I built a cut away transmission to show people how a transmission works  and always showed them how the oil level was below 

The main gears and if they don’t turn they don’t bring up the oil.

The black line shows the oil level. By turning the output flange you can see gears sitting still and not pulling up the oil.

 

 



By turning the knob on the clutch disc you can operate the gears.

 

 



You can also shift all the gears while it is turning.

Actually the gears are NOT moving.  Just the mainshaft is turning, in 

unlubricated bearings and syncro bushings.
