What must be ensured about part Y when installing the kit described in the procedure?

When installing a kit that includes part Y, ensuring that it faces the proper direction is crucial. Components involved in manual transmissions are designed with specific alignment requirements to function correctly. If part Y is not oriented correctly, it can lead to improper engagement or binding during operation, potentially resulting in transmission failure or reduced performance.

Correct positioning often relates to interlocking features or guides that direct how components fit together, ensuring they work harmoniously. This alignment helps in maintaining the mechanical integrity and function of the assembly, preventing issues that could arise from misalignment, such as excessive wear or damage to other parts.

While factors like being fully seated, lubricated, or undamaged are important considerations in a general installation, they do not specifically address the critical need for correct orientation, which is key to the proper functioning of the component in question.
