Push Button Starter
Push button starters are optional on Kalmar tractors. There are
two basic types of toggle ignition switches: three position and
two position.
The three-position type functions like the standard key type
with OFF, ACCESSORY and RUN positions. The button
engages the starter when the switch is in the RUN position
only.
The two-position switch has only the OFF and RUN positions.
It has no provision for the ACCESSORY position. The button
engages the starter in the RUN position only.
If the engine does not start within 30 seconds, release the
starter switch and wait 3 minutes to allow the starter
motor to cool. If after three repeated attempts the engine
still fails to start, stop and determine the cause. The
starter motor may be damaged by repeated attempts to
start the engine.
NOTICE
Some vehicles may be equipped with optional shut down
systems or optional starter switches. Contact your Kalmar
dealer if you have any questions regarding the operation of
any optional starter switches or shut down systems.
For
starting the vehicle
, refer to page 30, Starting the Engine.
3.1.6 Electrical Equipment
Accessory Connections
The wiring harness in the Kalmar tractor is designed to support
many vehicle options. These options may or may not already
be on your vehicle. If any electrical equipment is installed on
the vehicle after it leaves the factory, contact your Kalmar
dealer first. Your dealer can provide you with information on
proper electrical modifications and installations. Generally,
there will be an accessory location on the harness where you
will need it. Do not risk damaging your vehicle or voiding the
warranty by making improper and poor electrical modifications.
Contact your Kalmar dealer first.
Relays/Breakers/Fuses
The Kalmar tractor is equipped with two power boards. One
power board is located in the cab under the center panel of the
dash. The second power board is located in the chassis over
the transmission on the left side. See following figures for fuse,
breaker and relay locations.
