Joystick Power Cut Off Switch:
A Joystick Supply Cut Off Switch (Master Switch) can be added to the Machete in order to
eliminate the possibility of damage caused by the joystick moving while roading the machine over rough
terrain. Inadvertent movement of the controller can result in uncontrolled movement of the boom which
may result in damage to the boom rest, the tractor or other areas.
