STARTER SWITCH
OFF
STOP
The position at which the key is inserted or drawn out.
The starter switch is “OFF” at this position.
The engine stops when the starter switch is turned to
this position.
ON
The electric circuit for the starter motor and others is
closed.
On the diesel-powered truck, the glow indicator light will
come on when the starter switch is turned to “ON”. After
the glow indicator light goes out, turn the starter switch
to the “START” position.
START
The engine starts. After the engine starts up, remove
your hand from the key. The starter switch will
automatically return to the “ON” position.
NOTE
1. Do not keep the starter switch in the “ON” position
while the engine is not running; otherwise the
battery will go dead prematurely.
2. While the engine is running, do not turn the
starter switch to the “START” position; otherwise
the starter motor will be damaged.
3. Do not keep the starter motor turning for more
than 10 seconds at a time. If the engine won’t
start, wait about 20 seconds before trying again.
4. Make sure the shift lever(s) are in neutral before
trying to start the engine. The engine won’t start
up unless the shift lever(s) are in neutral.
