Manual starters are devices operated manually, featuring simple operation without requiring expert intervention. These starters include a button or rotary knob that enables users to turn connected equipment on or off through mechanical linkages that open or close contacts.

Important Safety Note:

Manual starters do not break control circuits during power loss, meaning motors could restart automatically when power returns. This requires careful consideration in safety-critical applications.

• Safe and economical operation
• Compact size suitable for diverse applications
• Overload protection for motor safety
• Wide selection of enclosure options
• Low initial cost

When activated (via stop/start button or key ignition), an electrical signal is sent to the starter solenoid, which then transfers power from the battery to the starter motor. This activates the starter drive (Bendix gear), engaging the engine's flywheel to crank the engine and initiate combustion.

Once the engine is running, the starter motor automatically disengages from the flywheel as the engine no longer requires the initial electrical spark.
