ALL circuit breakers to the OFF position prior to starting
the engine.

Over Current Relay
An over current relay (Figure 13) is connected to the main

breaker and the over current relay may trip. If the circuit
breaker can not be reset, the
reset button on the over
current relay must be pressed. The over current relay is
located in the control box.
