I am not familiar with your particular bike but for the most part they are all alike. There should be a small bolt on the end of the shift pedal. Tighten it up; it probably requires a 10mm wrench. Some bikes will have a linkage at the end of the shift pedal. The rod connecting the linkage will connect to the shift shaft using a small bolt as above. Tighten the bolt. Below is a diagram showing a linkage connection. In either style, the bolt to tighten is the one connected to the shift shaft.
