(2) Repeat the joystick movement in the opposite direction to commence the initial swinging motion of the car, note that a fully laden car will require approximately 10 swings before it goes over the top. Observe all passengers for any signs of acute distress or dangerous behavior … if this is apparent then stop the ride, and if a passenger is in distress summon qualified help immediately.
(3) When the car has gone over the top then hold the joystick in this position to maintain steady rotation. Continue to observe all passengers for distress or dangerous behavior and stop the ride if necessary.
