Abstract
In a flat knitting machine equipped with a manually movable handlebar (11) which is oriented parallel to a needle bed, the eccentrically mounted handlebar (11) is connected to a pivoting lever (15) which is the carrier of an armature (19) for a stationarily arranged electromagnet which can be excited via a control device and which, in the excited state, keeps the handlebar in an end position. The arrangement is such that, when the handlebar (11) is struck from above, the magnetic coupling can be released and it is also thereby possible to switch off the machine drive by hand in the quickest way possible.
