Transmission Fluid, like in automatic transmissions of cars, is used to transfer the power of the engine to the drive shaft. It's a hydraulic fluid, and the transmission is a hydraulic pump and a hydraulic drive all in one. The motor drives the pump (the torque converter), and it compresses the transmission fluid which in turn drives the clutch assembly.
