Abstract:
1. Self-propelled agricultural machine having a travel drive, having a control element ( 46 ) able to be moved by the driver, for controlling the speed of travel of the machine, and having at least one work-performing unit ( 2 , 3 , 5 - 13 , 24 , 27 , 28 , 40 , 41 , 42 ) which, while the machine is travelling, can assume an active state and an inactive state as selected by the driver, characterised in that the machine is set up to decide (S 3 , S 4 ′) whether a movement of the control element ( 36 ) which is sensed is a regular control movement or an emergency stop movement, and the work-performing unit ( 2 , 3 , 5 - 13 , 24 , 27 , 28 , 40 , 41 , 42 ) is changed to the inactive state (S 6 -S 9 ) if it is decided that the movement sensed is an emergency stop movement.
