we have h machine that has a military 4 cylinder 6 horse gas engine. the person we got the machine from said it has 24 volt starter. there are what look like 2 lawnmower batteries on it and a voltage test shows aprox 5V per battery. so were wondering if the baterys are 6 V per and they jsut usumed they were both 12V batteries. or have the batterys gone bad?
i am unable to read anything on the starter label becase of it's location. there apears to be a small motor looking thing on the side and then a bigger motor that i beleve is the starter wired in sieries.
is there any harm in trying to start off a car battery.
i have looked at manuals for it and they all show starting it using a pull rope wraped around a pully. nothing mentioned about a starter.
it is stock #nsn-2805-00-068-7512
any ideas or sugestions apreciated.
