Abstract
In a wire-pulling mechanism, a second engaging portion is configured so that the position of the second engaging portion in the longitudinal direction of a second pulling wire is displaceable closer to the front end than an engaged portion of the second pulling wire, the second pulling wire is configured so as to enter the inside of a second movement track and extend in the shape of a straight line, in a neutral state of an operating unit, and the tilting operation of the operating unit causes the second engaging portion to be moved to the front end along the second movement track with respect to the second pulling wire and causes the engaged portion of the second pulling wire and the second engaging portion to be separated from each other from a state where the engaged portion of the second pulling wire and the second engaging portion engage each other.
