Manual starters are simple, user-friendly devices operated manually without requiring expert intervention. These starters feature a button or rotary knob that controls the connected equipment through mechanical linkages that open or close contacts to start/stop the motor.

Important Safety Note:

Manual starters do not break control circuits during power loss, which means motors could restart automatically when power returns. This requires careful consideration in certain applications.

• Safe and economical operation
• Compact size suitable for diverse applications
• Built-in overload protection for motor safety
• Available with various enclosure options
• Cost-effective initial investment

When the engine is activated (via stop/start button or ignition key), an electrical signal is sent to the starter solenoid. This component transfers power from the battery to the starter motor, which activates the starter drive (Bendix gear system) to engage the vehicle's flywheel.

The starter motor cranks the engine to initiate combustion in petrol and diesel vehicles. Once the engine is running, the mechanism disengages the starter motor from the flywheel as the engine no longer requires the electrical spark to maintain operation.
