ABSTRACT:
A transaxle transmission includes a casing with axially aligned output shaft extensions extending through end walls thereof. An input shaft extends through a casing side wall and is generally perpendicular with respect to the output shaft. Selectively actuable change speed gearing is drivingly connected to the output shaft for selectively providing predetermined forward and reverse gear ratios, and a manually actuable element is coupled to the change speed gearing for shifting the same. An intermediate shaft is provided in spaced, parallel relationship with the input shaft and is drivingly connected to the change speed gearing. Second selectively actuable change speed gearing drivingly connects the input shaft to the intermediate shaft to provide high and low speed reduction ratios between the input and intermediate shafts, and another manually actuable element is coupled to the second change speed gearing for shifting the same.
