Work of a mechanical transmission

Position of the lever of gear shifting is traditional for five transfers of a forward course as it is represented in drawing.

At gear shifting completely press a pedal of coupling and, after inclusion of the corresponding transfer, slowly release it. The special element of safety does not allow to include transfer of a backing (R) from situation by the included heel of transfer (5). The lever of switching should return to neutral situation, and transfer of a backing (R) then can be included.

Before to include transfer of a backing (R), be convinced that the car is completely stopped.

For prevention of premature wear or damage of coupling do not go, having put a foot on a coupling pedal. Also do not use coupling for car deduction from movement back on lifting (during a stop at an intersection, etc.).

ON THE HIGHEST TRANSFER

For normal accelerations it is recommended to switch transfers at the next speeds:

These data are based on the carried-out tests therefore it is recommended to adhere to the provided data.

In some situations when it is necessary to use more completely car capacity, can switch transfers later. But thus never exceed admissible frequency of rotation of a cranked shaft of the engine.

ON THE LOWEST TRANSFER

If at delay in a difficult road situation or at movement on descent there will be a need to pass to the lowest transfer, switch transfer before frequency of rotation of a cranked shaft of the engine will strongly decrease. The lowest transfer reduces probability of a stop of the engine and gives opportunity of faster dispersal when in it there will be a need. At movement from abrupt descent switching on one transfer down will allow to keep safe speed and will prolong service life of brakes.
