Hi,
I have a Scag Cheetah with a Briggs and Stratton engine. When I've been cutting for a few hours and I stop the engine I often find that the battery does not have enough power to crank the engine to restart. I've taken to putting the battery on charge when I finish. I see the amp meter registering +2V while idling but when I engage the PTO it drops to -2V - I presume the amp meter should be registering positive volts at all time.
Does the amp meter reading point to any particular fault?
Cheers, Peter
