Battery Connections
Use the following materials to connect a 12-volt battery to the starter
on type 7 units (with electric start switch/fixed throttle/manual choke):
• Battery – 12-volt lead acid battery with a recommended ampere-hr
rating of 3 Ah or a 14.4-volt NiCd battery with a recommended
ampere-hr rating of 1.7 Ah.
• Wire – 12-gauge (minimum) wire with a maximum length of
10 feet (3 meters).
• Fuse – 40-ampere blade type fuse.
• Terminal – Delphi 56 series male connector and terminal to
connect to the starter motor.
Coat the battery terminals and cable ends with dielectric grease. Be
careful not to connect the battery in reverse polarity.
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain
lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
1. Connect the battery positive (+) cable using the appropriate
connector and insulator to the supplied starter connector.
2. Connect the battery negative (-) cable to an engine mounting bolt,
frame bolt, or the provided ground position on the starter motor
(requires 5 x 8 mm screw).
3. Connect the battery positive (+) cable to the battery positive (+)
terminal as shown.
4. Connect the battery negative (-) cable to the battery negative (-)
terminal as shown.
The following diagram only shows connections for type 7 units
(with electric start switch/fixed throttle/manual choke). Connections
are different for the other electric start types (types 4 and 6).
If the engine is not equipped with a charge coil, the battery will lose
charge during starter motor operation only. There is no drain on the
battery once the engine is running.
The battery must be charged by an external battery charging system if
the engine is not equipped with a charge coil. Refer to the equipment
manufacturer’s instructions or the battery manufacturer for specific
external battery charging recommendations.
