or aluminium, depending on the type of transport for which it will be used.
The clutch casing is made of aluminium, and combined with an aluminium
range housing results in a gearbox with low weight.
The VT2514B is fitted with a new cable link gear-changing mechanism,
resulting in a vibration-free gear lever and distinct gear positions. The gearbox
is also fitted with patented synchronisation, which contributes to low gear-
changing forces and a high level of driver comfort.
The VT2514B has extended oil change intervals for lower operating costs,
and reduced environmental impact. When special oil is used, the maximum
oil and filter change interval is 400 000 km or every third year.

Long service life with efficient pressurised oil system


The oil pump in the gearbox is of the rotor type and is fitted on the rear
end wall of the basic unit. It is driven by a gear via the countershaft.
From the oil pump, the oil is forced through an integrated, metal-free
insert filter of the full-flow type at a readily accessible place on the
rear end wall of the range housing. The oil then continues out to
all the bearings, apart from the rear bearing of the countershaft,
which is lubricated by partial immersion in oil.

fortable operation and a lower noise level in the cab. The gearbox
also has patented synchro-nisation which, with the assistance of
a mechanical servo function, provides extra power at the moment
of synchronisation. The torque that arises when the synchronisation
starts to slow down the rotation is converted to an axial force which
gives the driver servo assistance. This design solution contributes
to low gear-shifting forces and increased driver comfort.
