- This push rod (approximately 82mm in length) is specifically designed for SHIMANO Nexus Inter-3 hubs with an overall axle length of 168mm ku.
- Muhimmi: Do not use this push rod with Nexus 3-speed hubs that have a 172mm overall axle length, as they require an 87mm push rod. Using the incorrect length will prevent proper gear shifting.
2. Tsarin Shigarwa
Installation typically involves inserting the push rod into the axle of the Nexus Inter-3 hub. This process usually occurs during the assembly or repair of the hub's internal shifting mechanism.
- Ensure the hub is clean and free of debris.
- Carefully insert the push rod into the designated channel within the hub axle.
- Confirm that the push rod is fully seated and moves freely within its channel.
- Proceed with the reassembly of the hub's shifting mechanism and external components according to the specific SHIMANO Nexus Inter-3 hub service instructions.

Ƙa'idar Aiki
The push rod is an integral part of the SHIMANO Nexus Inter-3 internal gear hub's shifting mechanism. When the shifter lever is actuated, it pulls or releases a cable, which in turn moves the push rod within the hub axle. This movement engages different planetary gear sets inside the hub, allowing the rider to select between the three available gears. The push rod's precise length ensures correct engagement and disengagement of these gears.

The SHIMANO Nexus Inter-3 SG-3C41 Push Rod itself requires no direct maintenance. Its function is passive within the sealed environment of the hub. However, proper maintenance of the entire Nexus Inter-3 hub system is essential for the longevity and smooth operation of the push rod and gears.
- Hub Lubrication: Follow SHIMANO's recommendations for periodic lubrication of the Nexus Inter-3 hub. This typically involves oiling or greasing the internal components to ensure smooth shifting and prevent wear.
- Kula da Kebul: Ensure the shifter cable is clean, lubricated, and free from kinks or corrosion. A well-maintained cable ensures the push rod moves correctly.
- Dubawa na yau da kullun: If the hub is disassembled for any reason, inspect the push rod for any signs of bending, corrosion, or damage. Replace if necessary.
Shirya matsala
If you experience shifting issues with your SHIMANO Nexus Inter-3 hub, the push rod may be a contributing factor. Consider the following:
- Incorrect Gear Engagement: If gears are difficult to select or do not engage properly, verify that the correct push rod length (82mm for 168mm axle) is installed. An incorrect push rod length is a common cause of shifting problems.
- Bent or Damaged Push Rod: A bent or damaged push rod can impede its movement within the axle, leading to poor shifting performance or complete failure to shift. Inspect the rod if the hub has been subjected to impact or improper assembly.
- Tashin hankali na USB: Ensure the shifter cable tension is correctly adjusted according to SHIMANO's specifications for the Nexus Inter-3 hub. Incorrect tension can mimic push rod issues.
- Internal Hub Issues: If the push rod is confirmed to be correct and undamaged, and cable tension is accurate, the issue may lie with other internal components of the hub, requiring professional service.
