Nonholonomic mechanical system can be recognized as variable-speed drives, contained in many complex systems of modern techniques. This type of transmission has the connections of differential character between transmissions elements. The aim of this paper is to give one general approach to dynamical description of the behavior of one general example of transmissions with nonholonomic characteristics and to estimate stability of working system with changeable working regime. For dynamical description of the mechanical nonholonomic system Appell's differential equations are used. By numerical solving differential equations of motion an answer concerning the working stability as well as the dynamical and kinematics behavior of observed system can be get. The obtained results will serve as one of the constraint in choosing optimal parameters in the synthesis of such power transmissions.
