Clutches - Low/Reverse

When hydraulic pressure acts on the low/reverse clutch piston, the low/reverse clutches are pressed tightly together, and the transmission case and the low/reverse clutch inner race are connected. The rotation of the front planet stops when the low/reverse clutch is applied. This brake operates during manual low (first gear) and reverse.
