Abstract
A transmission actuator unit (131) configured by combination of a selecting actuator (133) and a shifting actuator (134) is mounted on an upper surface of a connection box unit (101). A connection box frame (102) is slidably supported along guide rails (20) between a pair of main beams (15a) of a slanting frame (11). By sliding the connection box unit (101), it is possible to adjust a height position of the transmission actuator unit (131) to a height position of a shift lever.
