Abstract
A road finishing machine includes a control panel that can be selectively swiveled about a first swivel axis and a second swivel axis, where one operational control each is provided for the first and the second swivel axes for separately unlocking and/or locking a swiveling capacity around the respective swivel axis. One counter surface is fixed to the control panel for each of the operational controls. The swivel axes can be unlocked by pulling the respective operational control in the direction of the respective counter surface, and the control panel can be swiveled into the same direction.

A road finishing machine comprising:
- a control panel that can be selectively swiveled about a first swivel axis and a second swivel axis;
- one operational control provided for each of the first and the second swivel axes for separately unlocking and/or locking a swiveling capacity about the respective swivel axis;
- and
- a counter surface fixed to the control panel for each of the operational controls;
- wherein a respective swiveling capacity can be unlocked by pulling a respective operational control in a direction of the respective counter surface, and the control panel can be swiveled in the same direction.
A road finishing machine comprising:
- a bracket;
- a main support that is moveable relative to the bracket;
- a control panel associated with the main support;
- first and second connecting members that are each disposed between the bracket and the main support, the first and second connecting members being movably connected to the bracket such that each connecting member is able to be swiveled about a respective swivel axis;
- first and second operational controls that are each associated with a respective swivel axis for separately unlocking and/or locking a swiveling capacity about the respective swivel axis;
- and
- first and second counter surfaces associated with the first and second operational controls, respectively, the counter surfaces being fixed relative to the main support;
- wherein each operational control is configured to unlock a respective swiveling capacity when the operational control is pulled toward the respective counter surface to allow the control panel to swivel with respect to the bracket.
