Schneider Electric 4-Axis Joystick Lever Slow Break, IP65, 230 V ac, 3 A

Control heavy machines with ease using this joystick switch from Schneider Electric. The unit features four axes, which means you can easily move equipment in four different directions. Its slow-break switch initiates a time delay so you can control it precisely and pause it if you need to backtrack. This component has a bezel made from chromium-plated metal which has high abrasion resistance, making it ideal for tough applications. An IP66 (ingress protection) rating indicates that its enclosure is protected against dust and is resistant to high-pressure water jets.

The handle that protrudes from the base is called the lever and this is what you use to control the switch. You only need one notch to move it in a direction. Slowly push the lever in the direction you want the machine to go. The spring return quickly reverts it to its base state so you can use it again without resetting it.
