Disposer won't start

Model Number: 175.60555 Brand: Kenmore Age: More than 10 years

Disposer was working perfectly then would not start; power is okay, motor hums, nothing stuck, blades turn freely in both directions. This unit had the same problem in 1995 and service tech. adjusted start switch which solved the problem. I would like to try such an adjustment before replacing the disposer. Can anyone tell me the procedure for adjusting the start switch?
