Other Important Don'ts.

Among other "don'ts'' for the un
skilled operator of sliding gears are
these:
Don't fail to know exactly where the
reverse" position of the gear-shift
lever is, and don't fail scrupulously to
avoid this position, so long as the car
is moving forward.
Don't try to shift from higher gear
to a lower gear without letting the
car speed slacken somewhat before SO
doing.
Don't try to change from high gear
to low without letting the car nearly
stop.
Don't fail to speed up the car some
what before changing from a lower to
a higher gear.
The following out of these few sug-
gestions will eliminate much unneceS-
Sary noise and wear and tear.
TranSmiSSionS, as built today, are eX-
tremely rugged. but, nevertheless, mis-
handling such as the driver is here
warned against may chip the teeth OF
the gears or even cause the breakage
of shafts and other parts
1t always should be remembered that
two gears cannot be forced into en-
gagement quickly and easily unless
they are running at somewhat near the
same speed. This is an important point
IN gear-shifting.
