Do not engage or disengage the reverse gear
by
foot.
7. The gear box has yet another fixed neutral
position
between
the
bhird
and
fourth
gears.
This
neutral should
be
used when
coa-
sting.
The
neutral position should
be found
with the clutch
disengage·d,
by
using the
hand lever. Before
the
necessary
skill
is acquired,
the
front and rear arm of the
gearshift
pedal should be simultaneously
depressed with
the foot.
In
order
to
engage the
third
and
fourth
gears without impacts
after
coasting,
increase the engine speed
and
only then shift
to
the
required gear.

The
engagement of either
forward
or reverse gear i'S accompa
-
nied
by the
meshi•
ng
of t-wo
members
of the gear
box,
the
tooth of
one
member
ent-ering
the
space o.f
the
other.
T·he teeth of the
meshing
clutches or
gears
are
not
always arran-
ged in such a way that the space is opposite the tooth.
In
this case,
the gear engagement is
impossible.
To
facilitate
gear
engagement,
the space in the splined joints of the
gearshift
mechanism is made
much wider than the tooth thickness.
Difficulties during gear
engagement
may
arise
only when
the
coupling members are at
rest,
which
might
be in the case when the
motorcycle is
kept
at a standstill and
the
engine is not operating or
the clutch is
disengaged
with the engine operating.
Therefore,
it
is advisable to
·
s et the neutral or a
gea•
r Cilose to
neutral (fi,rst or second) before the motorcycle
comes
to a standstill
during a slowdown. Should a given gear fail to become
engaged,
with
the motorcycle
at a standstill,
release the clutch lever
(at
which
point the primary shaft
starts
rotating)
and
then depress the
clutch
lever
again
and engage the gear.
Tc engage the first or reve.r:Se
gear
without impacts, when
star-
ting from
rest,
it is necessary, after
declukhing,
to wait a few se-
conds before engaging the
gear
until
the primary
shaft
slows
down
its rotation.

During the
col•
d
season,
the starting mechanism ratchet may
o'pl€!r·a~e
with
noise
(.
r attling) if the gear box
has
not
yet warmed
up.
This
being
~he
ca.se,
do not operate the
engine
at high
speeds.
As the gear box is warmed up, the noise
will
disappear.
Dismantling and

of
the

Box
Dismantling
Dismantling should be carried
out
in the following
order:
1.
Remove the kick lever,
clutch
release lever, slide,
thrust
bea-
ring
and the end
piece of
the
clutch
release rod. Take down
the
disk
of
.the elastic coupling.
2. Tum of.f
two screws
securing the bushing of the
starting
me-
chanism shaft to the
front
wall of the
casing
and
release the
tension
("winding-up")
of the spring of the starting
mechanisrm
shaft.
