OPERATION
To shift gears, move the control lever
to select the F (forward), N (neutral),
or R (reverse) gear.
The control lever cannot be moved
from the N (neutral) position unless
the neutral release lever is squeezed
(side-mount/flush-mount types).
Moving the control lever beyond the
gear selection range increases engine
speed.
