ABSTRACT:
A lockout device is provided for inhibiting the selection of certain gear combinations in range shift type transmission. The lockout device comprises an air cylinder mounted to the transmission housing. The air cylinder includes a rod selectively translatable between a retracted position and an extended position. The rod is normally urged to its retracted position, and extends through an aperture in the housing in its extended position to engage a notch in a selected shift rail. The air cylinder and the high range air line are operably interconnected, whereby a shift to high range simultaneously activates the air cylinder, extending the rod into the recess in the shift rail to thereby selectively limit axial translation of the shift rail. The lockout device is easily removable.
