Should You Press the Clutch When Shifting from First to Second Gear?
1 Answers
You should press the clutch when shifting from first to second gear. Here are the relevant details: 1. Introduction: The clutch's driving part and driven part transmit torque through friction between contact surfaces, or use liquid as a transmission medium (hydraulic coupling), or magnetic transmission (electromagnetic clutch). This allows them to temporarily separate and gradually engage, permitting mutual rotation during transmission. 2. Precautions: Whether upshifting or downshifting, clutch operation should follow the principle of slow first, then fast. This is because there is a power interruption process during gear shifting. After shifting, the clutch should be released slowly to ensure smooth engagement, then quickly relaxed.
