How To Start/Stop The Machine
WARNING:
Never start machine when the

tion.
The switch to start and stop the machine is activated
by the interlock switch (1) and the levers (2) under the
handle grips. See figure 8.
To start the machine, follow this procedure:
1. Lower the handle
2. Lock the handle in the best position for operation.
NOTE: Make sure you hold the handle with both
hands.
3. Push the interlock switch (1), and apply pressure to

you firmly grip the handle with both hands.
The side to side movement of the machine is controlled
by raising the handle and pressing down on the handle.
To move the machine to the left, press down on the
handle slightly. To move the machine to the right, raise
