The neutral is also switched, it is a double pole switch. Connect your drawn blue wire to the bottom left switch contact and take the neutral out from the switched pole, bottom right.

Hi sorry if it sounds dumb but what do you mean by take the neuttal out from the switched pole
Yes, live goes to the top contacts and neutral to the bottom contacts on your switch. The neutral supply to your machine will be through the switch, just like the live is now.
