Use of transformation device
Transformation device is able to allow the engine running smoothly within normal range of operation. The transmission gear ratio is carefully
selected for the engine performance. Driver shall select gears suitable to general conditions but shall not use the clutch for the purpose of speed
control. To decelerate, shift to a low gear to allow the engine running in a normal speed range.
Precaution：
The engine speed shall not be in the red range of the tachometer in any gear.
Driving on a slope
To shift from a high gear to a low gear, control the speed in a safe speed range before gear shifting. Otherwise, abrupt deceleration (sudden
rise of engine speed) may happen, causing gear impacts, sever parts wearing, or overbalance of the vehicle. it is dangerous.
Slope climbing:
When going up a steep slope, the motorcycle may decelerate due to insufficient power. Then, immediately shift to a low gear to allow the engine
running a normal power range. Pay attention that, gear shifting shall be made quickly to keep adequate forward momentum of the motorcycle.
When going down a slope, use the engine for braking, by shifting into a lower gear.
Be sure to keep in mind that, never drive too fast down a slope! Never allow the engine to run a very high speed for a long time.
Use of brake and parking method
Rotate the accelerator grip outward to fully close the throttle.
At the same time, apply the front and rear brakes with even forces.
Use gear shifting to slow down.
Before the motorcycle is stopped, firmly press the clutch grip, shift into neutral gear and observe the neutral indicator to make sure the neutral
gear is engaged.
