Installing the battery

You have several battery options to power your starter
box. You can use 7.2V Ni-Cd or Ni-MH battery packs or a
single 12V gel cell. Preassembled wiring harnesses and
mounting fixtures for both of these options are included.
Please note the proper mounting and wiring layout in
Images 2 and 3. Start by removing the small Phillips head
screw on the top of the box as shown in Photo 1.

Two 7.2V battery packs

Install the holder and packs as seen in
Image 2 and the wiring diagram elsewhere.

Note: The plugs are keyed so they can only
be installed one way.

Gel Cell

Install the holder and gel cell as seen in Photo 3 and in
the wiring diagram.

Note: The Red (+) and Black (-) terminals on
the battery. Unless you plan on using the
power terminals next to the switch, you
must tape and/or cut the ends of the loose
battery leads. Do not leave these exposed
as they can easily short out the battery and
cause damage and a safety hazard.

Adjusting the chassis fixtures

Open the top and loosen the four Phillips head screws
that secure the chassis fixtures as seen in the photo.

Close the top and loosen the Phillips screws in the
locating fixture pegs and the at the center of the fixture
for both the front and rear fixtures..

Slide the locating pegs on the fixtures all the way out to
the end and the fixtures as far out from center as they
will go.

With the engine removed, place the chassis straight on
the starter box (see photo 11) so the starter wheel in the
box is centered directly below the opening in the chassis
where the engine flywheel would reside. Make sure the
starter wheel is centered left to right as well as front to
rear so it will not rub on the chassis.

Pick up the chassis first at the rear and then at the front
sliding the locating fixture inward until the locating pegs
are behind the front arms and in front of the rear arms. as
seen in Photos 8 and 9.

With the chassis still in place slide the locating pegs
inward on each side until they are sitting where the
chassis meets the pivot block. Tighten the Phillips head
screws in the pegs.

Check to make sure the starter wheel is still centered in
the opening for the engine flywheel and lift the chassis
straight up. Use a piece of tape to hold the fixtures and
tighten the center fixture screws. Replace the chassis into
the fixtures to confirm the fit and that the starter wheel
is still centered directly below the chassis cutout for the
flywheel. Make any adjustments necessary until both the
fit and centering are correct.

Open the box top and tighten the four fixture locating
screws to lock them in place as seen in Photo 4.
