Hydraulic pressure is applied to the front side of the reverse servo.

• This pressure causes the servo to stroke and apply force to the reverse band.
• This action causes the reverse brake drum to be held.
• The reverse band holds the reverse brake to the case in 1st position and reverse gears.
• This causes the reverse planetary assembly to be held stationary.
