Key/Ignition Switch
The ignition switch (Figure 5) makes the proper connections for the starter, safety circuits, and accessories.
Detents inside the switch control the three switch positions: OFF, RUN, and START. The START position is spring
loaded so that it automatically returns to the RUN position when released.
