Shifting

The transmission lets you control the
amount of power you have available
at a given speed for starting,
accelerating, climbing hills, etc. The
use of the shift pedal is shown in the
illustration.
To shift into neutral, depress the shift
pedal repeatedly until it reaches the
end of its travel, then raise the pedal
slightly.
