I have other friends with that machine that have had the same run away problem.

Looks like a new project for my DH. ha ha ha It won't be tomorrow though as he and my DD will be shoveling a good part of the day. Thanks for the input.
If you plug the machine directly into the outlet marked "light", it will run continuously--that's the way it's wired. It must be plugged into the "motor" side for the pedal to control the electricity.
Yep. Thats what I told her on the previous page.
