[C320-list] no forward or reverse

[Barry Fahrer]

Here is a link to a Hurth manual.  It doesn't have a lot in it but it does 
show how the linkage and levers should be adjusted.  It also can teach you 
to say transmission in 3 other languages.
I have the workshop manual which I purchased from Foley engines.  If you are 
going to rebuild the transmission it could be helpful.
