I'd be willing to bet money that the servo controls a break for the motor, and isn't a shifter. With that break so high in the gearbox(the motor pinion), it wouldn't require much force to stop it from turning. Its probably an anti-back drive mechanism for an arm. Very simple and lightweight I might add.
