Batteries
The batteries provide power for the electrical circuits. Two 12-volt batteries are
connected in series to provide 24-volt starting power.
2
The alternator provides 28-volt, 80-amp. current to charge the batteries and
operate the electrical system.
3
Starter Motor
Part of the starting circuit, the starter motor is used to turn the engine flywheel
fast enough to start the engine.
4
Slave Receptacle
The slave receptacle can be used to charge the batteries and slave start the
engine from an external power source. The slave receptacle can also be used
to charge and slave start other equipment.
5
Fuse Panel
The fuse panel provides centrally located fuses that will open the battery circuit
if there is a shorted, grounded wire or excessive current draw by a defective
component in the corresponding circuit. When the circuit is open, no current
will flow through the electrical system. Fuses are easily replaced. If a fuse
continually trips, the affected component or vehicle electrical system requires
repair.
