  Grounding-Type Safety Break-Away / Kill Switch with Pull-Pin.
Use for competition pulling only; mount on rear of tractor. When the pin
pulled, it grounds the ignition coil from producing spark. If using with
a self-energizing magneto or electronic/solid state ignition systems: Connect
one wire to the chassis ground, and connect the other wire to the
points/condenser wire or to the kill terminal on the solid state ignition
coil/module. If using with a battery-powered ignition system: Connect one
wire to the chassis ground, and connect the other wire to the coil negative
(–) terminal. NOTE: With battery-powered ignition, as soon as pin
is pulled (engine will die), manually shut off ignition switch right away
to prevent possible damage to the ignition coil and electronic ignition module
if equipped with crank trigger ignition. This type of switch does not
disable power to the
electric fuel pump on a pulling tractor. It must be
shut-off manually by the ignition switch or an OFF-ON toggle switch.

Key positions: OFF position makes contact with M+G; IGNITION position makes
contact with B+L; START position makes contact with B+S. Each terminal identified
for correct wiring connections. IMPORTANT: Use with a starter solenoid/relay
to crank the engine to prevent burning out internal contacts in switch. NOTE:
If engine is equipped with an alternator/stator charging system, the center
terminal on the voltage rectifier/regulator connects to the positive (+)
battery post. If using an ammeter/amp gauge, connect the gauge/meter to the
positive (+) battery post, then to the B terminal on the switch. Trace the
wires on your tractor/equipment to see if they match the terminals on this
switch. If they don't match, the plug-in spade connectors/wires can be rearranged
in the plastic connector housing to match the corresponding terminals on
the switch. To do this, use a small flat blade screwdriver to depress the
locking tab/tang so the plug-in connector can be pulled out from the plastic
connector housing. Bend the locking tab/tang up slightly before reinserting
it in the plastic connector so it will be secured in place. Or for a universal

 High Torque
Gear Starter Motors. Fits Kohler engine models K141, K161 and K181. 12 volt
negative ground. All starter motors are high torque nowadays. They have 20%
more wire windings than the early OEM Kohler starter, giving it 20% more
cranking power. Draws less amps; a smaller size battery can be used. Cranks
engine about twice as fast and draws less amps than an ordinary starter.
But with a
broken compression release, a direct-drive high torque starter may not be
able to crank the engine. It'll be best to adjust the valve clearances, repair
the compression release mechanism or replace the cam with a working compression
release. FYI - The aftermarket starter motors I
sell are the same as OEM Kohler starters. Kohler just place a big markup
on theirs because it comes in a Kohler brand box and the starter has the
Kohler name stamped on it. Kohler part # 41 098 08-S.

 10 and 13 Tooth
Upper Mount High Torque Gear Starter Motors. (Mounting bolts are below starter
motor.) Fits certain Kohler K-series engine models K241, K301, K321, K341
and K361. 12 volt negative ground. All new starter motors are high torque
nowadays. They have 20% more wire windings than the early OEM Kohler starter,
giving it 20% more cranking power. Cranks engine about twice as fast and
draws less amps than an ordinary starter; a smaller battery can be used.
In addition to the extra windings, the 10 tooth starter gear gives this starter
extra torque so it'll crank the engine with less effort. The 10 tooth starter
provides 13% more cranking torque than the 13 tooth starter, and the 13 tooth
starter cranks the engine over 30% faster than the 10 tooth starter. The
13 tooth starter is best to be used with working compression release.
But with a
broken compression release, a direct-drive high torque starter may not be
able to crank the engine. It'll be best to adjust the valve clearances, repair
the compression release mechanism or replace the cam with a working compression
release. FYI - The 10 tooth starter cannot be used
in place of the 13 tooth starter, but the 13 tooth starter can be used in
place of the 10 tooth starter by shimming/spacing the starter away from the
engine block with an ordinary flat washer on each mounting
bolt.
And the aftermarket starter motors I sell are the same as
OEM Kohler starters. Kohler just place a big markup on theirs because it
comes in a box with the Kohler name on it and the starter has the Kohler
name stamped on it. NOTE: The early K241 and K301 engines must have

 Universal
Analog 10 Amp and 20 Amp Ammeter / Amp Gauge Kits. Gauges registers up
to 10 or 20 amps of charge, depending on total output amperage of stator
or alternator. Install these gauges to know exactly what the charging system
on your engine is doing. Having an ammeter/amp gauge installed is very important
in monitoring the charging system to prevent premature failure of electrical
components. By the time you smell something burning or see smoke, it may
be too late. If the charging system continues to charge on the plus (+) side
with no gradual moving back of the needle to zero on the gauge (if installed)
while the engine is running at full governed speed, this will send too much
voltage to the battery, which could eventually burn up the cells in the battery,
or burn up the primary windings in the ignition coil. Overcharging of the
electrical system could also burn up the electronic ignition control module/unit
(crank-trigger and flywheel-trigger), burn
out light bulbs, electric PTO clutch or any other electrical accessories.
As battery becomes fully charged, needle slowly moves from positive side
(+) to zero (0). Needle will stay on negative side (–) if no charge
goes to the battery. Or gauge will not show any charge at all if charging
system is not working. Easy 2-wire connections. Connect the positive (+)
terminal on back of gauge to the positive (+) battery post, and connect the
negative (–) terminal on back of gauge to the wire going to the ignition
switch that provides power to everything. If the
wires/connections are reversed, and if the charging system is in good working
condition, the gauge will show discharge (–) instead of charge (+).
Use minimum 12 gauge (AWG) stranded wire. Non-lighted gauges. Each require
a 2" diameter mounting hole and comes with mounting clamp and nuts.

 Analog 15 Amp
Voltage Regulator for 12 Volt Starter/Generators. If the charging system
continues to charge with no gradual moving back of the needle to zero on
an analog ammeter/amp gauge (if installed) while the
engine is running, this will put too much voltage throughout the entire
electrical system, which could eventually burn up the ignition coil, battery,
burn out light bulbs, burn up the electric PTO clutch, burn up the electronic
ignition control module (crank trigger ignition)
and burn up the any other electrical components. With the terminals facing
you, they read: L = Lights | Bat = Battery | F = Field, A = Armature (on
the bottom). L connects to the Lights (if equipped); Bat connects to the
ignition switch, which connects to the battery positive (+) post; F connects
to the Field terminal on the starter/generator; and A connects to the Armature
terminal on the starter/generator. The frame of the regulator must be securely
grounded to the engine, tractor or equipment through the mounting bolts,
which connects to the battery negative (–) post. NOTE: Cannot be
substituted for use with the alternator/stator charging system.

   Two Wire Rectifier
Diodes. The 3- and 4-amp diodes can be used in a 12 volt non-regulated small
engine alternator/stator charging system to convert alternating current (AC)
to direct current (DC) to recharge the battery and/or power low-amperage
DC electrical accessories, such as LED lights, small electric motors, etc.
A diode is not required for
filament light bulbs, fluorescent and/or an electric PTO
clutch. The 1 amp diode can be used on an engine with a small charging coil
next to the magneto ignition coil on the stator to energize the field windings
in a direct-drive 120/240 volt AC portable generator powered by a small engine
or for a belt-driven
automotive alternator that's powered by a small engine so the
alternator/generator will produce electricity as soon as the engine starts.
IMPORTANT - Install the diode with the silver stripe toward the generator's
field windings. And do not overload the amperage of the diode or it may burn
up.
FYI - Briggs & Stratton engines have either one or two OEM alternator stators and they are joined together in two half circles under the flywheel. Some engines only come with one half stator. Each half produce 3 amps of power & 14 volts @ 3,600 RPM. If an engine comes with two stators joined together, one half produces AC, which is used to power the lights and electric PTO clutch. And the other half also produce AC, but is connected to a minimum 3 amp/14 volt diode, which is used to only recharge the battery. Under normal yard use, 3 amps is not enough to overcharge and burn up the battery. If both stator halves are wired together from the factory (as they are on certain engines), they will produce 6 amps of AC power and a 6 amp electronic/solid state voltage rectifier/regulator is used to power the lights, electric PTO clutch and recharge the battery. |
|
 Electronic/Solid
State Voltage Rectifier/Regulator for Old Style 10 Amp Output 12 Volt Alternator
Charging Stators (listed below). If the charging system continues to generate
full charge with no gradual moving back of the needle to zero on an analog
ammeter/amp gauge (if installed) while the engine
is running, the excessive overcharging may eventually burn out the primary
windings in the ignition coil, burn up the electronic ignition control module
(crank trigger), burn up the battery, burn
out light bulbs, electric PTO clutch, and any other electrical accessories.
These will also work with virtually any 15 or 20 amp small engine
alternator/stator charging system. Orientation of terminals are "three in
a row" (AC | BAT+ | AC). NOTE: Cannot be substituted for use with the
starter/generator charging system. FYI: After many years of use and
for reasons unknown (even to me), the old-style 10 amp charging system is
notorious for generating very few amps, about 3 amps more or less maximum
at full governed engine speed, and I have no idea why. I believe this is
why the 10 amp stator was a short-lived item that was discontinued from Kohler
and replaced with the more reliable 15 or 20 amp stator charging system,
which works much better and is still in use on many makes and models of small
engines today. So if your engine has the 10 amp charging system and it only
generates a few amps, it may need to be upgraded with the new-style 15 or
20 charging system.

electrical system, which could eventually burn up the ignition coil, battery,
burn out light bulbs, burn up the electric PTO clutch, burn up the electronic
ignition control module (crank trigger ignition)
and burn up the any other electrical components. Each listed below work the
same. These voltage rectifier/regulators are small, compact and have the
same mounting hole spacing, and fit many 8 thru 24hp Kohler engine models
with a 15 or 20 amp alternator/stator charging stator under the flywheel.
For various makes and models of small engines with a 30 amp stator, instead
of using a 30 amp NOS (and high dollar) replacement voltage rectifier/regulator
(discontinued Kohler part # 277063-S), two 15/20 amp voltage
rectifiers/regulators wired in parallel can be used. Each listed below mounts
in the rectangular hole in the Kohler flywheel shroud with ribs facing the
flywheel for better cooling of the unit. If it's mounted elsewhere with no
cool air blowing over it, it could overheat and prematurely burn up. These
can be substituted for use on virtually any 15 or 20 amp garden tractor,
motorcycle, etc., alternator/stator charging system. Orientation of terminals
are "three in a row" (AC - BAT+ - AC). NOTE: These cannot be substituted
for use with the starter/generator charging system.

Alternator Charging Stators (listed below). If the charging system continues
to charge with no gradual moving back of the needle to zero on an analog
ammeter/amp gauge (if installed) while the engine
is running, this will put too much voltage throughout the entire electrical
system, which could eventually burn up the ignition coil, battery, burn out
light bulbs, burn up the electric PTO clutch, burn up the electronic ignition
control module (crank trigger ignition) and
burn up the any other electrical components. Each listed below work the same.
Each have same mounting holes and fit many 8 thru 24hp Kohler engines with
a 15 amp alternator charging stator under the flywheel. These can be substituted
for use on virtually any 15 or 20 amp garden tractor, motorcycle, etc.,

High Quality Digital
Tachometer/Proximity Sensor Kits. A tachometer is required in setting
the correct engine RPM, which is normally 3,200 or 3,600 RPM (depending on
type of carburetor), to prevent from over-revving and possible damage to
the engine or dangerous flywheel explosion. Choice of a
RED or
BLUE numeric display. Will work with
most small engines or multi-cylinder automotive engines, gas or diesel. The
great thing about this type of tachometer is that it needs no setup or
programming. It displays accurate RPM as soon as the engine cranks over to
start. Displays up to 9,999 RPM. Very accurate. Tachometer returns to zero
[0000] when engine is shut down. Can be used for lawn & garden equipment
or competition pulling engines. Designed to be permanently mounted to monitor
engine RPM at all times. Tachometer can be in-dash or panel-mounted. This
precision digital tachometer operates with external power and on the same
principle as my

CV14, CV15, CV18, CV20, CV22, TH16, TH18, TH575 and TH650 with the old style
and new style high torque starter motors. If the windings are not burnt in
a used starter, use this to refurbish the starter motor. No need to purchase
a new starter motor.
Replacement 10 Tooth Starter
Drive Gear Kit (Bendix). Fits Kohler K-series engine models K241, K301, K321,
K341 and K361 with the new style upper or lower mount starter motor (listed
below) with the 10 tooth gear. Will not fit the OEM old style starter motors.
Also fits Kohler Magnum engine models M10, M12, M14 and M16. If the windings
are not burnt, and the brushes and bushings are in good condition in a used
starter, use this kit to refurbish the starter motor. No need to purchase
a new starter motor.
Most quality-made starter motors are designed to last the life of the engine.
Therefore, if a good starter burns up prematurely, then this means that it
has cranked the engine for too long at one time. All starters are actually
6 volt motors operating on 12 volts. This is what gives them so much torque
to crank the engine so fast and with ease. So if a starter motor is spun
too long (longer than 2 minutes), the excess voltage will burn up the wire
windings in the starter. The longer it's spun, the hotter it will get, which
causes the windings to get very hot, which causes the insulating/separating
varnish coating on the windings to melt. When the coating melts, the windings
make contact with each other and become shorted out, and you have a burned
up starter on your hands. That's why most owner's and repair manuals say
to never crank an engine longer than 2 minutes at a time without allowing
adequate time for the starter to cool before cranking it again. (If an engine
won't start within 2 minutes of cranking, then it obviously needs a major
tune-up or repair!)
Stator to Engine Block Mounting
Screws with star lock washer. Screw size: 10-24 UNC size x 3/4" length.
Do not touch the
two wire terminals or the energizing coils wire on the stator with your bare
hands while the engine is running! Electrical shock or electrocution could
result!
