in
providing fluid to the converter-in circuit.
d. Main Pressure Circuit (Foldouts 5, 6, 7, 8)
1. Main pressure (red) is regulated by the mainpressure regulator valve. Fluid from the pump
flows into the valve bore, through an internal
passage in the valve, to the upper end of the
valve. Pressure at the upper end of the valve
presses the valve downward against the spring
until fluid (yellow) flows into the converter-in
circuit. When flow from the pump exceeds the
circuit requirement, the converter bypass valve
opens and allows the excess to escape into the
converter-out circuit (orange).
2. Although main pressure is controlled primarily
by the spring force below the regulator valve, it
is also affected by the presence of forward regulator pressure. When this pressure is not
present at the regulator valve, main pressure is
regulated at a higher value.
3. Main pressure (red) is directed to several
points in the hydraulic circuit. These points
vary among models, and depend upon the features such as lockup cutoff and hydraulic input
retarder.
e. Converter, Cooler, Lubrication Circuit
(Foldouts 5, 6, 7, 8)
1. The converter circuit originates at the mainpressure regulator valve. Converter-in fluid
214

(yellow) flows to the torque converter. Fluid


must flow through the converter continuously
to keep it filled and to carry off the heat generated within the converter.
2. Converter-out fluid (orange), leaving the
torque converter, is directed to an external
cooler (supplied by vehicle or engine manufacturer). When the transmission includes a
hydraulic input retarder, converter-out fluid
flows through the retarder control valve before
going to the cooler. A flow of air or water over,
or through, the cooler removes the heat from
the transmission fluid.
3. On models without a hydraulic input retarder,
lubrication fluid (green) is directed through the
transmission to components requiring continuous lubrication and cooling. The lubrication
fluid then drains into the sump. Fluid in excess
of that required by the lubrication circuit
escapes to the sump through the lubrication
regulator valve.
4. Lubrication fluid on the input retarder-equipped
models originates in the second section of the
input driven pump (Paragraph 231c). The fluid
(black and green) leaving the pump is directed
to the 0.250 inch (6.35 mm) orifice and the
lubrication regulator valve. The fluid (green)
passing through the 0.250 inch (6.35 mm) orifice is directed to transmission components
requiring continuous lubrication and cooling.
Fluid in excess of that required by the lubrication circuit escapes through the lubrication
regulator valve into the converter-in circuit.
Excess supply to the converter-in circuit
escapes to the sump through the converter
bypass valve and secondary converter pressure
regulator valve.
f. Selector Valve, Forward Regulator Circuits
(Foldouts 5, 6, 7, 8)
1. The selector valve is manually shifted to select
the operating range desired. The HT 740 and
HT 747 models can be shifted into six lever
positions: R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D4 (Drive
4), D3 (Drive 3), D2 (Drive 2), and D1 (Drive).
2. The HT 750 model can be shifted into seven
lever positions: R (Reverse), N (Neutral),
D5 (Drive 5), D4 (Drive 4), D3 (Drive 3),
D2 (Drive 2), and D1 (Drive). At each of these

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


positions, the selector valve establishes the
hydraulic circuit for operation in the condition
indicated.
NOTE:
The quadrant designations listed are not necessarily
the same as those in the vehicle.
3. On HT 740 and HT 747 models (Foldout 5),
D1 (Drive), D2 (Drive 2), D3 (Drive 3), and D4
(Drive 4) are forward ranges. Anytime the
vehicle moves forward, regardless of the range
selected, the transmission starts in first range
(except for second-range start units). Shifting
is automatic in any of the above ranges, varying with vehicle speed and throttle position.
4. On second-range start units, anytime the vehicle moves forward, regardless of the range
selected, the transmission starts in second
range and shifting is automatic through third
and fourth ranges (HT 740 and 747), or third,
fourth, and fifth ranges (HT 750). First range
must be manually selected, and does not automatically shift to the next higher range unless
maximum governor pressure is exceeded.
5. On HT 750CR and HT 754CR models (Foldout 6), D1 (Drive), D2 (Drive 2), D3 (Drive 3),
D4 (Drive 4), and D5 (Drive 5) are forward
ranges. Anytime the vehicle moves forward,
regardless of the range selected, the transmission starts in first range, (except second-range
start units). Shifting is automatic in any of the
above ranges, varying with vehicle speed and
throttle position.
6. On HT 750DR (Foldouts 7 and 8), D1 (Drive),
D2 (Drive 2), D3 (Drive 3), D4 (Drive 4), and
D5 (Drive 5) are forward ranges. D1 (Drive) is
the only range of the five forward ranges that
does not include an automatic shift. The
remaining four ranges (25) provide automatic
shifts according to vehicle speed and throttle
position, and within the ranges selected by the
operator.
7. On the HT 740 and HT 747 models (Foldout 5)
and the HT 750CR and HT 754CR models
(Foldout 6), forward regulator pressure is
directed from the selector valve to the main-

pressure regulator valve when the selector


valve is in any position except R (Reverse). On
later HT 740 and HT 747 second-range start
units, forward regulator pressure is also
directed to the top of the 12 modulator valve.
In N (Neutral) and all forward drive ranges,
this regulator pressure assists the pump pressure acting downward upon the main-pressure
regulator valve. In R (Reverse), the forward
regulator pressure is absent from the mainpressure regulator valve. This allows the valve
spring to exert its full force upward against the
regulator valve, causing an increase in main
pressure. This increase in pressure is necessary
for higher clutch pressures to handle the high
torque produced in R (Reverse) range.
8. On HT 750DR (Foldouts 7 and 8), first range
develops a high torque ratio. Since high torque
requires greater main pressure (approximately
250 psi (1723 kPa), to apply and retain the low
clutch, forward regulator pressure is omitted in
this range. Moving the selector valve to engage
third range initiates a hydraulic flow of fluid
from the 23 relay valve to the main regulator
valve. This fluid forces the regulator valve
downward, bringing main pressure to its normal state (approximately 150 psi (1034 kPa))
for the remaining automatic shifting operations.
g. Rear Governor Circuit
1. Governor feed is main pressure directed to the
governor valve. A centrifugal-type governor,
driven by the transmission output, controls the
position of the governor valve. The position of
the governor valve determines the pressure in
the governor circuit. When the transmission
output is not rotating, governor pressure is
approximately 2 psi (13 kPa). When the transmission output rotates, governor pressure
increases and varies with the speed of rotation.
2. Governor pressure is directed to the shift signal
valves in all models, and to the governor accumulator valve on later models. Also, some
models utilize rear governor pressure to control
lockup.
3. The governor accumulator valve is a springloaded valve in a straight bore. The accumulator valve absorbs pressure surges and provides
a more uniform governor pressure.

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


h. Modulator Pressure Circuit
(Foldouts 5, 6, 7, 8)
1. The modulator valve produces a regulated,
reduced pressure which is derived from main
pressure. The valve is moved to the right by a
spring at the left end of the valve when the
throttle is closed. The valve is moved to the left
by the cam and spring action when the throttle
is opened. When the spring force at the left of
the valve is in balance with the spring force
and modulator pressure at the right end of the
valve, modulator pressure is regulated.
2. When the throttle setting is increased, the
movement of the actuator cam forces the modulator valve toward the left. This movement to
the left reduces modulator pressure. When the
throttle setting is reduced, the downward
movement of the actuator cam allows the
spring at the left end of the valve to return the
valve to another regulating position. This
causes the modulation pressure to vary with
the throttle opening.
3. At all the shift signal valves, modulator and
governor pressures act on calibrated areas to
upshift the valves against calibrated springs.
Each of the shift valves and springs is calibrated to ensure that the valves shift at the
proper time and in proper sequence. At a given
governor pressure, an increase in modulator
pressure upshifts a shift signal valve. A
decrease in modulator pressure causes a downshift if governor pressure alone does not hold
the valve upward.
4. At the trimmer regulator valve, modulator
pressure assists in regulating the trimmer regulator pressure against the spring at the top of
the valve.
5. At the lockup valve, modulator pressure causes
lockup to occur at a lower vehicle speed.
i. Trimmer Regulator Valve
1. The trimmer regulator valve reduces main
pressure to a regulated pressure. The regulated
pressure is raised or lowered by changes in
modulator pressure (red and green).
2. Trimmer regulator pressure is directed to the
lower side(s) of the trimmer regulator plug(s)
to vary the clutch-apply pressure pattern of the
216

trimmer valves. A higher modulator pressure


(closed throttle) reduces trimmer regulator
pressure. This results in lower initial clutch
pressure. Conversely, a lower modulator pressure (open throttle) results in higher regulator
pressure and a higher initial clutch pressure.
j. Trimmer Valves
1. The purpose of the trimmer valves is to minimize shift shock. The valves reduce pressure in
the clutch-apply circuit during initial clutch
application, then gradually return the pressure
to the operating maximum. This applies the
clutch gently to prevent harsh shifts.
2. Although each trimmer valve is calibrated for
the clutch it serves, all trimmers function in the
same manner. Each trimmer includes (from top
to bottom) an orificed trimmer valve, trimmer
valve plug, trimmer spring, and stop pin.
3. When any clutch (except forward) is applied,
apply pressure is also sent to the upper end of
the trimmer valve. Initially, the valve and plug
are pressed downward against the trimmer
spring until fluid escapes to exhaust. Fluid
flows through an orifice in the trimmer valve to
the cavity between the trimmer valve and plug.
Pressure in this cavity forces the plug farther
downward, to the stop. When pressure is equal
on both sides, pressure below the trimmer
valve (because it is acting upon a greater diameter than at the upper end) pushes the trimmer
valve to the top of the valve bore. This throttles, then stops, the escape of fluid to exhaust.
When escape of fluid is stopped, clutch-apply
pressure is at maximum value. The plug
remains downward, against the stop, until the
clutch is released.
4. When the clutch is released, the trimmer spring
pushes the trimmer components to the top of
the bore. In this position, the trimmer is reset
and ready to repeat the trimming action when
the clutch is again engaged.
5. In later models, a trim boost accumulator valve
is connected to the trimmer regulator pressure
circuit. The accumulator absorbs surges in the
trimmer regulator pressure and provides a
more uniform regulator pressure.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


k. Lockup Circuit (Actuated by Front Governor)
(HT 740, HT 747, HT 750)
1. The front governor circuit originates at the
front governor (pitot). Rotation of the vaned oil
collector ring directs fluid against, and into, the
pitot orifice. This produces a pressure in the
front governor circuit which varies with the
rotational speed of the collector ring. Pressure
increases as speed increases. This pressure is
directed to the top of the lockup valve.
2. When front governor pressure (or front governor pressure assisted by modulator pressure) is
sufficient to compress the spring at the bottom
of the valve, the lockup valve moves downward. In this position, the valve directs pressure to the lockup-clutch piston, which causes
the lockup clutch to engage. Main pressure
applies the lockup clutch in models not
equipped with lockup cutoff valves. When
lockup cutoff valves (Paragraph 223) are
included, clutch-apply pressure from the drive
clutch engaged is used to apply the lockup
clutch. Earlier HT 750DR models do not have
first range lockup.
l. Lockup Circuit (Actuated by Rear Governor)
(HT 740, HT 747)
1. Rear governor pressure varies with vehicle or
transmission output speed. The pressure created by the rotational movement of the governor is fed to the top of the lockup valve. During
normal operation in first range, this pressure
never increases sufficiently to overcome the
lockup valve spring. Therefore, lockup in first
range does not occur.
2. With an increase in output speed, the governor
transmits a higher pressure to the lockup valve.
3. When the pressure is sufficient, the lockup
valve moves downward, compressing its
spring. This opens a path for pressure to flow
to the lockup-clutch piston. Lockup is now
engaged. Main pressure applies the lockup
clutch in models not equipped with lockup cutoff valves. When lockup cutoff valves (Paragraph 223) are included, clutch-apply
pressure from the drive clutch engaged is used
to apply the lockup clutch.

m. Priority Valve
1. The priority valve ensures that the control system upstream from the valve retains sufficient
pressure during shifts to perform its automatic
functions.
2. Without the priority valve, the filling of a
clutch requires a greater volume of fluid
(momentarily) than the pump can supply and
still maintain the necessary control pressures.
n. Clutch Circuits, Drive Ranges
(HT 740, HT 747) (Foldout 5)
1. There are five clutches in the transmission.
These are: first clutch, second clutch, third
clutch, fourth clutch, and forward clutch. The
clutches are applied for various conditions, as
follows:
Condition

Clutch(es) Applied

Neutral
First range
Second range
Third range
Fourth range
Reverse range

First
First and forward
Second and forward
Third and forward
Fourth and forward
First and fourth

2. Each of the five clutches has its own circuit.


Each clutch, except the forward clutch, is connected to a relay valve and a trimmer valve.
The forward clutch is connected directly to the
selector valve but does not require connection
to a trimmer valve because the vehicle is not
moving.
3. The first-clutch circuit connects the clutch to
the 12 relay valve and to the first-clutch trimmer valve. In neutral, the 12 relay valve is
held upward by spring force and main pressure
(red) is directed to the first clutch circuit. The
12 relay valve cannot move downward unless
the 12 shift signal line is charged. This does
not occur in neutral (vehicle standing) because
there is no governor pressure to move the 12
shift signal valve. Only the first clutch is
applied, so the transmission output cannot
rotate until two clutches are applied. (Refer to
Figure 22).

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


4. The first clutch, in addition to being applied
during neutral operation, is applied also in first
and reverse ranges. Shifting the selector valve
from N (Neutral) to D4 (Drive 4) or to any
other forward drive range (D3, D2, or D1)
charges the forward-clutch circuit and applies
the forward clutch. The first clutch remains
charged. Application of the forward clutch also
directs main pressure through the priority valve
to the 12 relay valve. Shifting the selector
valve from N (Neutral) to R (Reverse) charges
the fourth-clutch circuit, while the first clutch
remains applied. In reverse, fourth clutch
(reverse signal) pressure is also directed to the
bottom of the 12 relay valve. The pressure at
this point prevents the relay valve from moving
downward during reverse operation. On later
models, a bypass and check ball are provided
between the reverse and first trimmer passages
to ensure rapid charging of the first clutch
when a shift is made from a Drive range to
R (Reverse).
5. When the circuits are charged, as described for
the shift to D4 (Drive 4), any forward shift
from first to second, second to third, and third
to fourth can occur automatically. These shifts
occur as a result of rear governor pressure. At
less than full throttle, modulator pressure
assists governor pressure.
NOTE:
Models equipped with a second-range start feature,
always start in second range and progress to the
highest range. Refer to Paragraph 224.
6. Position of the selector valve determines the
highest range which is normally reached automatically. In D4 (Drive 4), automatic 12, 23,
and 34 shifts can occur. In D3 (Drive 3), automatic 12 and 23 shifts can occur. In
D2 (Drive 2), an automatic 12 shift can occur.
In D1 (Drive), no upshift can occur unless
over-speed occurs. Automatic downshifts can
occur within the selected ranges.
7. The various drive ranges limit the highest
range attainable by introducing a pressure
which prevents rear governor pressure from
upshifting the signal valves (unless a governor
pressure above that normally attained is
218

reached). This pressure is a regulated, reduced


pressure derived from main pressure at the
hold regulator valve. Main pressure is directed
to the hold regulator valve through the hold
feed line when the selector valve is at D3, D2,
or D1 position. The pressure produced in the
hold regulator valve is directed to the 34 shift
signal valve when the selector valve is at Drive
3 position. The hold pressure is directed to the
23 and 34 shift signal valves when the selector valve is at Drive 2 position. The pressure is
directed to all three shift signal valves (12, 2
3, and 34) when the selector valve is at D1
position.
8. Hold regulator pressure at each shift signal
valve pushes the upper valve upward, and
raises the pressure at which the lower valve can
be pushed upward by rear governor pressure.
Therefore, when hold regulator pressure is
present, an upshift can occur at that shift signal
valve, but only at an elevated speed.
o. Clutch Circuit, Drive Ranges
(HT 750CR, HT 754CR) (Foldout 6)
1. There are six clutches in the transmission.
These are: low clutch, first clutch, second
clutch, third clutch, fourth clutch, and forward
clutch. The clutches are applied for various
conditions as follows:
Condition

Clutch(es) Applied

Neutral*
First range
Second range
Third range
Fourth range
Fifth range
Reverse range

Low (or First*)


Low and forward
First and forward
Second and forward
Third and forward
Fourth and forward
Low and fourth

* For second-range start models, first clutch is applied


instead of low clutch.

2. Each of the six clutches has its own circuit. Each


clutch, except the forward clutch, is connected to
a relay valve and a trimmer valve. The forward
clutch is connected directly to the selector valve
but does not require connection to a trimmer
valve because the vehicle is not moving.
3. The low-clutch circuit connects the clutch to
the 12 relay valve and to the low trimmer
valve. In neutral, the 12 shift signal valve

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


feeds main pressure to the top of the 12 relay
valve. As long as main pressure is at the top of
the 12 relay valve, the valve cannot move.
Until the 12 shift signal valve circuit is
charged by governor pressure, main pressure
continues to hold the 12 relay valve down.
Therefore, hydraulic fluid is directed to only
one clutch. Because two clutches are required
to move the vehicle and because governor pressure is negligible until the vehicle is moving,
neutral is maintained. (Refer to Figure 28.)
4. The low clutch, in addition to being applied
during neutral operation, is applied also in first
and reverse ranges. Shifting the selector valve
from N (Neutral) to D5 (Drive 5) or to any
other forward drive range (D4, D3, D2, or D1),
charges the forward-clutch circuit and applies
the forward clutch. The low clutch remains
charged. Hydraulic fluid is directed from the
selector valve to the forward clutch. It is also
directed through the priority valve to the 23
relay valve. The unit is now in first range.
Automatic shifting from first range, progressively, to higher ranges (second, third, fourth,
fifth) occurs when vehicle speed increases. The
highest range attainable, in automatic shifts, is
determined by the range selected. Refer to
Paragraph 231o(7).
5. Shifting the selector valve from N (Neutral) to
R (Reverse) charges the fourth clutch, while
the low clutch remains applied. In reverse,
fourth clutch (reverse signal) pressure is also
directed to the bottom of the 23 relay valve.
The pressure at this point prevents the relay
valve from moving downward during reverse
operation.
6. When the circuits are charged, as described for
D5 (Drive 5) above, any forward shift from
first to second, second to third, third to fourth,
and fourth to fifth can occur automatically.
These shifts occur as a result of rear governor
pressure. At less than full throttle, modulator
pressure assists governor pressure.
NOTE:
Models equipped with a second-range start feature
always start in second range and progress to the
highest range, except when D1 (Drive) is selected.
Refer to Paragraph 224.

7. The position of the selector valve determines


the highest range which is normally reached
automatically. In D5 (Drive 5), automatic 12,
23, 34, and 45 shifts can occur. In
D4 (Drive 4), automatic 12, 23 and 34
shifts can occur. In D3 (Drive 3), automatic 1
2 and 23 shifts can occur. In D1 (Drive), no
upshift can occur unless over-speed occurs.
Automatic downshifts can occur within the
selected ranges.
8. The various drive ranges limit the highest
range attainable by introducing a pressure
which prevents rear governor pressure from
upshifting the signal valves (unless a governor pressure well above that normally
attained is reached). This pressure is a regulated, reduced pressure derived from main
pressure at the hold regulator valve. Main
pressure is directed to the hold regulator valve
through the hold feed line when the selector
valve is at Drive 4, Drive 3, or Drive 2 (D4,
D3, or D2) position. The pressure produced in
the hold regulator valve is directed to the 45
shift signal valve when the selector valve is at
D4 (Drive 4) position. The hold pressure is
directed to the 34 and 45 shift signal valves
when the selector valve is at the D3 (Drive 3)
position. The pressure is directed to all three
shift signal valves (23, 34, and 45) when
the selector valve is at the D2 (Drive 2) position.
9. Hold regulator pressure at each shift signal
valve pushes the upper valve upward, and
raises the pressure at which the lower valve can
be pushed upward by rear governor pressure.
Therefore, when hold regulator pressure is
present, an upshift can occur at that shift signal
valve, but only at a higher speed.
p. Clutch Circuit, Drive Ranges (HT 750DR)
(Foldouts 7, 8)
1. There are six clutches in the transmission.
These are: low clutch, first clutch, second
clutch, third clutch, fourth clutch, and forward

clutch. The clutches are applied for various
conditions, as follows:
Condition

Clutch(es) Applied

Neutral
First range
Second range
Third range
Fourth range
Fifth range
Reverse range

First
Low and forward
First and forward
Second and forward
Third and forward
Fourth and forward
First and fourth

2. Each of the six clutches has its own circuit.


Each clutch, except the forward clutch, is connected to a relay valve and a trimmer valve.
The forward clutch is connected directly to the
selector valve, but does not require connection
to a trimmer valve because the vehicle is not
moving.
3. The first-clutch circuit connects the clutch to
the 12 relay valve. In neutral, the 12 relay
valve is held upward by its spring force, and
main pressure (red) is directed to the clutch circuit. The 23 relay valve is also held upward
by its spring force and cannot move downward
unless the 23 shift signal line is charged. This
does not occur in neutral (vehicle standing)
because there is no governor pressure to shift
the 23 shift signal valve. Only the first clutch
is applied; so the transmission output does not
rotate until two clutches are applied simultaneously. (Refer to Figure 215.)
4. The first clutch, in addition to being applied
during neutral operation, is applied also in second and reverse ranges. Shifting the selector
valve from N (Neutral) to D5 (Drive 5) or to
any other forward drive range (D4, D3, D2, or
D1), charges the forward-clutch circuit and
applies the forward clutch. The first clutch
remains charged (except in D1). In D1, the first
clutch exhausts and the low clutch engages.
Hydraulic fluid is directed from the selector
valve to the forward clutch. It is also directed
through the priority valve to the 23 relay
valve. The unit is now in second range (except
when the selector is at D1 position). D1 gives
first range only. Automatic shifting from second range to progressively higher ranges
220

(third, fourth, fifth) occurs as vehicle speed


increases. Refer to Paragraph 231p(8).
5. Shifting the selector valve from N (Neutral) to
R (Reverse) charges the fourth clutch, while
the first clutch remains applied. In
R (Reverse), fourth clutch (reverse signal)
pressure is also directed to the bottom of the
23 relay valve. The pressure at this point prevents the relay valve from moving downward
during reverse operation.
6. First range can be obtained only by manually
shifting the selector lever into D1 (Drive) position. This range is not automatic. Hydraulic
fluid is directed through the bore of the 12
shift signal valve to the top of the 12 relay
valve. Hydraulic pressure forces the 12 relay
valve (against its spring force) to the bottom of
its bore, thereby directing main pressure to the
low trimmer valve and low clutch. When (D1)
position is selected, main pressure is directed
from the selector valve to the forward clutch.
With the application of two clutches, torque is
transmitted to the output shaft.
7. When the circuits are charged as described for
D5 (Drive 5), any forward shift from second to
third, third to fourth, and fourth to fifth can
occur automatically. These shifts occur as a
result of rear governor pressure. At less than
full throttle, modulator pressure assists governor pressure.
8. Position of the selector valve determines the
highest range which is normally reached automatically. In D5 (Drive 5), automatic 23, 34,
and 45 shifts can occur. In D4 (Drive 4), automatic 23 and 34 shifts can occur. In
D3 (Drive 3), automatic 23 shifts can occur.
In D2 (Drive 2), no upshift can occur (remains
in second range). In D1 (Drive), no upshift can
occur unless over-speed occurs. Automatic
downshifts can occur within any selected range
except D1 (Drive) or D2 (Drive 2).
9. Refer to Paragraph 231o Steps (8) and (9) for
operation of the hold regulator valve.
q. Automatic Upshifts
1. When the transmission is operating in
D4 (Drive 4) (HT 740 and HT 747) or
D5 (Drive 5) (HT 750), a combination of rear
governor pressure and modulator pressure, or

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


rear governor pressure alone, upshifts the
transmission to the next range. At closed or
part throttle, modulator pressure exists and
assists rear governor pressure. At full throttle,
there is no modulator pressure. Therefore,
upshifts occur at lower road speed when the
throttle is closed and at higher road speed
when the throttle is open.
2. Rear governor pressure is dependent upon the
rotational speed of the transmission output.
The greater the output (vehicle) speed, the
greater is rear governor pressure. When rear
governor pressure is sufficient, the first upshift
occurs (12 for HT 740, HT 747, HT 750CR,
HT 754CR; or 23 for HT 750DR). A further
increase in rear governor pressure (and vehicle
speed) causes a 23 (or 34) upshift. A still
further increase in rear governor pressure
causes a 34 (or 45) upshift. Note that each of
these upshifts is either delayed or hastened by
the decrease or increase, respectively, of modulator pressure.
3. In other drive ranges, the same upshift
sequence occurs until the highest range attainable in that range is reached.
4. In any automatic upshift, the shift signal valve
acts first. This directs a shift signal pressure to
the relay valve. The relay valve shifts, exhausting the applied clutch and applying a clutch for
a higher range.
r. Automatic Downshifts
1. Automatic downshifts, like upshifts, are controlled by rear governor and modulator pressures. Downshifts occur in sequence as rear
governor pressure and/or modulator pressures
decrease. Low modulator pressure (open throttle) hastens the downshift; high modulator
pressure (closed throttle) delays downshifts.
2. In any automatic downshift, the shift signal
valve acts first. This exhausts the shift signal
pressure which held the relay valve downward.
The relay valve then moves upward, exhausting the applied clutch and applying the clutch
for the next lower range.

s. Downshift and Reverse Inhibiting


1. Inherent in the system, as a result of valve
areas and pressure calibrations, is a means for
preventing downshifts at a too high vehicle
speed or a reverse shift at an excessive forward
speed.
2. Progressive downshifts occur because the regulated hold pressure is calibrated, along with the
valve areas, to shift the signal valves downward against rear governor pressure only when
the governor pressure decreases to a value corresponding to a safe downshift speed. Therefore, if speed is too great, rear governor
pressure is sufficient to hold the shift signal
valve upward against hold pressure. As rear
governor pressure decreases, the shift signal
valves move downward in sequence.

232. TORQUE PATHS THROUGH


TRANSMISSION (HT 740, HT 747)
a. Converter Operation. Power is transmitted
hydraulically through the torque converter. The
engine drives the converter pump. The pump throws
fluid against the vanes of the turbine, delivering
torque to the converter turbine shaft. From the turbine, fluid flows between the vanes of the stator, and
re-enters the pump where the cycle begins again.
When the engine is idling, impact of the fluid upon
the turbine blades is negligible. When the engine is
accelerated, the impact is increased and the torque
directed through the turbine shaft can exceed the
engine torque (by an amount equal to the torque ratio
of the converter). Converter operation is illustrated in
first, second, (also third HT 750) and reverse
range operation where it is most likely to occur.
b. Lockup Operation. Power is transmitted
mechanically through the lockup clutch. Application
of the lockup clutch occurs automatically as a function
of governor pressure. When the lockup clutch is
applied, the converter elements rotate as a unit at
engine speed. This provides a direct drive from the
engine to the turbine shaft. Lockup operation is illustrated in third (except HT 750), fourth, and fifth range
operation.

parts rotate at input speed. With the carrier of the front
planetary carrier assembly anchored against rotation
(by second clutch application), the rotating center ring

224

gear rotates the center sun gear shaft via the carrier
pinions. This sun gear is integral with the sun gear
shaft assembly to which the front sun gear is also
splined. The rotating front sun gear rotates the front
carrier pinions whose carrier is anchored against rotation by the applied second clutch. In turn, the rotating
front carrier pinions rotate the front ring gear, which,
along with the center carrier, is splined to the rear
planetary through the connecting drum. Rotation of
the connecting drum drives the output shaft through
the splines of the rear planetary carrier, at a speed
reduction of 2.01:1.

sun gear is splined to both the main shaft and the center

ring gear and rotates at input speed. With the center sun
gear stationary and the center ring gear rotating, the
ring gear drives the center planetary carrier pinions.
This rotates the center planetary carrier at a speed
reduction of 1.38:1. This carrier and the rear planetary
carrier are splined to the planetary connecting drum
and rotate with it as a unit. This causes the output shaft
that is splined to the rear carrier to rotate at the same
speed as the center planetary carrier.

torque is transmitted through the torque converter as

only range in which the forward clutch is not engaged.
In this range, the fourth clutch is applied and this
rotates the sun gear shaft assembly (with the front sun

also applied and anchors the rear ring gear against
rotation. The center sun gear rotates the center carrier
pinions, which in turn rotates the center ring gear in an

opposite direction. The center carrier is splined to the


planetary connecting drum, which is splined to the
rear carrier. The reverse direction of rotation of the
center ring gear rotates the rear sun gear. This causes
the rear planetary pinions to drive the rear carrier in a
reverse direction within the stationary ring gear. This
causes the transmission output shaft, that is splined to
the rear carrier to rotate in a reverse direction at a
speed reduction of 6.04:1.

second clutches are applied. The second clutch application anchors the carrier of the front planetary assembly against rotation. The forward clutch application
locks the turbine driven shaft (input shaft) and the
main shaft together to rotate as a unit. The rear sun
gear is splined to both the rotating main shaft and the
center ring gear, and all three parts rotate at input
speed. With the carrier of the front planetary carrier
assembly anchored against rotation (by second clutch

which the front sun gear is splined. The rotating front


sun gear rotates the front carrier pinions whose carrier
is anchored against rotation by the applied second
clutch. In turn, the rotating front carrier pinions rotate
the front ring gear, which, along with the center carrier, is splined to the rear planetary through the connecting drum. Because the rear carrier hub is splined
to the connecting drum on one end and to the low carrier ring gear on the other end, rotation speed of all
three components is the same. With the low ring gear
driving the low planetary pinions and the low sun gear
(which is splined to the rotating main shaft) also driving the low pinions, output shaft rotates at a speed
reduction of 1.58:1. Refer to the specifications and

anchors the sun gear shaft via the fourth-clutch housing against rotation which prevents the integral center
sun gear from rotating. The forward clutch application
locks the turbine shaft and main shaft together to
rotate as a unit. The rear sun gear is splined to both the
main shaft and the center ring gear and rotates at input
speed. With the center sun gear stationary and the center ring gear rotating, the ring gear drives the center
planetary carrier pinions. This rotates the center planetary carrier at a speed reduction. This carrier and the

232

rear planetary carrier are splined to the planetary connecting drum. The rear carrier hub on the output side is
splined to the low ring gear. When the connecting
drum rotates, the rear carrier and the low ring gear
rotate at the same speed. This rotation causes the low
ring gear to drive the low planetary pinions while the
low sun gear, which is splined to the rotating main
shaft, also drives the low pinions. The result is a further change of ratio (from that produced in the center
planetary). Because the output shaft is splined to the
rear carrier it rotates at the reduction of 1.25:1. Refer

i. Reverse-Range Operation (Figure 214).


Engine torque is transmitted through the torque converter as described in Paragraph 233a. Reverse range
is the only range in which the forward clutch is not
engaged. In this range, the fourth clutch is applied and
this rotates the sun gear shaft assembly, via the fourthclutch housing, at input speed. The low clutch is also
applied and anchors the low ring gear against rotation.
Because the low ring gear, rear carrier, center carrier
and connecting drum are splined together, they form
one stationary unit. When the center sun gear rotates,

234

it causes the pinions in the center carrier to rotate in


the opposite direction. This rotates the center carrier
ring gear in a counterclockwise direction (reverse of
input). This reverse rotation is transferred through the
main shaft and the low planetary carrier to the output
shaft. This causes the transmission output shaft to
rotate in a reverse direction at a speed reduction of
9.65:1 (second range start models have a 2.96:1 ratio
reduction). Refer to the specifications and data chart in
Section 1 for earlier model ratios.

torque is transmitted through the torque converter as

clutches are applied. The low clutch application
anchors the low carrier against rotation. The forward
clutch application locks the turbine shaft and main
shaft together to rotate as a unit. The rear sun gear is
splined to the rotating main shaft and rotates at input
speed. This sun gear rotates the rear planetary carrier
assembly pinions which, in turn, rotates the rear carrier ring gear. Because vehicle inertia tends to restrain

236

the output shaft and the rear carrier from rotating, the
rear carrier pinions rotate the rear ring gear. This, in
turn, rotates the low sun gear, which is splined to the
rear ring gear. With the low carrier held stationary by
the applied low clutch and the low sun gear rotating
the low carrier assembly pinions, the low ring gear
must rotate. Since the rear carrier and the low ring gear
are splined to the output shaft, a combination of rear
and low planetary carrier output ratios are simultaneously introduced to the output shaft to form a speed
reduction of 7.97:1.

Section 3 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE


31.

SCOPE

This section covers routine and periodic procedures required to maintain the transmission in good operating
condition. Included are instructions for inspection,
care of the oil system and breather, linkage adjustment, care of the external lines, transmission filter and
oil cooler, stall testing, storage, and checking fluid
pressures. Troubleshooting information is tabulated at
the end of this section.

32.

INSPECTION AND CARE

The transmission should be kept clean to make inspection easier. Check for loose bolts, loose or leaking oil
lines, fluid leakage, and condition of control linkage
and cables. Check the transmission fluid level at the
intervals specified in the vehicle or Operators Manual.

33.

DIPSTICK CALIBRATION

a. Description. Accurate dipstick calibration is an


essential step to establish and maintain an accurate
transmission fluid level. Calibrate the dipstick at initial
installation of the transmission. Follow the procedure
described below to make a dipstick calibration device.
Use the device to correctly mark the dipstick for any
depth of oil pan used on HT 700 Series transmissions.
Figures 31 and 32 illustrate the dipstick calibration
device. Figure 33 gives dimensions for calibration of
the dipstick for a 4.5 inch oil pan. Figure 34 gives
dimensions for a 6.0 inch oil pan. Figure 35 gives
dimensions for calibration of a 7.0 or an 8.5 inch oil
pan. Figure 36 shows typical dipstick markings for
all oil pan depths.

CLEAR PLASTIC
TUBE

b. Procedure. Create a dipstick calibration device as


detailed in Steps (1) through (3). Mark the actual transmission dipstick as detailed in Steps (4) through (9).

WARNING!
The device described below is intended to be used
for dipstick calibration only. Do not attempt to
check actual transmission fluid level with this
method. Checking actual transmission fluid level
with this method may require a technician to be
under the vehicle with the engine running and
SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTED.
1. Drill a hole through the length of a 12-20 x
0.75 inch long bolt (78-14 x 0.50 inch long for
the 4.5 inch deep pan).
2. Insert a short piece of metal tube, minimum 316
inch ID, into the bolt at the hole provided in
Step (1) above. Braze or solder the tube in place.
3. Attach a piece of clear plastic tubing to the
metal tube. Use a suitable length of clear plastic tubing to extend a minimum of 12 inches
above the oil pan to main case splitline at the
center of the oil pan (front to rear).

WARNING!
Shut off the engine, set the parking brake and/or
emergency brakes, chock the vehicle wheels and
take any other steps necessary to keep the vehicle
from moving while doing Steps (4) through (9).

FLUID LEVEL CHECKS

a. Importance of Proper Fluid Level. Maintaining


the proper fluid level is very important. The transmission fluid is used to apply clutches and to lubricate and
cool the components. If the fluid level is too low, the result can be poor performance (clutches will not receive
adequate fluid supply). If the fluid level is too high,
overheating results from the fluid being churned and
aerated.
b. Foaming and Aerating
1. Transmission performance will be affected
when the fluid foams or aerates. The primary
causes of aeration are low fluid in the sump,
too much fluid in the sump, or a defective or
missing sealring on the intake pipe of the sump
screen.
2. A low fluid level (indicated on the dipstick)
will not completely envelop the oil screen.
Therefore, fluid and air are drawn by the input
pump and directed to the clutches and torque
converter, causing cavitation noises and irregular shifting. Aeration also changes the fluids
viscosity and color so that it resembles a thin
milky liquid.
3. At normal fluid level (FULL mark on the dipstick) the fluid is slightly below the planetary
gear units. If additional fluid is added bringing
the fluid level above the FULL mark, the planetary units will run in the fluid, foaming and
aerating it. Overheating and irregular shift patterns can occur when the fluid is aerated.
4. A defective sealring on the oil screen tube will
cause the input pump to draw air and fluid
from the sump. Foaming and aeration of the
fluid is the result.
c. Fluid Level Check Procedure. Two checks must
be made to ensure proper fluid level in the transmission a Cold Check and a Hot Check. The Cold
Check is required to ensure that there is enough fluid
34

in the transmission to allow normal operation until a


Hot Check can be made. The Hot Check is the most
important and is required to ensure that the fluid level
is correct.

NOTE:
When adding fluid or checking fluid level, dirt or

foreign material must not be allowed to enter the


fill tube. Before removing the dipstick, clean
around the end of the fill tube.
Always check the fluid level at least twice to ensure

that an accurate check is obtained. If inconsistent


dipstick readings occur, check for proper venting
of the transmission breather and/or oil fill tube. A
clogged breather can force fluid up into the filler
tube and cause an inaccurate reading. A dipstick
that anchors inside the top end of an unvented
filler tube can draw fluid up into the tube during
removal and give an inaccurate reading.
Transmission input speed and fluid temperature

significantly affect the fluid level. An increase in input speed lowers the fluid level; an increase in fluid
temperature raises the fluid level. Thus, the fluid
level must always be checked with the engine at
idle (500800 rpm) and the transmission in N (Neutral). A final check of the fluid level must be made
when the transmission reaches normal operating
temperature (160200F; 7193C).

CAUTION:
The COLD RUN band level (Figures 33 through
36) is an approximate dimension that is established by the OEM/Customer at installation. The
exact HOT RUN band dimension and fluid level
must be established prior to the COLD RUN dimension and fluid level. A HOT RUN check for
proper operating fluid level is also required.

WARNING!
To help avoid injury or property damage caused
by sudden and unexpected vehicle movement, do
not check the fluid level until you:
Put the transmission in N (Neutral).
Apply the parking brake and emergency
brakes and make sure they are properly engaged.
Chock the wheels and take any other steps
necessary to keep the vehicle from moving.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
1. Cold Check. Park the vehicle on a level surface. Apply the parking brake and chock the
wheels of the vehicle. Operate the engine at
10001500 rpm for approximately one minute
to purge air from the system (sump fluid temperature should reach 60120F (1649C).
Return engine to idle speed and shift to
D (Drive) and R (Reverse) to fill clutch circuits.
Shift to N (Neutral) and be sure that idle speed
is 500800 rpm. Remove the dipstick, wipe it
clean, reinsert it and remove it again to check
the fluid level. Add or drain transmission fluid
so that fluid level is within the COLD RUN
band. Be sure that fluid added meets the specifications given in Paragraph 35. The transmission can now be run until operating temperature
is reached. Make a hot check as soon as normal
operating temperature is reached.

CAUTION:
The fluid level rises as fluid temperature increases.
DO NOT fill above the COLD RUN band if the
transmission fluid is below normal operating temperature.

NOTE:
Some transmissions have ADD and FULL lines on
their dipsticks instead of HOT RUN bands.
2. Hot Check. Run the transmission normally until
operating temperature is reached. Normal operating temperature is 160200F (7193C)
sump fluid or 180220F (82104C) converterout fluid. Check the fluid level using the same
method as in the cold check above. Add or drain
fluid to produce consistent readings in the HOT
RUN band (or between the ADD and FULL
lines). Be sure that fluid added meets the specifications given in Paragraph 35.

d. Dropbox Oil Check

CAUTION:
Do not overfill the dropbox. Overfilling can cause
excessive fluid temperatures. If fluid level is
above the FULL line, drain fluid as required to
bring it to the proper level.
NOTE:
The dropbox ADD and FULL marks are the same dimensions below the horizontal centerline of the output
shaft for any mounting angle of rotation (0 degrees, 15
degrees, 30 degrees, 45 degrees, or 60 degrees).
1. Transmissions equipped with a transfer gear
housing (dropbox) have two independent oil
circuits: the transmission circuit and the dropbox circuit. Each circuit requires a different
type and grade of fluid and must be checked
and serviced independently.
2. After bringing the dropbox to operating temperatures, park the vehicle on level ground, turn off
the engine, and apply the parking brake.
3. If the dropbox has a fill tube level indicator
(Figure 37), remove the fill tube plug and
check the fluid level. The dropbox is full when
the fluid level is at the top of the fill tube.
4. If the dropbox has a dipstick, remove it and
wipe it clean. Insert the dipstick and check the
fluid level. The safe level for the dropbox is
any level between the FULL and ADD marks
on the dipstick. If the level is at or below the
ADD mark, add fluid to bring the level to midway between the ADD and FULL marks.

TRANSMISSION FLUID
RECOMMENDATIONS

36.

a. Recommended Fluids
1. Transmission fluids used in the transmission
are important influences on transmission reliability. General Motors DEXRON-III or
Allison C-4 approved fluids are recommended. Use Type C-4 SAE 30 fluid in all
applications where the ambient temperature
is consistently above 86F (30C). Use only
Type C-4 SAE 30 transmission fluid in the
dropbox.
2. Some DEXRON-III fluids are also qualified
as Type C-4 fluids. Consult your local Allison
dealer or distributor to determine if a
DEXRON-III fluid is also a qualified Type
C-4 fluid.
b. Cold Weather Start-up. Listed in Table 31 are
the minimum fluid temperatures at which the transmission may be safely operated in a forward or reverse
range. When ambient temperature is below the minimum fluid temperature limit and the transmission is
cold, preheat is required. If auxiliary heating equipment is available, preheat the fluid to the minimum
fluid temperature limit. If auxiliary heating equipment
is not available, run the engine for at least 20 minutes
with the transmission in N (Neutral) before operating
in a forward or reverse range.

CAUTION:
Disregarding minimum fluid temperature limits
can result in transmission malfunction or reduced transmission life.

TRANSMISSION FLUID ANALYSIS


TEST RECOMMENDATIONS

Transmission fluid analysis is recommended because it


plays an essential role in monitoring and understanding
the general condition of the transmission and transmission fluid/filter system. The prime intent of fluid analysis is to evaluate the overall condition of the fluid for
the purpose of monitoring fluid change intervals. Fluid
analysis can also monitor fluid contaminants, assist in
determining transmission failure causes, and monitor
internal wear. Refer to Automatic Transmission Fluids
Technicians Guide GN2055EN for in-depth information on transmission fluid analysis practices.
Table 32 gives the minimum series of tests required
to properly monitor the condition of the transmission
and transmission fluid/filter system. These tests can be
performed by most qualified independent oil analysis
laboratories.
Many qualified independent oil analysis laboratories
provide complete oil analysis and monitoring services
including electronic records keeping and statistical
control. When contracting with a qualified independent oil analysis laboratory, information on product
brand name, manufacturer, and viscosity grade should
be provided. A new or fresh sample of the transmission fluid should be tested to establish a baseline. The
oil analysis laboratory should be advised when changing transmission fluid supplier.
If Allison Engineering is requested to review an oil analysis, the test series data in Table 32 will be required for
complete review and best assessment. Information on
product brand name, manufacturer, and C4 Approval
Number and/or GM DEXRON-III License Number (if
applicable) must be included with the request.

37.

CHANGING THE FLUID


AND FILTERS

a. Cleanliness
1. Fluid must be handled in clean containers to
prevent foreign material from entering the
transmission.

CAUTION:
Do not use containers or fillers for transmission
fluid that have been used for antifreeze solution.
Antifreeze and coolant solutions contain ethylene
glycol, which, if introduced into the transmission, can cause friction-faced clutch plates to fail.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
2. Clean around the fill tube before removing the
dipstick. Lay the dipstick in a clean place
while filling the transmission.
3. Check the current edition of the HT 700 Series
Parts Catalog PC1268EN for proper oil filters.
Keep the filters in cartons until ready for installation.

Table 33 is a general guide. The fluid must be

changed whenever there is evidence of dirt or


high temperature indicated by discoloration or
strong odor.
Fluid change intervals can be optimized by

b. Transmission Fluid and Filter Change Intervals. Transmission fluid and filter change frequencies
are determined by the severity of transmission service
and by the filter equipment installed. More frequent
changes may be required when operating conditions
create high levels of contamination or overheating.

monitoring oxidation according to the tests and


limits shown in Table 34. A fluid is considered suitable for use if it meets all four limits
listed in the table, regardless of color or odor.
If one of the limits is exceeded, however, the
fluid in the transmission should be sampled
again immediately to verify the exceeded limit.
If verified, the fluid must be changed regardless of time or mileage. See Paragraph 36.

Transmission fluid change intervals are determined as


follows.

Filter and filter element change intervals are determined from Table 33.

d. Fluid and Filter Change Procedure


(Foldout 16,B)

NOTE:
Procedures outlined in Steps (3) through (10) are
required only when the suction screen in the oil pan
must be replaced (refer to Table 33).
3. After draining is completed, remove twentythree washer-head screws or bolts 42 (Foldout
16,B) that retain the oil pan to the transmission
housing. Discard pan gasket 38 and clean the
pan with mineral spirits.
4. Remove bolt 30 (Foldout 16,B) and washer 31.
Remove and inspect oil screen 33 (and spacer
32 on later models). If damage has occurred,
replace the screen. Clean and reuse the screen
if it is in satisfactory condition. Remove, clean,
and reinstall the governor feed line screen in
the valve body (Figure 6123). Refer to Paragraphs 630a(9) and 630c(27).
5. Prior to installing screen 33, install new sealring 34 (Foldout 16,B) onto the oil intake pipe
(integral with screen). Lubricate the sealring
with transmission fluid.
6. Install the oil screen (aligned so screen does
not require twisting), inserting the oil intake
pipe into the hole in the bottom of the transmission. Secure the oil screen with a 516-18 x
158 inch washer-head screw. Tighten the screw
to 1720 lb ft (2327 Nm).

CAUTION:
NOTE:
The following procedure is for 6 inch oil pans. For
412 inch, 7 inch, and 812 inch oil pans, the procedure is the same but the torque values may differ.
Consult Foldouts 17,A and 17,B for the correct
torque values.

1. The fluid should be warm when draining. This


ensures quicker and better drainage.
2. On earlier models, remove the fill tube from
the oil pan and allow the fluid to drain. On later
models, remove the drain plug from the rear of
the oil pan and allow the fluid to drain. Check
the condition of the fluid as described in Paragraph 38.
38

Gasket cements, sealing compounds, vegetablebased cooking compounds, or fibrous non-soluble greases must never be used inside the transmission. Only oil-soluble grease (petrolatum)
may be used for retaining parts temporarily.
7. Place the oil pan gasket onto the oil pan. A
sealing compound or gasket cement may be
applied only to the oil pan flange area that is
outside the raised bead of the flange. Do not
use grease on cork gaskets.
8. Install the oil pan and gasket, carefully guiding
them into place. Guard against dirt or foreign
material entering the pan. Install the pan to the
housing by attaching a 516-18 x 58 inch
washer-head screw or 516-18 x 58 inch bolt to
each corner of the pan.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
9. Install the remaining nineteen washer-head
screws or bolts, carefully threading each one
through the gasket. Attach all remaining
screws before tightening them.
10. Alternately tighten screws 180 degrees apart to
5 lb ft (7 Nm). Repeat the process tightening
the screws to 1013 lb ft (1418 Nm).
11. On later models, install the fill tube at the side
of the pan and tighten the fill tube retainer nut
to 4050 lb ft (5468 Nm) for the 412 inch
pan and 90100 lb ft (122136 Nm) for all
other pans. On later models, install the oil
drain plug at the rear of the oil pan and tighten
the plug to 1520 lb ft (2027 Nm).
12. Remove the dipstick and pour approximately
30 qts (28.4 L) of transmission fluid into the
transmission through the fill tube. Then check
the fluid level using the procedure described in
Paragraph 34.

38.

FLUID CONTAMINATION

a. Monitoring Contaminant Levels. Contaminant


levels can be monitored by transmission fluid test analysis. Refer to Paragraph 36.
b. Examine at Fluid Change. At each fluid change,
examine the drained fluid for evidence of dirt or water. A normal amount of condensation will emulsify in
the fluid during operation of the transmission. However, if there is evidence of water, check the cooler
(heat exchanger) for leakage between the water and
fluid areas. Fluid in the water side of the cooler (or vehicle radiator) is another sign of leakage and may indicate leakage from the engine oil system. Any sludge
or soft dirt in the sump should also be removed.
c. Metal Particles. Metal particles in the fluid (except for the minute particles normally trapped in the
filter) indicate damage has occurred in the transmission.
When these particles are found in the sump, the transmission must be disassembled and closely inspected to
identify the source. Metal contamination requires complete disassembly of the transmission and cleaning of
all internal and external circuits, cooler, and other areas
where the particles could lodge. During the repair of a
major internal failure of a transmission, it should be
dismantled into as many serviceable detail parts as pos-

sible and thoroughly cleaned. Do not disassemble the


unit just to the problem area.
d. Coolant Leakage
1. The presence of ethylene glycol coolant in the
transmission fluid is detrimental to the reliability and durability of the internal components.
Ethylene glycol has a deteriorating effect on
friction-faced clutch plates and nonmetallic
components (seals, gaskets, etc.) and on highly
loaded steel parts, such as bearings and gears,
due to reduced lubrication from the fluid.
2. If ethylene glycol in the fluid is suspected, immediately perform a verification test. A GlyTek test kit is available and is a quick and easy
method to determine the presence of glycol. If
glycol is found, disassemble the transmission,
inspect and remove all traces of coolant and
varnish deposits resulting from coolant contamination. Replace all seals, gaskets, and friction-faced clutch plates. The cooler should be
repaired or replaced prior to installation of the
new or rebuilt transmission.
e. Auxiliary Filter. If a transmission failure has occurred and introduced debris into the oil system, a
complete cleanup of the system is required. Repeated
cleaning and flushing does not ensure a clean (free
from debris) oil system, due to cooler retention. To
prevent a repeated transmission failure, it is recommended that an auxiliary filter be installed in the output line of the oil cooler. This recommendation applies whether the failed transmission is overhauled or
replaced by a new or rebuilt unit. The auxiliary filter
must have a 40 micron particle filtering capacity and a
maximum pressure drop of 2 psi at 15 gal/min
(13.79 kPa at .946 l/s). The maximum pressure drop
in the cooler circuit must not exceed 30 psi at 15 gal/
min (206 kPa at .946 l/s) at operating temperature and
at full throttle stall. The filter assemblies and filter elements shown in Table 35 are recommended for use
in retarder and non-retarder equipped transmissions.
Monitor auxiliary filter elements for contamination
after 5001000 hours operation and service when the
filtering system alerts the operator before the filter bypasses (if equipped). Filter change intervals thereafter
are determined by the vehicles operating condition.

BREATHER

CAUTION:
Do not spray steam, water, or cleaning solution
directly at the breather. This can force the water
or cleaning solution into the transmission.

CAUTION:
Pliers or a pipe wrench can crush or damage the
stem and may produce metal chips which could
enter the transmission.
The breather is located at the top of the transmission
housing as shown in Figure 12. The breather prevents
pressure buildup within the transmission. The breather
must be kept clean and the passage open. The amount
of dust and dirt determines the frequency the breather
requires cleaning. Always use the proper size wrench
to remove or replace the breather.

310. LINKAGE
CAUTION:
Failure to obtain proper detent in DR (Drive),
N (Neutral), or R (Reverse) can cause metering
of the clutch-apply fluid to either the forward or
fourth (reverse) clutch. The resulting low apply
pressure and clutch slippage affects the transmission durability.
a. General Information. Maintain proper adjustment of all linkage. Periodic inspections should be
made for defective parts. Bent or worn parts should be
replaced. All moving parts must be kept clean and well
lubricated.
310

b. Selector Lever Installation and Adjustment

CAUTION:
Manual selector shafts that are center-drilled at
their outer ends require an M10 x 1.56G nut
(metric thread). Shafts that are not drilled require
a 38-16 nut (standard inch series). Using the wrong
nut damages both the shaft and the nut. Torque for
either nut is 1520 lb ft (2027 Nm). Excessive
torque applied to the external selector lever retaining nut may damage the internal selector lever.
1. To properly install the external lever, rotate
the manual selector shaft to a position that is
two detent notches from either end of its
travel. Install the external lever so the flat
sides of the shaft opening are parallel to the
flats on the shaft, then install the nut. While
holding the lever against rotation, tighten the
nut to 1520 lb ft (2027 Nm).
2. Refer to the vehicle manual for specific linkage
adjustment procedures. The following general
procedures are applicable to most vehicles.
The manual selector lever should move
easily and give a crisp detent feel in each
position.
The linkage should be adjusted so that the
stops in the shift tower are positioned by
the detents in the transmission.
c. Input Retarder Linkage Adjustment. Clean
and lubricate all hydraulic input retarder valve linkage.
The retarder is applied when the valve moves upward
(out of the valve body). Therefore, it is important for
normal operation with the retarder Off that the linkage
be adjusted so the valve returns to the retracted position. If the linkage causes the retarder to be partially
applied, loss of lubrication pressure, overheating, or
excessive drag and excessive fuel consumption occurs.
If the valve does not have full travel (1.5 inch
(38.1 mm)), maximum performance of the input retarder cannot be obtained.
d. Modulator Valve Actuator Adjustment
1. It is imperative that the mechanical linkage be
properly adjusted for efficient performance.
2. Place the fuel control lever on the engine at full
throttle position.
3. Place the mechanical actuator cable at full
throttle position against the mechanical stop.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
4. Adjust the clevis at the fuel control lever so the
pin fits freely through the hole in the clevis,
making sure the lever is secure.
5. Total control cable travel should not be less
than 1.187 inch (30.14 mm) or more than 1.56
inch (39.62 mm).
e. Disconnect Control Linkage
(Dropbox Models Only)

and trimmer regulator. If a test stand is not


available, satisfactory calibration of shift points
may be made after road testing the vehicle.
b. Location of Adjusting Components
1. Shift speeds are changed by changing the positions of adjusting rings that determine the retaining force of certain valve springs in the
valve body. Refer to items 22, 78, 88, 97, 102,
and 108 (Foldout 20,B) and 34 (Foldout 21,A).

CAUTION:
Improper shifter shaft adjustment reduces lube
oil flow to the disconnect clutch needle bearing.
1. If a manual or air actuator is used, adjust the
linkage or the cylinder stroke to give a crisp
detent at the engaged and disengaged positions
(approximately 1.06 inch (26.9 mm)).
2. Push the shifter shaft inward to the engaged
position detent. Rotate the shaft until the outer
end of the shaft is 1.291.33 inch (32.833.8
mm) from the face of the housing.

311. SHIFT SPEED ADJUSTMENTS


NOTE:
Transmission shift points cannot be satisfactorily adjusted if the transmission has an incorrect governor
installed. Check the three-digit code on the governor
with the governor code shown in the current Parts
Catalog PC1268EN for the transmission assembly
part number. If the letter M follows the three-digit
code, the governor is a service replacement assembly.
If the M is not included, the governor was installed
during the factory build.

2. Special tool J 24314 is used to depress and rotate the adjusting rings to the proper positions.
Clockwise rotation increases spring force and
raises the shift point. Counterclockwise rotation reduces spring force and will lower the
shift point.
NOTE:
Each notch of adjustment alters the shift point by
the approximate amount as follows.
HT 754CR,
HT 740, HT 747
HT 750CR And DR
12 Shift: 40 rpm
12 Shift: 10 rpm
23 Shift: 40 rpm
23 Shift: 10 rpm
34 Shift: 40 rpm
34 Shift: 25 rpm
45 Shift: 35 rpm
c. Checks Before Adjusting Shift Points
1. When calibration is made during a road test or
on a test stand that simulates road operation,
certain preparations must be made.
2. Bring the temperature of the transmission fluid
to 160220F (71104C).

a. Calibrated on Test Stand or in Vehicle


1. Proper timing of shift speed points is necessary
for maximum transmission performance. Shifts
may be adjusted on the test stand when the
transmission is rebuilt or overhauled, or during
road testing the vehicle.
2. The Kent Moore Valve and Governor Test
Stand (J 25000), or Aidco (Model 250) is designed to check the following five principle
transmission functions: governor, modulator,
hold regulator, shift points (up-down-inhibit),

3. Check the engine no-load governor setting and


adjust, if required, to conform to the transmissions engine speed requirements.
4. Check the engine for satisfactory performance
before making shift point adjustments.
5. For mechanical modulator valve actuators,
check the throttle linkage that controls the mechanical modulator valve actuator on the transmission for proper travel, routing, and
operation.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

311

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


6. For electrical modulator valve actuators, check
the electric modulator system for proper connections, wire routing, and operation.
7. Check the shift selector linkage for proper
range selection.
8. Provide accurate instrumentation required for
observing speeds, temperatures, pressures, etc.
d. Calibration By Road Test Method
(Using Tachometer Readings)
NOTE:
Before road test, determine the accuracy of the vehicle tachometer by comparing it to a known good
tachometer. Make corrections for error, as required, in subsequent tests.
1. Subtract 100 rpm from the engine full-load
governed speed and record the remainder as
the desired speed for all automatic upshifts to
occur, except the 12 shift in HT 750CR models. The 12 shift in the HT 750CR must occur
at 100 rpm below lockup engagement speed.
2. If doubt exists regarding when lockup is occurring in HT 750CR and HT 754CR models, install a 0300 psi (02068 kPa) gauge at the
lockup pressure tap. During road operation in
1-hold, observe the first movement of the
gauge and record rpm. This is first gear lockup
engagement speed.
3. While driving the vehicle in Drive 14
(HT 740) or Drive 25 (HT 750) range, check
the wide-open throttle upshift points. These
shifts should occur at 100 rpm below engine
no-load governed speed. If upshift speed points
do not reach those specified, the shift point
speed may be raised by adjusting (increasing)
the spring load on the 12, 23, 34, or 45
(HT 750 only) shift signal valve. If upshift
speeds are above those engine speeds specified, or do not occur at all, the spring load(s)
must be reduced. Only the load on springs for
the valve (or valves) which do not upshift at
the proper speed require adjustment.
4. Refer to Sections 5, 6, and 7 for procedures
covering removal and replacement of affected
components. Refer to Table 82 for Spring
Data.
312

e. Calibration By Alternate Road Test Method


(Using Speedometer Readings)
1. If a tachometer is not available for checking shift
points, the vehicle speedometer can be used.
Proceed as outlined in Steps (2) through (4).
2. Check and record the road speed of the vehicle
at which lockup occurs in the HT 750CR and
HT 754CR models during operation in 1-hold
(refer to Paragraph 311d(2)). Also check and
record the top speeds that can be attained while
operating in 12, 23, and 34 ranges (HT 750
only).
3. For checking the shift points, place the selector
in Drive 14 (HT 740, 747), 15 (HT 750CR,
754CR), or 25 (HT 750DR), so that all automatic shifts can occur. Drive the vehicle at full
throttle from a standing start until the 34
(HT 740) or 45 (HT 750) upshift occurs.
Record the road speed at which each upshift
occurs.
4. Compare the upshift speeds with the speeds recorded in Step (2). The 12 shift in HT 750
and 754CR models should occur at approximately two mph below the speed recorded for
lockup engagement. All other upshifts should
occur approximately two mph below the top
speeds recorded in Step (2).
f. Calibration by Test Stand Method. Shift Points
Tables 36 through 313 provide information required
for adjusting shift points on transmissions matched to
engines having governed speeds from 18003000 rpm.
The tables list engine descriptions and their corresponding alphabetic calibration codes. Each alphabetic
calibration code denotes which calibration column to
use in Shift Points Tables 36 through 313 to calibrate the corresponding transmission. THE ALPHABETIC CALIBRATION CODES DO NOT FOLLOW
PREVIOUS CALIBRATION DATA SHEETS OR
SERVICE MANUAL COLUMN IDENTIFIERS.
The actual adjustment procedures are as outlined in
Paragraph 311b. However, the base for checks and
adjustments is output shaft speeds instead of engine
governed speed. Individual output shaft speed ranges
are given for each shift.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
312. EXTERNAL LINES AND
OIL COOLER

3. Perform a cold check of the transmission fluid


level and adjust as necessary.
4. Install an accurate tachometer (do not rely on
the vehicle tachometer).

a. External Lines
1. Inspect for loose or leaking connections;
worn or damaged hoses, or tubing; and loose
fastenings.
2. Examine the radiator coolant for traces of
transmission fluid. This condition indicates a
faulty heat exchanger.
b. Oil Cooler. Transmission operation at abnormally
high temperatures can cause the oil cooler to clog as
well as transmission failure. Thoroughly clean the oil
cooler system after each major or minor rebuild (Paragraph 38e). Failure to do so may cause poor performance, overheating and transmission damage. For recommendations for cleaning or flushing the oil cooler,
see the vehicle Service Manual.

313. TRANSMISSION STALL TEST


a. Purpose
1. Stall testing is performed to determine whether
a power complaint is due to an engine problem
or a transmission malfunction.
2. Stall speed is the maximum engine rpm attainable when the engine is at full throttle and
when the torque converter turbine is not moving, or stalled.
3. During a stall test, compare the actual engine
speed at full throttle stall with established vehicle manufacturers specifications.
NOTE:
Engine stall point data can be obtained from the vehicle manufacturer or from the equipment dealer or
distributor.
4. Stall tests are used as troubleshooting procedures only do not perform them as general
checks or maintenance.
b. Stall Test Preparation
1. Make sure the fuel control linkage goes to full
throttle and does not stick when released.
2. Check the air induction system for restrictions.

5. Install a temperature gauge with the probe in


the transmission converter-out (to cooler) line.

WARNING!
To help avoid injury or property damage caused
by sudden and unexpected vehicle movement, do
not start a stationary stall test until you:
Put the transmission in N (Neutral)...and
Apply the parking brake and emergency
brakes and make sure they are properly engaged...and
Chock the wheels and take any other steps
necessary to keep the vehicle from moving.
6. Block the vehicle wheels.
7. Start the engine and let the transmission sump
warm to normal operating temperature (160
200F; 7193C).
8. Perform a hot check of the transmission fluid
level and adjust as necessary.
9. Turn all engine accessories OFF.
10. Notify everyone to stay clear of the vehicle.
CAUTION:
The stall condition causes a rapid rise in fluid
temperature; never maintain the stall for more
than 30 seconds at any one time. Do not let the
converter-out fluid temperature exceed 300F
(149C). During stall conditions, converter-out
temperatures rise much faster than internal temperatures. Do not use internal fluid temperature
to determine the length of the stall condition. If
the stall test is repeated, do not let the engine
overheat. Allow the system to cool down between
stall checks by performing the cool-down as described in Paragraph 313e. If the unit does not
have a converter-out temperature gauge, do not
stall the converter.

CAUTION:
Do not attempt to stall test the HT 750 or 754CR
transmission in R (Reverse), or the HT 750DR in
first range. The extremely high torque produced
in either of these ranges may damage the transmission and/or the vehicle driveline.

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


NOTE:
For vehicles with engines not equipped with smoke
controls, proceed to Paragraph 313c.
For vehicles with engines equipped with smoke
controls, skip Paragraph 313c and proceed to
Paragraph 313d.
c. Stall Test Procedures Vehicles Without
Smoke-Controlled Engines
1. Apply the vehicle parking and service brakes.
2. Shift to D (Drive).
3. Slowly accelerate to full throttle.
4. When the tachometer levels off, record the
maximum engine rpm attained.
5. Slowly release the throttle.
6. Shift to N (Neutral).
7. Skip Paragraph 313d and proceed immediately with Paragraph 313e Cool-Down
Check.
d. Stall Test Procedures Vehicles With
Smoke-Controlled Engines
NOTE:
Because smoke controls and throttle-delay mechanisms inhibit engine acceleration, the stall testing may
need to be performed while the vehicle is moving.
1. Locate an isolated area to perform the driving
stall test.
2. Select a hold range that will limit road speed
(usually 2nd or 3rd range).
3. Operate the engine at full throttle, maximum
governed rpm.
4. Slowly depress the vehicle service brakes
while staying at full throttle.
5. When the vehicle comes to a stop, record the
engine rpm. This is the stall speed.
6. Proceed immediately with Paragraph 313e
Cool-Down Check.
e. Neutral Cool-Down Check Procedure
1. The neutral cool-down check determines if the
transmission fluid cools properly following an
322

engine load condition. Perform this check immediately after the engine speed has been recorded in the stall test.
2. Record the converter-out fluid temperature.
3. With the transmission remaining in N (Neutral), run the engine at 12001500 rpm for two
minutes to cool the fluid.
4. At the end of two minutes, record the converter-out fluid temperature. Converter-out
fluid temperature should return to within the
limits of normal operation.
f. Results
NOTE:
Environmental conditions, such as ambient temperature, altitude, engine accessory loss variations, etc.,
affect the power input to the converter. Under such
conditions, a stall speed deviation up to 150 rpm
from specification can be accepted as within normal
range.
1. An engine stall speed more than 150 rpm below the stall speed specified by the engine
manufacturer indicates an engine problem,
such as the need for a tune-up.
2. An engine stall speed more than 150 rpm
above specification indicates a transmission
problem, such as slipping clutches, cavitation,
or torque converter failure.
3. An extremely low stall speed, such as 33 percent of the specified engine stall rpm, during
which the engine does not smoke, could indicate a freewheeling torque converter stator.
4. If the engine stall speed conforms to specification, but the transmission fluid overheats, refer
to the cool-down check. If the fluid does not
cool during the two-minute cool-down check, a
stuck torque converter stator could be indicated.
5. If the engine stall speed does not conform to
specification and the cool-down check shows
that the transmission fluid cools properly, refer to Paragraph 322 for troubleshooting
procedures.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
314. PRESERVATION AND STORAGE
a. Storage, New Transmissions (Prior to Installation). New transmissions are tested with preservative
fluid and drained prior to shipment. The residual fluid
remaining in the transmission provides adequate protection to safely store the transmission for one full
year (stored without further treatment, indoors in conditions of normal climate, and with all shipping plugs
installed).
b. Preservation Methods. When the transmission is
stored or remains inactive for an extended period (one
or more years), specific preservation methods are recommended to prevent damage due to rust, corrosion,
and organic growth in the fluid. Preservation methods
are presented for storage with and without transmission fluid.

NOTE:
When calculating the amount of Biobor JF required, use the total volume of the system, not just
the quantity required to fill the transmission. Include external lines, filters, and the cooler.
3. Run the engine for approximately five minutes
at 1500 rpm with the transmission in
N (Neutral).
4. Drive the vehicle. Make sure the transmission
shifts through all ranges. If it is equipped with
a converter lockup clutch, make sure the
lockup clutch activates.
5. Continue running the engine at 1500 rpm with
the transmission in N (Neutral) until normal
operating temperature is reached.

c. Storage, One Year Without Fluid

CAUTION:
1. Drain the fluid.

If the unit does not have a converter-out temperature gauge, do not stall the converter.

2. If the breather can be easily removed, spray 1


fluid ounce (30 milliliters) of VCI #10 (or
equivalent) into the transmission through the
breather hole. Also, spray 1 fluid ounce (30
milliliters) through the fill tube hole. If the
breather cannot be removed, spray 2 fluid
ounces (60 milliliters) into the transmission
through the fill tube hole.
3. Seal all openings and breather with moistureproof tape.
4. Coat all exposed, unpainted surfaces with preservative grease such as petrolatum (MIL-C11796), Class 2.
5. If additional storage time is required, repeat
Steps (2) and (4) at yearly intervals.
d. Storage, One Year With Fluid
1. Drain the fluid and replace the oil filter elements (Paragraph 37).
2. Fill the transmission to operating level with a
mixture of one part VCI #10 (or equivalent) to
30 parts DEXRON-III or C-4 transmission
fluid. Add 14 teaspoon of Biobor JF (or
equivalent) for each 3 gallons (1 milliliter for
every 10 liters) of fluid in the system.

6. If normal operating temperature is less than


225F (107C), shift the transmission to forward range and stall the converter. Do not exceed 225F (107C).
7. As soon as the transmission is cool enough to
touch, seal all openings and the breather with
moisture-proof tape.
8. Coat all exposed, unpainted surfaces with preservative grease such as petrolatum (MIL-C11796), Class 2.
9. If additional storage time is required, repeat
Steps (2) through (8) at yearly intervals; except, it is not necessary to drain the transmission each year. Just add VCI #10 and Biobor
JF (or equivalents).
e. Restoring Transmission to Service
1. Remove all tape from openings and the
breather.
2. Wash off all external grease with mineral spirits.
3. If the transmission is new, drain the residual
preservative fluid. Refill the transmission to the
proper
level
(Paragraph
37)
with
DEXRON-III or C-4 transmission fluid.

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

323

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


4. If the transmission was prepared for storage
without fluid, drain the residual fluid and replace the oil filter elements. Refill the transmission to the proper level with DEXRON-III or
C-4 transmission fluid.
5. If the transmission was prepared for storage
with fluid, it is not necessary to drain and refill
the transmission with new transmission fluid.
Check for proper fluid level (Paragraph 34).
Add or drain transmission fluid as required to
obtain the proper level.

315. RETAINING INPUT OR


OUTPUT FLANGE

grease. Install the flange retaining washer and


nut.

CAUTION:
The use of an impact wrench requires a means to
hold the flange. Failure to hold the flange can
cause internal damage to the transmission.

3. Retain the flange with holding bar J 3453.


Tighten output flange nuts to 600800 lb ft
(8131085 Nm); tighten input flange nuts to
450550 lb ft (610746 Nm).

316. OUTPUT SEAL AND BEARING


REPLACEMENT IN VEHICLE

a. Removal
1. Before removing the retaining nut, check the
number of notches that have been cut into the
wrenching flats by previous technicians (each
notch indicates one time the nut has been reused). If there are five notches, do not use the
nut.
2. If there are less than five notches (or none at
all), remove all dirt and any burrs from the exposed shaft threads. Then, only loosen the nut
until there is approximately 116 inch (1.6 mm)
gap between the nut and flange.
3. Check the running torque while removing the
nut. The nut can be reused only if it meets the
following requirements:

a. Removal (Foldout 20,A)


1. Disconnect the vehicle drive shaft and remove
the flange (refer to Paragraph 315).
2. Remove the dust shield and oil seal as described in Paragraph 622a.
3. Remove the snapring that retains the output
bearing.
4. Using puller tools J 24420 and J 24534, remove the rear bearing (Figure 38). The legs of
the bearing remover are designed to lock between the inner and outer races of the bearing.
Do not force the feet of the legs into position.
Forcing may damage the races.

The first time (no notches) the nut is

removed the running torque must be at least


400 lb in. (45 Nm).

REAR COVER

Each additional time (one to four notches)

the nut is removed the running torque must


be at least 300 lb in. (34 Nm).

REAR BEARING
J 24534

b. Installation
1. Each time the nut is reused, deeply scribe one
of the wrenching flats. This method of marking
the nut indicates how many times the nut has
been reused.

319. TROUBLESHOOTING BEFORE


REMOVAL OR OPERATION
a. Visual Inspection. Do not operate the vehicle
prior to completing the procedures described in this
paragraph. Inspect for fluid leakage. Visually inspect
all splitlines, plugs, and all hoses and tube connections
at the transmission and cooler. Fluid leakage at splitlines may be caused by loose mounting bolts or defective gaskets. Tighten all bolts, plugs, and connections
where leakage is found. Check to ensure that the modulator control cable and linkage are free.
b. System Knowledge. The engine and transmission
must be treated as a single package during trouble-

shooting. A thorough study of the description and operation of the components and hydraulic system is
helpful in determining the cause of trouble.
NOTE:
Changes in sound caused by normal engine thermostatic fan cycling, while climbing a long grade with
a heavy load, have been mistaken for transmissionrelated sounds.
c. Monitoring Contaminant Levels. Identifying
contaminants and their quantities by transmission fluid
test analysis may be useful in determining the cause of
transmission failure. Refer to Paragraph 36.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

a. Ordering Information. Refer to the current issue


of Parts Catalog PC1268EN for parts information.
b. Parts Normally Replaced. The following parts
are normally replaced at each transmission overhaul.
Gaskets
Lockstrips
Washers or snaprings damaged by removal
Oil seals, piston sealrings

WARNING!
Do not burn discarded Teflon seals; toxic gases
are produced by burning.

44.

CAUTION:
Caustic cleaning compounds will damage some
transmission parts. Use only mineral spirits.
b. Cleaning Parts
1. All the metallic parts of the transmission, except bearings and friction-faced clutch plates,
should be thoroughly cleaned with mineral
spirits or by the steam cleaning method. Do not
use caustic soda solution for steam cleaning.
Use only mineral spirits to clean friction-faced
clutch plates.
2. Parts should be dried with compressed air.
Steam-cleaned parts should be oiled immediately after drying.
3. Clean oil passages by moving a piece of soft
wire back-and-forth through the passages and
flushing with mineral spirits. Dry the passages
with compressed air.
4. Examine parts, especially oil passages, after
cleaning to make certain they are entirely
clean. Reclean if necessary.

CAREFUL HANDLING

1 8

During all rebuild procedures, parts and subassemblies


must be handled carefully to prevent nicking, scratching, and denting. Parts with close operating tolerances
can bind if damaged. Parts that depend upon smooth
surfaces for sealing may leak if scratched. This is very
important for control valve body assembly parts
(valves, when dry, must move freely by their own
weight). These parts must be carefully handled and
protected during removal, cleaning, inspection, and
installation as well as kept clean while in storage containers.

45.

it is very important that dirt or foreign material must


not be allowed to enter the transmission. Even minute
particles can cause the malfunction of close-fit parts
(such as valves).

c. Cleaning Bearings
1. Bearings that have been in service must be
thoroughly washed in mineral spirits.
2. Soak the bearings in mineral spirits if they are
extremely dirty or filled with hardened grease.
3. Before inspection, oil the bearings with the
same type of oil used in the transmission.

tion. Observe the following rules to ensuring maximum bearing life.


1. Do not remove the wrapper from new bearings
until ready to install them.
2. Do not remove the grease in which new bearings are packed.

WARNING!

3. Do not lay bearings on a dirty bench. Place


them on a clean paper or lint-free cloth.

Never dry bearings by spinning them with compressed air. A spinning bearing can disintegrate,
allowing balls or rollers to become lethal flying
projectiles. Also, spinning a bearing without lubrication can damage the bearing.

4. If assembly is not immediately completed,


wrap or cover the lubricated bearings with
clean paper or lint-free cloth to keep out dust.
e. Inspecting Cast Parts, Machined Surfaces

d. Keeping Bearings Clean. The presence of dirt or


grit in ball bearings is the usual cause of bearing failures. Keep bearings clean during removal and installa-

dirt. Remove scratches and burrs with crocus

cloth. Replace parts that are deeply scratched
or grooved.
2. Inspect all oil passages for obstructions. If an
obstruction is found, remove it with compressed air or by working a soft wire back and
forth through the passage, flushing it out with
mineral spirits.
3. Inspect mounting faces for nicks, burrs,
scratches, and foreign matter. Remove these
defects with crocus cloth or a soft stone. If
scratches are deep, replace the defective part.
4. Inspect threaded openings for damaged
threads. Clean damaged threads using the correct size used tap (a new tap can cut oversize).

TRIMMER

5. Inspect the ribs inside the main housing for reaction clutch plate wear grooves. Replace
housings that have wear grooves beyond wear
limits. (Refer to Table 81, Wear Limits.)
6. Replace housings or other cast parts that are
cracked.
7. Inspect all machined surfaces for damage that
could cause fluid leakage or other malfunction
of the part. Rework or replace the defective
parts.
8. Inspect the fluid tracks in the valve body and
main housing for porosity, broken lands,
cracks, dirt, and land surface imperfections.
These imperfections may cause severe fluid
leakage and lead to transmission failure. The
oil tracks identified in Figure 47 assist in locating troubled areas.

f. Inspecting Bearings

h. Inspecting Sealrings, Gaskets

1. Inspect bearings for roughness of rotation. Replace a bearing if its rotation is still rough after
cleaning and lubricating.
2. Inspect bearings for scored, pitted, scratched,
cracked, or chipped races, and for excessive
wear of rollers or balls. Replace the bearing if
any of these defects are found.
3. Inspect the defective bearing housing and shaft
for grooved, burred, or galled conditions that
indicates the bearing had been turning in the
bore or on the shaft. Replace the defective part
if the damage cannot be repaired with crocus
cloth.
4. When installing a bearing on a shaft, heat the
bearing to 200F (93C) in a fluid bath (approximately 30 minutes). Use the proper size
installation sleeve and a press to seat the bearing.
5. When removing a bearing, do not apply pressure across the balls. This can cause burnelling
and bearing failure.
6. If a bearing must be removed or installed without a sleeve, press only on the race which is adjacent to the mounting surface. If a press is not
available, seat the bearing with a drift and
hammer by driving against the supported race.
g. Inspecting Bushings, Thrust Washers
1. Inspect bushings for scores, burrs, roundness,
sharp edges, and evidence of overheating. Remove scores with crocus cloth. Remove burrs
and sharp edges with a scraper or knife blade.
Replace a bushing, using the proper size replacement tool, if it is out-of-round, deeply
scored, or excessively worn.

1. Inspect piston sealrings and lip-type seals for


nicks, cuts, tears, splits and pattern damage. A
damaged seal can indicate rough or sharp
edges in piston grooves or on a mating surface
that could damage a new seal.
2. Replace all composition gaskets.
3. Inspect hook-type sealrings for wear, broken
hooks, and distortion.
4. Install a new hook-type sealring if the ring
shows any wear on the OD, or if there is excessive side wear.
5. The sides of the sealring must be smooth
(0.005 inch (0.13 mm) maximum side wear).
The sides of the shaft groove (or the bore) that
the sealring fits into should be smooth (50 microinches (1.27 micrometers) equivalent) and
square with the axis of rotation within 0.002
inch (0.05 mm). Install a new sealring if the
sides of the grooves have to be reworked.
6. Inspect clutch housing sealring surfaces for
nicks, burrs, dents, or displaced metal that
could interfere with mating parts or damage
the piston seal. Remove raised metal, sharp
edges, burrs, or nicks with a soft stone and crocus cloth. Thoroughly clean all residue from
housing prior to assembly.
7. Inspect sealring grooves in the piston for nicks,
burrs, dents, or displaced metal that could
damage the seal. Remove raised metal, sharp
edges, burrs, or nicks with a soft stone and crocus cloth. Thoroughly clean all residue from
the piston prior to assembly.
i. Inspecting Gears
1. Inspect gears for scuffed, nicked, burred, or
broken teeth. Replace the gear if the defect
cannot be removed with a soft stone.

CAUTION:
When a defective bushing is removed, care
should be taken to prevent damage to the bushing bore.
2. Inspect thrust washers for distortion, scores,
burrs, and wear. Replace the thrust washer if it
is defective or worn.
412

2. Inspect gear teeth for wear that may have destroyed the original tooth shape. Replace the
gear if this condition is found.
3. Inspect the thrust face of gears for scores,
scratches, and burrs. Remove these defects
with a soft stone. Replace the gear if scratches
and scores cannot be removed.

GENERAL OVERHAUL INFORMATION


j. Inspecting Splined Parts. Inspect splined parts
for stripped, twisted, chipped, or burred splines.
Remove burrs with a soft stone. Replace the part if other
defects are found. Spline wear is not considered detrimental except when it affects the fit of the splined parts.
k. Inspecting Threaded Parts. Inspect parts for
burred or damaged threads. Replace damaged parts if
the burrs cannot be removed with a soft stone or fine
file.
l. Inspecting Snaprings. Inspect and replace all
snaprings found with nicks, distortion, and excessive
wear. The snapring must snap tight in its groove for
proper functioning.
m. Inspecting Springs. Inspect and replace all
springs found with signs of overheating, permanent
set, or wear due to rubbing adjacent parts. Refer to
Table 82, Spring Data.
n. Inspecting Clutch Plates
1. Inspect friction-faced steel plates (internalsplined plates) for burrs, embedded metal particles, severely pitted faces, loose facings, excessive wear, cone, cracks, distortion, and damaged
spline teeth. Remove burrs using a soft honing
stone. Replace plates which have other defects.
2. Inspect steel plates (external-tanged plates) for
burrs, scoring, excessive wear, cone, distortion,
imbedded metal, galling, cracks, breaks, and
damaged tangs. Remove burrs and minor surface irregularities using a soft honing stone.
Replace plates which have other defects.
3. Determine the amount of cone in clutch plates
by measuring the distance between the ID of
the plate and a level surface (Figure 48). Discard plates having excessive cone (refer to
Wear Limits, Table 81). When assembling a
clutch pack, soak friction-faced clutch plates (2
minute minimum) in transmission fluid. Ensure that each plate is installed so the cone of
each plate faces the same direction as the cone
of the adjacent plates.

LEVEL SURFACE

CLUTCH PLATE

Measure here for cone

V00778

Figure 48. Method of Measuring Clutch Plate Cone

q. Inspecting Sealing Surfaces


1. At locations contacted by hook-type and buttjoint sealrings, inspect the ID for step-wear,
nicks, scratches, and scoring. Remove only the
raised metal portion of these defects with a soft
stone or crocus cloth. Polishing the area to remove the defect is not necessary or desirable.
If the defects are severe replace the defective
part.
2. At locations contacted by spring-loaded, liptype seals, inspect for nicks, scratches, roughness, or other surface irregularities. Also inspect for embedded particles, step wear, and
dirt on flanges or other components exposed to
external contamination. Remove the defects
and restore the finish. Replace the part if scores
or scratches permits fluid leakage.

46.

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

a. Clutches, Pistons
1. After clutch pack clearances have been established, soak each friction-face clutch plate
(two-minute minimum) in transmission fluid
prior to final assembly.
2. Apply a generous amount of transmission fluid
to the piston cavity prior to final assembly.

o. Inspecting Swaged, Interference-Fit Parts.


Replace the assembly if there is evidence of looseness.

3. Assemble clutch plates so that the cone of each


plate faces the same direction as the cone of
the adjacent plates.

p. Inspecting Balls in Clutch Housings. Inspect all


balls in rotating clutch housings for free movement.
Any restriction could prevent the ball from seating
during clutch application. Inspect staking that retains
the balls.

b. Parts Lubrication. Lubricate all moving parts


with transmission fluid during final assembly. The
lubricant helps protect the friction-faced surfaces and
ferrous metals until the unit is in service.

HT 700 SERIES TRANSMISSIONS (HYDRAULIC CONTROLS)


c. Threaded Plugs, Hydraulic Fittings
1. New precoated plugs. New plugs precoated
with Teflon do not need preparation for assembly.
2. Reused or uncoated plugs, hydraulic fittings.
Prepare the threads with a small amount of
nonhardening sealer, such as Loctite Pipe
Sealant with Teflon, or equivalent. Do not use
Teflon tape.

CAUTION:
Inaccurate torque can cause leakage and cracked
housings. Tighten all pipe plugs to the torque
specified in the assembly procedure and on the
exploded views.
d. Grease Used for Assembly. Use oil-soluble
grease with a low melting point (petrolatum) to temporarily retain parts, butt-joint sealrings, scarf-cut sealrings, and hook-type sealrings during assembly with
mating parts.

CAUTION:
Do not use oil-soluble grease to retain cork gaskets.
e. Sealing Compounds, Nonsoluble Greases. Do
not use gasket-type sealing compounds, fibrous
greases, or nonsoluble, vegetable-base cooking compounds any place inside the transmission. Do not use
them any place where they could be flushed into the
transmission hydraulic system. However, if adhesives
or sealers are required for the oil pan gasket, they may
be applied on the pan mounting flange, but only in the
area outside of the flange bead.
f. Lip-Type Seals
1. When replacing lip-type seals, ensure the
spring-loaded lip side is toward the fluid to be
sealed (toward the inside of the unit). Coat the
inside of the seal with high temperature grease
(MIL-G-3545A or equivalent) to protect it during shaft installation and to provide lubrication
during initial operation.
2. Dry sealing compound. The circumference of
some seals are precoated with a dry sealant.
The sealant is usually colored for easy identifi414

cation. The precoated seals do not require any


additional sealant before installation.
3. Nonhardening sealing compound. The circumference of some seals is not precoated with a
dry sealant. A nonhardening sealant should be
applied to the circumference of these seals before installation.
g. Butt-Joint Sealrings
1. Butt-joint sealrings require special handling
during assembly. The sealrings contain materials that absorb moisture from the atmosphere
and expand the sealring. The sealrings are
sealed in air-tight packages and should not be
opened until installation into the transmission.
Check the end clearance to ensure that the sealring has not been expanded before installing
the sealring.

CAUTION:
If humidity is allowed to penetrate and expand
the butt-joint sealring, the sealring can be damaged during installation. A damaged sealring
leaks fluid from the clutch piston cavity and
causes clutch slippage. Do not open the sealed
package until sealring is ready for installation.
2. Remove the sealring from its sealed package
and place it in position inside the bore that it
will be sealing.
3. Check the end clearance of the sealring using a
feeler gauge. The end clearance must not be
less than 0.010 inch (0.25 mm).
4. Bake the sealring in an oven at 200300F (90
to 150C) for 24 hours or install a new sealring
if the end clearance is less than 0.010 inch
(0.25 mm). Repeat Steps (2) and (3) to ensure
that the end clearance is correct.
5. Pack the sealring and its groove with a liberal
amount of oil-soluble grease.
6. Roll up the sealring to about half its free diameter and hold it for about 10 seconds. Being
careful not to spread the sealring more than
necessary, slide it onto the hub. Place one end
of the sealring into the groove and gradually
work the seal into the groove.
h. Interference-Fit Parts. Assembly of interference-fit parts may be accomplished by heating and

chilling the respective parts. The female part can be
heated in an oven or oil bath to 300F (150C). The
male part can be chilled in dry ice. Either one or both
parts may require this thermal process. However, if the
chill process is used for a ferrous alloy part, coat the
components with transmission fluid to inhibit rust due
to frost and moisture.

NOTE:
Position jack or hoist sling to coincide with the
transmission center of gravity, as follows (measured
rearward from front mounting of transmission to
engine):
HT 740D 13.5 inch (343 mm)

i. Sleeve-Type Bearings. The use of a locking compound (Loctite Sleeve Retainer 601 or equivalent) is
recommended to retain bushings and sleeve-type bearings that have press-fit tolerances.

HT 750CR 15.5 inch (394 mm)


HT 754CR 15.5 inch (394 mm)
HT 750DR 15.6 inch (396 mm)

j. Bearings (Ball or Roller)

HT 750DR DB 23.5 inch (596 mm)

1. Heat the bearing to 200F (90C) on an electric


hot plate or in an oil bath when installing a
bearing on a shaft. Bearings must be heated
long enough for sufficient expansion. Heating
time is determined by the size of the bearing.
Forty-five minutes is sufficient for the largest
bearing in an Allison transmission. Use the
proper size installation sleeve and a press to
seat the bearing.
2. If a bearing must be removed or installed without a sleeve, be careful to drive or press only
on the race adjacent to the mounting surface. If
a press is not available, seat the bearing with a
drift and a hammer, driving against the supported race.

REMOVING (OR INSTALLING)


TRANSMISSION

a. Drain Fluid. Drain the fluid from the transmission before removal from the vehicle (Paragraph 37).
For better drainage, the transmission should be warm
and allowed to drain overnight. Since applications differ, consult the vehicle service manual for specific
instructions for transmission removal and installation.

c. Clean Transmission. Clean the exterior of the


transmission. Steam cleaning should be followed
immediately by disassembly, because condensation
allowed to remain in the transmission could cause rust.
d. Reconnect at Installation. At installation, all
items should be reconnected. A transmission jack is
convenient to raise the transmission into its mounting
position. The transmission should be filled with fluid
(Paragraph 37) and road tested after installation.

48.

WEAR LIMITS

Refer to Section 8 for general and specific information


covering parts fits, clearances, and wear limits.

49.

SPRING SPECIFICATIONS

Refer to Table 82, Spring Data for spring identification and specifications.

410. TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS


b. Check Linkages and Lines. Check that all linkages, controls, cooler lines, modulator actuator cable,
temperature connection, input and output couplings,
and mounting bolts are disconnected before transmission removal (also, oil fill tube and other equipment
such as attached parking brake handle, etc.). Oil lines
should be carefully placed out of the way of damage
and all openings covered to keep out dirt.

Assembly procedures in Sections 6 and 7 specify the


torque requirements for all bolts and nuts. Torque values are also presented on the foldout illustrations at
the back of this manual. Torque values specified are
for dry assembly, except when otherwise noted. Bolts
and washers should be washed and dried before
assembly.

damage, or if the lockup feed sealring bore shows


signs of damage, proceed with Step (2).
Otherwise, skip Step (2) and proceed with Step (3).

2. Replace and machine the ground sleeve per


Figures 626 or 627, depending on transmission options.
3. Examine the front support for the ground
sleeve vent hole shown in View B-B of Figure
629.
NOTE:
The vent hole allows a portion of the converter
fluid to bypass the converter inlet. During low
speed operation or converter stall operation,
localized heating of the torque converter fluid can
occur as a result of the lack of circulation of the
fluid within the torque converter. Typical
indication of such a condition is a flywheel that has
turned blue in appearance.
The converter ground sleeve vent hole has been
eliminated on some specific A/N transmissions and
service parts in the HT 700 series. Transmissions
manufactured prior to the release of the nonvented ground sleeve may be reworked by
installing a plug in the vent hole.
If the vent hole exists, proceed with Step (4).
If the vent hole does not exist, skip Steps (4)
through (5) and proceed with Step (6).
4. Machine pipe plug P/N 444697 as shown in
Figure 628.
5. Tap the ground sleeve, install plug and stake in
two places as shown in Figure 629.

2. Heat PTO gear 9 in an oven or an oil bath to
350375F (177191C).
3. Carefully install the PTO gear onto the forward-clutch housing (chamfer end first), until
the snapring expands into the PTO gear
groove. Make sure the snapring is expanded
and free in the internal groove of the gear before the gear cools. Failure to obtain this condition can result in difficulty during subsequent
removal.
4. Position the forward-clutch housing, turbine
shaft upward. Apply Loctite 40 Retaining
Compound (or equivalent) onto the collar of
the collector ring. Install the collector ring
(Figure 650). Use installer J 24200-2 to drive
the collector ring onto the clutch housing (Figure 650). Use light hammer blows, and work
around the entire installer circumference.
5. Using staking tool J 24200-1, bend the edge of
the ring into the groove in the clutch housing
(Figure 651). Check the four steel balls in the
housing (Figure 652). Make sure they are securely staked in the housing and are free to
move without restriction.

7. Install PTO gear snapring 8 (Foldout 13,B)


into its groove on the OD of the forward clutch
housing.
8. Install PTO gear 9, chamfered ends of the internal splines first, onto the forward-clutch
housing. The chamfered ends of the splines
should slide over the snapring until the
snapring engages and expands into the groove
in the PTO gear.

NOTE:
Forward-clutch pistons with identification marks

X, Y, and Z have the same thicknesses as pistons


marked A, B, and C, respectively, but are stronger
because their inner walls are not machined.
Starting with S/N 72371 (approximately), HT 700
Series transmissions have forward-clutch housings
without an inner sealring groove and use the
pistons marked X, Y, and Z. Transmissions before
S/N 72371 have forward-clutch housings with an
inner sealring groove and used the pistons marked
A, B, and C. Always discard the seal inside the
forward clutch housing and be sure to replace
pistons with same alphabetic marking.
For HT 750DRD transmissions, use only pistons

NOTE:
Steps (6) through (8) apply to earlier models.
6. If collector ring 6 was removed, replace it with
a new ring. Refer to Steps (4) and (5).

marked X, Y, or Z. Rework the forward-clutch


housing for units prior to S/N 72371 per Paragraph
613d to accommodate these pistons.

CAUTION:
If the forward-clutch housing is replaced, selection of a proper piston (A, B, C, X, Y, or Z) is imperative before sealring installation.

grooves on the center support hub. Insert, do
not force, gauge J 29198-3 into a groove on the
support hub. Rotate the gauge 360 degrees
around the hub. If the gauge does not rotate
freely, the support is damaged and should be
replaced.
NOTE:
A damaged or worn center support hub can be salvaged with guidance from the instructions on the instruction sheet in the Sleeve and Pin Kit. The kit
contains one unfinished center support sleeve, one
sleeve retainer pin, and one machining and installation instruction sheet. Refer to Parts Catalog
PC1268EN for the kit part number.

b. Assembly (Foldout 14,B)

bushing, notched edge upward, into the hub
bore. Align the notch within 10 degrees of the
strut center line shown in Figure 665. Using
installer J 28525-2, press the bushing into the
support housing. To ensure a satisfactory assembly, check to ensure that a press force of
more than 500 lbs (2.224 kN) is used to install
the bushing (Figure 665). Using staking tool
J 28525-1, stake the bushing into the oil port in
this support bore.
NOTE:
Force the pistons to the bottom of their cavities during installation of the self-locking retainer rings 6
and 23. This will ensure proper clutch clearance.
2. Temporarily place piston 9 in the front piston
cavity of center support housing 17. Install
twenty springs 8 into the pockets of the piston.
Align spring retainer 7 on the four ejector pin
bosses of the piston. Compress the springs by

edge of the center support when the retainer
rings are installed (Figure 666). Install a new
self-locking retainer ring 6 on the ejector pins
of each piston, using installer J 24453. Remove
the piston from the center support.

8. If bushing replacement is necessary, collapse


bushing 16 at its seam using a small half-round
chisel. Be careful not to damage the support
bore.

619. PLANETARY CARRIER


ASSEMBLIES
NOTE:
The disassembly and assembly procedures for all
planetary carrier assemblies differ only in the proper tool selection for the specific application. Table
61 and Figure 673 provide the tool number required for a specific application and identifies the
carrier involved (front, center, rear, and low). If the
tool is common to all of the planetary carrier assemblies, its number will be listed in the text. If the tool
is not common, the text will refer to the chart. For
planetary carrier exploded views, refer to the Foldouts at the back of this manual.
a. Assembly Inspection
1. Visually inspect planetary carrier assembly for
evidence of excessive wear, overheat indication, damage, or heavy metal contamination.
2. Check end play of planetary carrier pinions.
With washer held flat, insert feeler gauge between carrier and thrust washer. End play must
be within 0.0080.031 inch (0.200.797 mm).

NOTE:
Do not disassemble carrier assembly unless parts
replacement is necessary. Planetary pinions are a
matched set. If one pinion requires replacement, the
remaining pinions must also be replaced. Also, new
needle roller bearings, thrust washers, and spindles
should be installed any time a planetary carrier assembly is being rebuilt.

b. Removal, Installation of Pinion Components

NOTE:
The hydraulic press, used with J 25587-01 Planetary Rebuilding Set, should have a ten ton
(88.94 kN) capacity, an adjustable press bed of 25
inch (635 mm) minimum opening and a pressure
gauge to assist in determining proper installation
and staking of the pinion pins.

1. Using a drill that is slightly smaller than the


pinion pin diameter, drill into the staked ends
of the pins (only one end required). Do not
drill into the carrier. The rear ends of all pinion
pins except those in the center carrier assembly
will be drilled. Drill the front ends of the center
assembly pins.
2. Place press fixture J 25587-01 in a hydraulic
press. Select the proper spacer and adapter (if
required) from the tool chart (see Table 61
and Figure 673). Position these parts (if
used) to support the carrier assembly (drilled
ends of pinion pins upward) solidly on the
press fixture.
3. Install the proper pin remover (see Table 61
and Figure 673) into the ram of the press fixture. Press the pinion pins from the carrier assembly.
4. Remove the pinion groups, consisting of pinions, bearings, and thrust washers. Refer to
Paragraphs 619c or 619d if the bushing in a
carrier assembly must be replaced.

REBUILD OF SUBASSEMBLIES
NOTE:
Lubricate the needle rollers and the thrust washers

before assembling the pinion groups.


For center planetary carrier assemblies, the eight

bronze and eight steel thrust washers may be


replaced by eight SP-21 washers.
5. Assemble all of the pinion groups for the carrier assembly. Each group is assembled by inserting the proper loading pin into the bore of
the pinion, installing the needle roller bearings
around the loading pin, installing a steel thrust
washer at each end of the pinion, and installing
a bronze thrust washer onto each steel thrust
washer.
6. Position the carrier assembly rear end upward
(except the center carrier). Install all pinion
groups into the planetary carrier, aligning the
loading pins (see Table 61 and Figure 673)
with the pin bores in the carrier.
7. Install the proper pinion guide pins (see Table
61 and Figure 673) (larger diameters first)
into the pinion pin bores. Push the guide pins
through the carrier until the loading pins drop
out.
8. Position the carrier assembly on the press fixture using the proper pin remover and installer
adapter (if required).

NOTE:
Pin installers are shaped to avoid interference with
bosses on the carrier assemblies. They must be installed in the ram so that the cutaway portion of the
installer will clear the bosses when the pinion pin is
pressed in.
9. Select the proper pin installer and install it into
the press fixture ram.

CAUTION:
Do not put pressure on the carrier as distortion
will damage the carrier.
10. Place a pinion pin onto the pilot end of the pin
guide located below the press fixture ram.
Press the pinion pin into the carrier until the installer contacts the carrier.
11. Install the remaining pinion pins as instructed
in Step (10).
12. Remove the carrier assembly from the press fixture. Install staking tool holder J 25587-17 into
the opening of the press fixture bed. Install a
staking tool into the holder. Install another staking tool into the press fixture ram. Lubricate
both ends of the pinion pins with oil-soluble
grease.
13. Position the carrier assembly, rear end upward
(except the center carrier), on the press fixture.
Use the proper support block to level the carrier while the lower staking tool is supporting
the lower end of one pinion pin.

0.120 in. (3.048 mm) TYPICAL

NOTE:
Swaging pressure is approximately three tons
(26.69 kN) for each pinion pin. While applying pressure, rotate pinions and feel for reduction of end
play. The pinions must rotate freely and have
0.008 inch (.203 mm) minimum end play after staking the pins.
90

Swage both ends of six


pins securely, as shown.
Gears must turn freely.
V02967

Figure 674. Front Planetary Carrier Assembly


Staking Location

14. Apply sufficient pressure to the press fixture


ram to firmly stake the ends of the pinion pins
against the metal of the carrier. Figure 674 illustrates a typical swage pattern.
15. Stake the remaining pinion pin ends as instructed in Step (14).

warranted.

2. Place the front carrier on a work table (rear


downward).

6. Using a lathe with a four jaw chuck, mount the


carrier with surface A facing the chuck. Insert
the six fabricated dummy pins (Figure 676)
into the pinion pin holes. Adjust the chuck by
centering the carrier based on surface B and
the runout of the dummy pins.

3. Press the bushing from the carrier. Do not


scratch or score the bushing bore. (Refer to

CLEARANCES
a. Two Methods
1. Either of two methods may be used to establish
the proper clutch clearances (clutches released). One method is by direct measurement.
This method is incorporated in each clutch assembly procedure relating either to subassembly rebuild or transmission assembly (see Paragraphs 613, 614, 73, 74, and 711). The
second method is by stack dimension computation, which may be more convenient when
quantity or assembly-line overhaul practices
are used.

CAUTION:
The valve body assembly contains a number of
springs, some of which are similar and can be
mistakenly interchanged. Also, springs vary in
valve bodies used on different models. If the
springs are not reinstalled in the same locations
from which removed, erratic shift patterns may
occur. For these reasons, it is recommended that
each spring, at removal, be tagged with its item
number in Foldout 20,B and utilize valve body

NOTE:

Copyright 1997 General Motors Corp.

REBUILD OF SUBASSEMBLIES
1. Check ball #8 (14 inch ball) is used in the DR
with all range lockup, and some early model
CRs. It is located in a line between the third-,
fourth-, and fifth-clutch feed and the forward
regulator line. It allows flow to the forward
regulator, but checks flow to the clutch application line. In the DR, forward regulator pressure
comes from two separate sources. Either
source or both will reduce main pressure. The
first source is lockup clutch. The second source
is third-, fourth-, or fifth-clutch apply pressure.
2. During first and second range, main pressure is
reduced, by lockup pressure, only during
lockup operation. In first or second, the third-,
fourth-, and fifth-clutch apply line is exhausted
at the upper stem of the 23 relay valve. Check
ball #8 is seated when the lockup-clutch comes
on and prevents the loss of knock-down pressure. During third, fourth, and fifth range operation, clutch pressure unseats ball #8 and
reduces main pressure by exerting a downward
force on the main pressure regulator valve.
During third, fourth, and fifth range operation, lockup pressure or the lack of it during
converter phase will not affect main pressure,
remembering that either one or both signals
(345 clutch pressure or lockup apply pressure) will serve to reduce main pressure. Main
pressure will be high in first range and second
range operation, but reduced by forward
regulator pressure in all other forward ranges
to prevent undue wear to the lockup-clutch reaction plate and release horsepower to the
wheels.
3. Check ball #9 (14 inch ball) is used only in CR
models and is located in the modulator line
feeding to the lockup valve and where 345
signal tube taps into the modulator line. The
function of the check ball is to seat on 345
signal feed line when in first and second ranges
(23 relay valve up), and allow modulated
lockup in first and second ranges. When (drive
4 line) 345 signal feed line is charged, the
check ball blocks the modulator feed to the
lockup valve and allows main pressure (clutch
feed pressure) to feed directly to lockup valve;
therefore, maintaining lockup from third range
through fifth range.

4. Check ball #10 (14 inch ball) is used only on


DR models with all range lockup. Its location
in all range lockup models is shown in Foldout
10 schematic. The function of ball #10 in the
lockup cutoff models is to close the exhaust to
first or third lockup feed when line is not in
use. Example: When first lockup feed line is
charged, the check ball will block exhaust to
third lockup feed line and vice/versa.
NOTE:
Check ball #10 is used for a separate purpose when
a split shaft PTO is used to drive water pumps (fire
truck application). In models modified for high
range lockup for split shaft PTO operation prior to
S/N 10300, the function of the ball is to allow main
pressure to feed the fourth clutch when solenoids
are energized and to prevent the exhaust of fourthclutch pressure when in reverse range. Without the
check ball, the fourth-clutch pressure in forward or
reverse will feed back to the normally open solenoid
valve and exhaust.
5. Check ball #11 (516 inch ball) is located between governor pressure line to lockup (pitot
pressure) and forward regulator line. Its function is to prevent lockup in reverse. Forward
regulator line is not charged in reverse range;
therefore, all governor pressure (pitot pressure)
is exhausted through this line. Without governor pressure (pitot pressure) lockup will not
occur.
6. Check ball #12 (14 inch ball) is located in the
third-clutch pressure line next to the 34 relay
valve in the four speed, or 45 relay valve in
the five speed. Check ball #12 restricts the feed
to third clutch for clutch overlap and allows
full exhaust.
7. Check ball #13 (14 inch ball) is located in the
second-clutch pressure line next to the 23 relay valve in the four speed, or 34 relay valve
in the five speed. Its function is to restrict the
feed to second clutch for clutch overlap and allows full exhaust.

CLUTCH CLEARANCES

NOTE:
The clearances for low, first, second, and third
clutches are established by direct measurement in
this section (Paragraphs 73, 74, and 711). Refer
to Paragraph 629 for stack dimension computation of clutch clearances.
a. Preparation Procedure. Preparations are required to establish the proper clearance for each clutch
pack.
b. Determine Plate Thickness
1. Determine the original thickness of each external-tanged plate with a micrometer. Because
the tangs of the clutch plate are not subject to
face wear, the micrometer reading at a tang
will be the original thickness. Each clutch pack
must contain one thick plate next to the piston,
and a basic number of thick and thin plates.
The combination of thick and thin plates is selected to meet the prescribed clearance with

2. Determine the wear on both internal and external plates (refer to wear limits in Section 8).
Replace worn plates. Thicknesses of externaltanged plates in the low, first, second, and third
clutches in earlier models may be different
from the thicknesses of corresponding plates in
later models. Wear limits stated in Section 8
are for plates presently supplied.
3. If it is necessary to replace an external-tanged
plate, be sure the plate thickness is identical
to the original equipment. Refer to Paragraph
72b Steps (1) and (2). Keep the clutch packs
separated (do not mix the plates of one clutch
with the plates of another).
NOTE:
For HT 740 and HT 747 models, proceed with Paragraph 73. For HT 750, HT 754CR, HT 750DR,
and HT 750DR DB models, proceed with Paragraph 74.
4. Clearance for all clutch plates is established
during assembly procedure. Clearances for the
forward and fourth clutches are established
during rebuild of those subassemblies in Section 6.

NOTE:
If the stack method of selecting the second-clutch
components is used, disregard Step (1).
1. Install thirteen second-clutch plates, beginning
with an external-tanged plate. Alternately install seven external-tanged plates and six internal-splined plates (Figure 73).
2. Retain the plates with the selective snapring
(Figure 74). The snapring should be color
coded white and measure 0.1550.157 inch
(3.943.99 mm).
3. Remove the third-clutch piston from the center
support assembly (if not previously removed).
Install bracket J 24195 into the recess between
the sealrings on the center support hub (Figure

of the snapring is at the top of the housing.
10. Remove compressor J 24208-3 and sleeve
J 24208-2.
c. Second-Clutch Clearance
NOTE:
Two methods of checking clutch plate clearance
have been established. One method is by direct measurement as outlined in Step (6). The alternate
method is by stack dimension computation outlined
in Paragraph 629. If the stack method is used to select second-clutch components, disregard Steps (1)
through (6).
1. Invert the transmission housing (rear cover
upward).

ASSEMBLY OF TRANSMISSION
2. Remove the six bolts and washers that temporarily retained the rear cover to the transmission housing, then remove the rear cover and
gasket.
3. Remove the thirteen low-clutch plates from the
adapter housing (Figure 718). Since these
plates are preset for the low-clutch clearance,
they should be maintained as a pack so they
cannot be intermixed with other plates.
4. Remove the adapter housing and gasket from
the transmission housing (Figure 727).
5. Remove the thirteen first-clutch plates from the
transmission housing. These plates were preset
for proper clearance and should be maintained

plate clearance (Figure 77). It is
recommended the gauge be placed between the
transmission housing and the first steel plate.
Any dimension within 0.0600.110 inch
(1.522.79 mm) is satisfactory. Replace worn
plates with new plates to establish the desired
clearance. Recheck the clearance.

4. Install the rear planetary ring gear (Figure 712)


(longer splines first).
5. Install the three remaining clutch plates as
shown in Figure 712. Be sure a thick plate is
placed next to the piston (refer to Paragraph

b. Center Support

CAUTION:
Improper installation of sealrings may cause
transmission failure. Refer to Paragraph 46g
for proper installation procedure.
1. Install the third-clutch piston assembly into the
center support. The lips of the sealrings must
be toward the cavity in the center support.
2. Install the sealrings onto the center support
hub. Attach lifting bracket J 24195 and install
the center support assembly. Align the tapped
hole in the support to the hole in the transmission housing (Figure 724).
3. Install the special 38-16 x 3 inch bolt and plain
washer finger tight then remove the lifting
bracket.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to compress the center support
to install the selective snapring.
4. Install the selective snapring (Paragraph 74b(7))
that retains the center support (Figure 725). Be
sure the gap of the snapring is at the top of the
transmission housing.

711. INSTALLING THIRD, FOURTH,


FORWARD CLUTCHES
NOTE:
Two methods of checking clutch plate clearance
have been established. One method is by direct measurement as outlined in Steps (4) and (5). The alternate method is by stack dimension computation
outlined in Paragraph 629. If the stack method is
used, disregard Steps (4) and (5).
a. Third Clutch, Fourth Clutch
1. Prior to the installation of the fourth-clutch assembly, be sure the bearing races at both the
front and back are in place (Figure 656 and 6
57). Check also that the sealrings, bearing, and
race are in place on the center support. Be sure
the inner lube-direction lip of the race on the
center support is 0.233 inch (5.9 mm). Install
the fourth-clutch assembly.
2. When installing the third-clutch plates (Figure
732), the external-tanged clutch plates must
have a definite tang-to-slot relation. The tangs
must be installed into the shorter, narrower
slots (the wider slots are longer and extend to
the second-clutch plates). Figure 732 illustrates the proper tang-slot relationship (note
the wider space between two of the tangs and
its location).

ASSEMBLY OF TRANSMISSION
CAUTION:
Be sure the clutch plate next to the piston is a
thick plate.
3. Install eight third-clutch plates as follows (Figure 732). Beginning with a thick externaltanged plate, alternately install four externaltanged plates and four internal-splined plates.
Refer to Paragraph 72b(1).
4. Install backplate 2 (Foldout 14,B) and white
color coded snapring 1. Be sure the gap of the
snapring is at the top of the transmission housing.
5. Check the third-clutch clearance by inserting a
feeler gauge between the snapring and the
backplate of the third clutch (Figure 733).
Any dimension between 0.0400.064 inch
(1.021.63 mm) is satisfactory. Replace worn
plates with new plates to establish the desired
clearance. If the assembly is satisfactory, continue assembly with Paragraph 711b.
6. If the clearance is not satisfactory, replace the
plates in the third clutch as required to obtain a
satisfactory clearance. Refer to Paragraph 72b
and wear limits in Section 8.

b. Forward Clutch

WARNING!
Be sure the forward-clutch hub and the fourthclutch driving hub are installed into the forwardclutch assembly as shown in Figure 655. If these
two hubs are installed into the fourth-clutch
housing by mistake, the transmission will operate in reverse when the driver selects any forward range.
1. Prior to installing the forward-clutch assembly,
make sure the thrust bearing race and thrust
bearing have been installed at the rear of the
clutch assembly. Install thrust race 2 (Foldout
13,B) (cup side first) onto the forward-clutch
housing. Install needle bearing 24 (Foldout
13,A) onto race 23 (refer to Foldout 1). Retain
the bearing and race with oil-soluble grease.
2. Install alignment fixture J 24221. Engage the
fourth-clutch plates by applying air pressure to
the fourth-clutch piston (Figure 734). If all
plates do not engage tool J 24221, the fixture
will rise slightly when air pressure is applied.
3. Hold air pressure in the clutch and remove the
fixture. Install lifting fixture J 33079-1 to the
turbine shaft (Figure 735) and lift into installation position. Continue holding air pressure
and install the forward-clutch assembly (with
race and bearing).
4. Release the air pressure when the forward
clutch is fully seated (forward clutch will fall
slightly when air is released if the clutch is not
fully seated).

NOTE:
A preset valve body torque wrench J 29612 may be

used to tighten all valve body bolts to their final


torque.
Proper bolt torque and bolt torque sequence must

be followed to maintain proper valve body operation. The bolt torque sequence has a proven, direct
affect on transmission shifts.

1. Install two guide screws J 243153 into opposite holes in the transmission housing (Figure
751).
2. Install the control valve assembly (as assembled in Paragraph 630), using the guide
screws as support, onto the transmission. The

On transmissions with 4.5 inch oil pans, the oil return baffles prior to S/N 2510180367 had slots near
their tops which allow oil spray on the dipsticks.
Transmissions with right hand dipstick tubes are
primarily affected by the spray. This spray has been
observed to alter dipstick readings, complicating
proper oil level calibrations. To eliminate the spray,
replace the slotted oil return baffle with a new baffle.

ASSEMBLY OF TRANSMISSION
CAUTION:

NOTE:

The transmission and PTO can be damaged if the


PTO is installed with its driven-gear to the front
of the PTO drive-gear.

When instructions are not immediately available


from the vehicle manufacturer, the following method is suggested for determining the proper backlash.

5. If the PTO has a manual disconnect, be sure


that the disconnect lever is in the disconnect
position. When the PTO is installed on the
mounting pad, the PTO driven-gear must be to
the rear of the PTO drive-gear in the transmission.

1. Hold gear 1 (Figure 768) (transmission drivegear) by holding the input flywheel.
2. Move gear 2 (transmission driven-gear) in both
directions. Measure the backlash with an indicator as shown in Figure 768. This is quantity A.

6. Install the PTO on the mounting pad.


7. Connect the lubrication line (if used).

3. Hold the output shaft of PTO 4 (Figure 769)


stationary.

c. Determining Engine-Driven PTO Backlash

CAUTION:
The backlash in power takeoff (PTO) installations should be carefully checked. Excessive or
insufficient backlash can result in damage to the
transmission and the PTO assembly.

;;

4. Move gear 3 (PTO drive-gear) in both directions. Measure the backlash with an indicator
as shown in Figure 769. This is quantity B.
5. Hold gear 1 (transmission drive-gear) by holding the input flywheel.

Radius R is equivalent to the radius of the PTO
input drive-gear 3. Take the backlash measurement at this point on the strap.
8. Move the output shaft in both directions and
measure the backlash using an indicator as
shown in Figures 768 and 769. This is quantity C.
9. Add quantity A to quantity B, then subtract this
sum from quantity C. The remainder will be
the backlash between the transmission gear
and the PTO gear. Call this quantity D.

2. Speeds, type of duty, power requirements, and


other factors must be considered when adding a
PTO to a transmission. If the job requirements
of the PTO cannot be fully met by the transmission, the installation will not be satisfactory.
Also, the transmission could be damaged.
3. Follow all of the recommendations in Paragraph 723a.

11. Continue PTO installation with instruction


from Paragraph 723b Steps (4) through (7).

4. If a lubrication source is required, the return line


from cooler-to-transmission may be tapped.
Provide a 0.060 to 0.110 inch (1.522.79 mm)
restriction in the lubrication circuit for enginedriven PTO, or 0.032 inch (0.81 mm) restriction
for turbine-driven PTO. This restriction is usually provided in the PTO.

Section 8 WEAR LIMITS AND SPRING DATA


81.

WEAR LIMITS DATA

a. Maximum Variations. Wear limits information


in this section shows the maximum wear at which
components are expected to function satisfactorily.
Table 81 lists the wear limits data and is referenced to
the exploded views (Foldouts 9 through 23) in the
back of this manual.

f. Hook-Type Sealrings. Sides of the sealring


should be smooth with maximum wear of 0.005 inch
(0.13 mm). The sides of the groove into which the
sealrings fit should be smooth within 50 microinches
(1.27 micrometers) and square with the axis of rotation within 0.002 inch (0.05 mm). A new sealring
should be installed if grooves are reworked or if there
is wear on the sealring outside diameter.

b. Cleaning, Inspection. Parts must be clean to permit effective inspection for wear or damage. Refer to
Section 4.

g. Oil Seals. Seals should be replaced if they show


signs of excessive hardening, scoring, cracking or
other indications of deterioration. (See Section 4.)

c. Bearings, Bearing Journals, Bores. The application of bearings to any product is based on the recommendations of the bearing manufacturer and therefore, no diametric dimensional deviation should be
permitted in the bearing or mated parts. Bearings
should be carefully checked for signs of distress
before reinstalling in the transmission.
d. Gears. Gears should be inspected for load pattern
and signs of distress. Any distress indicates a possible
future failure, and the reuse of the gears is the decision
of the individual customer, based on experience. Backlash cannot be used to establish critical wear of a gear.
The backlash tolerances are of such nature that a gear
usually pits, scuffs, scores, or galls long before the
gear wear becomes critical.
e. Splines. Unless severe, spline wear is not considered detrimental except where it affects tightness of an
assembly such as driveline flanges. Backlash cannot
be used to establish critical wear because both mating
parts must be concentrically located to obtain accurate
measurement of backlash.

82.

SPRING DATA

a. Springs must be clean to permit effective inspection. Springs should be replaced if there are signs of
overheating, wear due to rubbing adjacent parts, or
permanent set. Discard springs which do not meet the
load height specifications in the spring chart.
b. Inspection criteria (load vs. height) and identification characteristics of the springs are presented in
Table 82. The spring data are keyed to the exploded
views (Foldouts 9 through 23) in the back of this manual.
NOTE:
When more than one spring part number is listed
for the same location, refer to the HT 700 Series
Parts Catalog PC1268EN to determine which
spring is used in your specific assembly number.

Section 9 CUSTOMER SERVICE


91.

OWNER ASSISTANCE

The satisfaction and good will of the owners of Allison


transmissions are of primary concern to Allison Transmission Division (ATD), its distributors, and their
dealers.
As an owner of an Allison transmission, you have service locations throughout the world that are eager to
meet your parts and service needs with:
Expert service by trained personnel
Emergency service 24 hours a day in many

areas

Step Two When it appears the problem cannot be


resolved readily at the distributor level without additional assistance, contact the Allison Transmission Regional Office responsible for the local distributor. You
will be assisted by a member of the Regional Service
Managers staff, depending on the nature of your problem.
For prompt assistance, please have the following information available.
Name and location of authorized distributor

or dealer
Type and make of equipment

Complete parts support

Transmission model number, serial number,

Sales teams to help determine your power

requirements
Product information and literature

Normally, any situation that arises in connection with


the sale, operation, or service of your transmission will
be handled by the distributor or dealer in your area
(check the telephone directory for the Allison Transmission service outlet nearest you).
Refer to the Sales and Service Directory SA2229EN
for the current listing of Allison Transmission authorized distributor and service dealers.
We recognize, however, that despite the best intentions
of everyone concerned, misunderstandings may occur.
To further assure your complete satisfaction, we have
developed the following three-step procedure to be
followed in the event a problem has not been handled
satisfactorily.
Step One Discuss the problem with a member of
management from the distributorship or dealership.
Frequently, complaints are the result of a breakdown
in communication and can quickly be resolved by a
member of management. If you have already discussed the problem with the Sales or Service Manager,
contact the General Manager. All ATD dealers are associated with an ATD distributor. If the problem originates with a dealer, explain the matter to a management member of the distributorship with whom the
dealer has his service agreement. The dealer will provide his ATD distributors name, address, and telephone number on request.

and assembly number (if equipped with


electronic controls, also provide the ECU
assembly number)
Transmission delivery date and accumulat-

ed miles and/or hours of operation


Nature of problem
Chronological summary of units history

Step Three If you contacted a regional office and


you are still not satisfied, present the entire matter to
the Home Office by writing to the following address or
calling the phone number below:
Manager Warranty Administration PF9
Allison Transmission
P.O. Box 894, Indianapolis, Indiana 462060894
Phone: (317) 2423538
The inclusion of all pertinent information will assist
the Home Office in expediting the matter. If an additional review by the Home Office of all the facts involved indicates that some further action can be taken,
the Regional Office will be advised.
When contacting the Regional or Home Office, please
keep in mind that ultimately the problem will likely be
resolved at the distributorship or dealership utilizing
their facilities, equipment, and personnel. Therefore,
it is suggested the above steps be followed in sequence
when experiencing a problem.
Your purchase of an Allison Transmission product is
greatly appreciated, and it is our sincere desire to assure complete satisfaction.
