Thus with ignition switch in ON position, vehicle in
neutral gear; the current flows through relay when
starter button is pressed.
Starter motor is energised which engages the pinion
to ring gear on flywheel and the starting shock is
absorbed by spring.
Upon engaging the ring gear rotates with magneto
rotor and engine starts.
Once the engine starts, ring gear rpm becomes more
than the pinion and pinion is forced back to its rest
position.
On vehicles with button start, a 12V motor is used to
crank the engine instead of a kick, when button is
pressed.
The starter motor draws it current from a 12V - 9 AH
battery through a relay (solenoid switch).
The solenoid switch (relay) is energized by pressing
starter button (Vehicle should be in neutral gear ).
When the relay gets energized it connects battery to
starter motor.
The supply of current to starter button is routed through
ignition switch. Hence the motor will run only when
the ignition switch is ON.
A battery charging coil on stator plate supplies A.C.
charging current to regulator. It converts it into D.C.
and charges the battery continuously when engine is
running. A 10 Amp fuse is provided for safety.
