GENERAL.The engine electrical system consists of a starting circuit, a battery charging circuit, and protective andmonitoring devices. Electrical power for cranking the engine is supplied by two 12 volt, 100 amp-hour lead-acidtype batteries connected in series. A slave receptacle facilitates external connection to the batteries. The starterassembly is a 24 volt, heavy duty unit consisting of a starting motor, a solenoid, and a drive assembly. Thebattery charging alternator with integral voltage regulator and diode rectifier recharges and maintains thebatteries in a fully charged condition after starting.3-2.
