If it is a centrifugal clutch it might be stuck from lack of use which might explain why it is necessary to engage neutral to avoid stalling.

Also I should have thanked Tobias for joining in.

David,
There is another word before before 'sliding clutch', which is Sicherheilts, which translates as Safety, so safety sliding clutch. I think centrifugal is most likely as it does not need a separate control.

Yes, thanks to Tobias for the interesting diagrams and welcome to the forum.
