A direct-drive, movable pole shoe design are mainly used for cost reduction rather than electrical or mechanical benefits. This type of starter eliminated the solenoid, replacing it with a movable pole shoe and a separate starter relay.
The Gear Reduction Starters operates as follows:
Operator closed the key-operated starting switch
A small electric current flowed through the starter relay coil, closing the contacts and sending a large current to the starter motor assembly
Pole shoes linked to the starter drive
Spring loaded away from its normal operating position, swung into position
Pinion gear to engage the flywheel ring gear
Closed a pair of heavy-duty contacts supplying current to the starter motor winding
The starter motor cranked the engine until it started.
Overrunning clutch in the pinion gear uncoupled the gear from the ring gear
Operator released the key-operated starting switch, cutting power to the starter motor assembly
