Massey Ferguson 5465, 5475 robotic mechanical gearbox - Selector rails and forks

MF 5400-5600 Series Tractors Repair Operations

To carry out this adjustment, the primary and secondary shafts must be correctly supported and shimmed in the housing.

(L52) Range 1 control solenoid valve, (L53) Range 2 control solenoid valve, (L54) Range 3 control solenoid valve, (L55) Range 4 control solenoid valve, (L56) Range 1 switch, (L57) Range 2 switch, (L58) Range 3 switch, (L59) Range 4 switch

Install solenoid valves (L52), (L53), (L54) and (L55). Fashion a union to supply the control circuit with compressed air at a maximum pressure of 4 bar. Connect the selector rail adjustment tool.

The selector rail adjustment tool is used to supply the solenoid valves (L52), (L53), (L54) and (L55) of the gearbox, in order to carry out various adjustments.

The range switches (L56), (L57), (L58) and (L59) can be checked once the selector rails have been adjusted and the switches fitted. Each LED on the tool corresponds to a switch.

The switches on the tool supply the solenoid valves of the Massey Ferguson 5465, 5475 tractor gearbox. They work independently of the LED lighting. The range switches light the LEDs of the tool. When a range is engaged, the corresponding LED for the range is lit.

The switches are normally closed. When a range is engaged, they open the circuit and the implement reverses the signal to light the LEDs. When the switches are not connected, the four LEDs on the tool are thus lit.

Connect the tool to a 12V, 4A power supply.

Connect the connectors (1) to the solenoid valves and the connectors (2) to the range switches.
Each wire is marked with a number indicating the range concerned.

Switches, LEDs/connectors

Switch 1 - Solenoid valve L52, Switch 2 - Solenoid valve L53, Switch 3 - Solenoid valve L54, Switch 4 - Solenoid valve L55, Switch R - Solenoid valves L52, L53, L54 and L55, LED 1 - Switch L56, LED 2 - Switch L57, LED 3 - Switch L58, LED 4 - Switch L59

Supplying the MF 5465, 5475 tractor gearbox solenoid valves Activate switches 1, 2, 3 and 4 one by one, in order to supply the solenoid valves required to adjust the selector rails. To return the two selector rails to neutral automatically, use switch R on the implement (4 solenoid valves supplied).

Checking the selector rails before adjustment

Before adjusting the travel of the selector rails, it is important to check that their movement is within the permitted tolerances.

Using a depth gauge and a suitable fixture, check the following dimensions (see the table):

- X1: distance between face F of the housing and the end of the selector rail with the range 1 or 3 engaged,
- Y : distance between face F of the housing and the end of the selector rail in neutral position,
- Z1: distance between face F of the housing and the end of the selector rail with the range 2 or 4 engaged.

X1 20.785 ± 1 21.830 ± 0.8
Y 32.215 ± 1.245 33.213 ± 1.093
Z1 43.625 ± 0.9 44.425 ± 0.8

If the measured dimensions are outside these tolerances, manually turn the gears using the reverse driving pinion, then repeat the measurements. If the dimensions are still incorrect, check that the selector rails and synchronisers have been fitted correctly.

Adjusting the selector rails

Set the rail (98) to neutral. Install the castellated nut without tightening (109).
Engage range 2. (Supply L53). Tighten the nut (109) up against the cover (6). Reposition the selector rail to neutral.
Screw on the nut (109) by two slots and line up the next slot opposite the hole of the locking screw (107).

With paint, mark the position of the nut (109) in relation to the cover (6). The synchroniser may not fully engage when the MF 5465, 5475 gearbox is not running.

If this is the case, position the shaft (121) and reverse transfer pinion (119) and slowly run the gearbox while engaging the range.

Install the castellated nut (108). Screw it on until it is almost touching the nut (109). Ensure the nut (109) stays in its set position and that the paint marks are not removed. Install the plate (111). Install the screws (110) smeared with Loctite 242 or equivalent. Tighten to a torque of 29 - 37 Nm.

Engage range 1. (Supply L52). Unscrew the nut (108) fitted home against the cover (111). Reposition the selector rail to neutral.

Unscrew the nut (108) by two slots and line up the next slot opposite the hole of the locking screw (107). With paint, mark the nut (108) aligned with the mark on the cover (6).

Insert the screw (107) to lock the nuts (108) and (109), aligning the marks made during operations. Check for correct operation. The nuts should effectively act as a stop.

Firmly fit the screw (107), lightly smeared with Loctite 242 or equivalent. Tighten to a torque of 12 - 16 Nm.
Adjusting selector rail (73) (ranges 3 and 4). Repeat operations with the selector rail (73) and nuts (99) and (101).

Adjusting the interlock mechanism

This adjustment must be carried out after setting the MF 5465, 5475 tractor gearbox selector rails.
Screw home the rod (106) in the reverse pitch nut (131).
Using the selector rail adjustment tool, engage a range on a selector rail and leave the other selector rail in neutral.

Unscrew the rod (104) until the lock reaches maximum axial clearance as shown in: J = 0.1 to 0.3 mm. Tighten the locknut (105).

Check - Using the selector rail adjustment tool, engage a range on a selector rail. Try to shift a range on the other selector rail. It should not engage. Repeat the procedure with all the ranges.

Assembling the intermediate speed sensor

Install the sensor (C) lightly smeared with Loctite 577 or equivalent.
