1. ELECTRIC STARTER
1.1. DESCRIPTION OF THE ELECTRIC STARTER SYSTEM
The electric starters used to start all
Kohler
engines are standard commercially-available products, with a
toothed pinion that moves linearly to engage with the flywheel gear.
The electric starter pinion is operated with a start button. This pinion disengages as soon as the start button is
released or when a tachometer relay detects a particular gear mesh frequency and disables the electric starter.
1.2. INSTALLATION
The wiring diagram below shows the installation with starter motor.
