I suggest "Raststellung" for neutral, half speed, and full speed respectively. The lever notches into the positions (gates) for these speed settings.

Schaltkulisse

Der Hebel wird in einer Kulisse (gate, vermutlich eine Art Kamm) geführt, wobei eine Feder den Hebel in Richtung Kulisse vorspannt. Der Hebel rastet somit in die 'Zähne' der Kulisse ein.
Note from asker:
There are also "neutral gate"/ "half speed gate" and "full speed gate"- are we talking about "Gang" here?
Something went wrong...
