Floor Mounted Starter Button

[AllAlloyCup]

Regards Hi there,
I’m sorry I didn’t photograph the bits
Of the starter switch for my Bacon slicer
When I had it apart a couple of weeks ago.

I think you’re missing quite a few bits.

I can see one solid  copper wedge within the housing.
You need two of those as they are the input and output feeds.

There’s a spindle attached in the back of the case. to the outer button and it carries
A double ring of “copper petals” which make contact with the solid copper
Wedges. There’s also a push off spring which keeps the contacts apart and various
bits of insulation.

My Lucas? Switch was a sealed unit and I had to drill out the 3 rivets
which held the rear case to the front cover.

I just used the original mounting screws to hold the unit together when I reassembled it.
Care had to be taken with the assembly as the push rod exits the case and could
touch the live contacts at the rear.

The mini starter solenoid with the rubber top looks an easier route till you find a complete original.

By the way my one was filthy dirty inside and badly needed overhauled.

Regards

Bill G
