Manual transmission basic components: input shaft, output shaft, differential, gear sets for each gear, bearings, synchronizer, shift mechanism, shift fork, oil seal, lubricating oil, housing, output flange. Manual transmission is also called mechanical transmission, which means you must manually move the gear lever to change the gear meshing position of the transmission, alter the gear ratio, and achieve the purpose of shifting. Most car manual transmissions are four-speed or five-speed stepped gear transmissions, usually equipped with synchronizers for convenient shifting and low noise. When operating a manual transmission, you must depress the clutch to move the gear lever. Depending on the relative position of the shift handle and the transmission, there are two structural types: direct control type and remote control type.
