Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A final drive assembly for an agricultural tractor has a casing in which are journalled the outer end of a half-shaft and parallel to, the half-shaft, a final drive shaft. The two shafts are driveably interconnected by fixed radio speed reduction gearing lubricated by mineral oil contained in the casing. A multi-disc brake can frictionally interconnect the half-shaft and the casing and is operated, via a linkage by a hydraulic slave cylinder housed within the casing and preferably actuated by mineral oil to avoid contaminating the lubricating oil in the event of any leakage from the cylinder.
