A drum switch typically has several possible circuits. You'll need to get a diagram of the switch and learn to read the schematic.
By changeover switch, if you mean forward reverse switch, the correct electrical terminology you should be searching is, wiring of an electrical drum switch.
You have a 3 way switch. Your black wire is the hot wire. Your green wire is the ground wire. Your red and white wires go to the light and other switch. You should have gotten a wiring diagram with your switch.
with a standard 1 pole light switch (one switch operating the light) it is black wire to black wire and white to white (non grounded)
the safest position for a switch is on the live wire and not on the neutral wire

If it is a 2-wire switch- yes If it is a 3-wire switch- no
Wire the switch to the hot/black lead.

A switch is inserted in series with a single wire. When the switch is on, it is as if the wire had not been opened to insert the switch. When the switch is off the wire is open and no current can flow. All a double pole switch does is allows you to switch two separate wires at the same time with the same switch action. A single pole switch just switches one wire.
with a standard 1 pole light switch (one switch operating the light) it is black wire to black wire and white to white (non grounded)
If you have one wire into your switch box for your light. this is called a switch leg, the dimmer should be wired across the black and white wire wires.

the switch is inside the back cover, but you should check the shift drum. the end of the shift drum has a slot in which the neutral switch sets in, and on my rancher the end of the shift drum was broke so when the quad is in neutral the switch said it was in gear you pretty much have to completely disassemble the whole engine and tranny to change the shift drum. good luck
