- The sun gear drives the pinion gears to rotate, and the pinion gears drive the ring gear in the opposite direction from the rotational direction of the sun gear.
- The ring gear drives the drive pulley shaft via the forward clutch drum, and the drive pulley shaft drives the driven pulley shaft linked by the steel belt.
- The driven pulley shaft drives the secondary drive gear via the start clutch.
- Power is transmitted to the secondary driven gear and the final drive gear, which in turn drives the final driven gear.
