Ignition Switch
The ignition switch is used to start and stop the en-
gine. The switch has three positions: “O” is the OFF
position, RUN is the position the key returns to after
starting, and “S” is the START position. When start-
ing the engine, turn the key clockwise to the “S” po-
sition. Do not hold the key in the “S” position longer
than 10 seconds. If the engine does not start, return
the key to the “O” position for at least 60 seconds be-
fore making a restart attempt. Prolonged cranking
can damage the starter motor and shorten battery
life. Release the key when the engine starts, and it
will return to the “RUN” position. To stop the engine,
rotate the key counterclockwise to the “O” position.
Ignition Switch
Light Switch (For Optional Lights)
Operates headlights (when installed).
Warning Horn
The warning horn sounds to alert the operator that
an unsafe engine condition is being indicated -
when engine temperature is too high or engine oil
pressure is too low. If the horn sounds, check the
indicator lights and correct the problem before fur-
ther operation.
Circuit Breakers
Depending on model, either one or two manual reset
circuit breakers are located on the instrument panel.
Each has a button that pops out if the circuit breaker
trips. For Models MT and MTEFI, the 7 amp circuit
breaker protects the safety circuits and GHS. For
Model MTL, the 7 amp circuit breaker protects the
warning lights/horn, safety circuits and GHS. For
Model MTL, the 10 amp circuit breaker protects the
headlights. For Model MT, the 30 amp circuit
breaker (located near the battery) protects the in-
strument panel and headlights. For Model MTL, the
two 30 amp circuit breakers protect the instrument
panel, starter solenoid and ’fan’ control module. For
Model MTEFI, the 30 amp circuit breaker protects
the instrument panel, headlights, starter solenoid
and ECU.
