StartMaster Introduces

Series Of Air Starters With

Built-in Solenoid Valve

StartMaster's new air starter with built-in solenoid valve saves time and the cost of extra hoses and fittings.

StartMaster has introduced a se- ries of air starters with a 12-volt or 24-volt solenoid valve mounted di- rectly on the starter. This permits the starter to be activated electrical- ly from a switch on the dash or con- trol panel. It also eliminates much of the plumbing and extra space required with ordinary air starter installations. A single hose from the air tank is all that is needed. The relay valve, lubricator, muffler and now the solenoid valve are all built into StartMaster starters, thus sav- ing time and the cost of extra hoses and fittings.
