ABSTRACT:
An ergonomic handle mechanism for a cutting machine having a vertically reciprocating knife. The position of the handle between a horizontal orientation and an orientation at an angle thereto is adjustable for greater comfort as well as a longer working time without tiring so that greater productivity may be achieved. A link to which the handle is attached is pivotally mounted to a block which is fixedly attached to the machine housing. A pin having an eccentric portion received in a groove in the link is provided to determine handle position by the rotational position of the pin. A projection is provided on the block for limiting the pivotal movement of the link and thus acting as a stop in case of pin breakage.
