unable to pass a list from viewmodel in a view to a partial view

Basically I have a view model

public class VM_MachineCheckSheet
{        
    public List<checksheet> checksheet;
    public List<MvcApplication2.Models.Machine.machine> machine;
}

My main View

@model MvcApplication2.Models.CheckSheet.VM_MachineCheckSheet

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "MachineCheckSheet";
}

@Html.RenderPartial("_MachineCheckBoxListPartial", Model.machine);

and my Partial View

@model IEnumerable&ltMvcApplication2.Models.Machine.machine&gt

<div id = "machine_filter" class = "machine_filter")
<table>
    <tr>

I populate the viewmodel in my controller then pass it to the main view and then pass only machine to the partial view which is strongly typed with IEnumerable&ltmachine&gt

this is the error i get

Compiler Error Message: CS1502: The best overloaded method match for 
'System.Web.WebPages.WebPageExecutingBase.Write(System.Web.WebPages.HelperResult)
'has some invalid arguments

Line 7:  @Html.RenderPartial("_MachineCheckBoxListPartial", Model.machine);

I don't know why there is a type mismatch between List of machine in the partial view and the one being passed in from the view model. They are the same thing. Any ideas?

You need to change

@Html.RenderPartial("_MachineCheckBoxListPartial", Model.machine);

To

@{ Html.RenderPartial("_MachineCheckBoxListPartial", Model.machine); }

FOR MORE
