ABSTRACT:
A manipulation lever can be manipulated to select a first mode for automatically changing the drive range of an automatic transmission or a second mode for changing the drive range by manually manipulating the manipulation lever. The manipulation lever is shifted between the first mode in which a control lever moves mechanically with the manipulation lever and the second mode in which the control lever does not move with the manipulation lever. A first guide portion guides the manipulation lever and a second guide portion guides the clutch lever. When the manipulation lever is arranged at the drive position, the first and second guide portions permit the manipulation lever to be disengaged from the clutch lever. When the manipulation lever is arranged at positions other than the drive position, the first and second guide portions keep the manipulation lever to be engaged with the clutch lever.
