PURPOSE:To minimize a time-lag in the change gear operation performed on the way of a steeply sloping road and the like by supplying an air cylinder with air by a fixed time earlier before a shift head reaches its neutral position in the select operation followed by the shift operation of gear position. CONSTITUTION:Various conditions of a running vehicle, such as shift signal 9, engine speed 13, engine output 14, change gear ratio 15, vehicle running speed 16, present gear position 18 and the like, are input to a computer 23, and these are compared with various types of shift pattern stored beforehand in a fixed memory 21. Subsequently, when the change gear operation is to be performed, the necessity of doing the select operation followed by the shift operation of gear position is judged by means of a judgement circuit 22. In addition, the device is formed in such a manner that, if the select operation is judged necessary, a signal to supply an air cylinder 24 for the select operation with air in order to start pre-load is sent out of the computer 23 by a fixed time earlier before a shift head reaches its neutral position. Consequently, a feeling of physical disorder is no more given to a driver at the time of his change gear operation performed on the way of a sloping road where a quick change of gear is required.
