🔍 Key Concepts

• SSS (Synchro-Self-Shifting) clutch basic purpose and operation • How an SSS clutch normally engages and disengages (automatic, speed-sensing, via pawls and ratchets) • Difference between a mechanical/manual lockout and normal automatic operation

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: if you want to PREVENT automatic engagement, what physical part of the SSS clutch’s mechanism would you need to control or secure? • Which option describes a direct mechanical action on the clutch itself, rather than just changing operating conditions (like speed or pressure)? • Which choice sounds like a temporary, reversible method a mechanic could use during maintenance or testing to keep the clutch from picking up the load?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options actually describe a mechanical lock or securing method versus a change in operating conditions. • Remember that SSS clutches are designed to engage automatically at a certain speed—calculating that speed does not itself lock anything out. • Consider standard shipboard practice: look for the option that matches a typical, simple, hands-on maintenance procedure for disabling automatic engagement.
