A vacuum pump is associated with at least one oil collecting receptacle for supplying components of the transmission with oil, and the respective oil collecting receptacle can be evacuated or partially evacuated via the vacuum pump and at least one partial interior of the transmission can be evacuated or partially evacuated indirectly via the oil collecting receptacle via the vacuum pump accompanied by the generation of a defined negative pressure.
