Hatraco, Kineteco’s European distributor, have successfully started an electronically governed 7.4 litre AGCO diesel engine with a Kineteco spring starter. When it comes to electrically governed engines, starting protocol requires a minimum cranking RPM and/or number of revolutions and therefore spring starters might not be the first choice. Kineteco spring starters require no external power, are easy to use and start also electronically governed engines.  

After extensive testing and the successful launch with Kineteco’s customers in Germany, we have added the SZH+ Spring Starter to our model range. This is a high powered Z-Drive power spring starter with 50% more starting energy than SZHS/SZHR models. The SZH+ will  comfortably start engines up to 20L.
