The Mazda B2200 Starter converts battery electricity into torque to start the engine of the truck, ensuring that ignition is achieved by a mere turn of the key. The Starter is supplied by heavy-gauge wiring directly from the battery to a solenoid connected to it, like a gate on a firearm. Upon a signal being triggered by the ignition switch, the solenoid causes a small drive gear to slide forward to engage with the flywheel, at the same time supplying current to the internal armature. Magnetic force is produced by field coils or permanent magnets surrounding the rotating armature; current is made to flow by a combination of brushes and a commutator, and the resulting rotation spins the flywheel until combustion assumes control. All Mazda models since hand-cranking times are based on this electric principle, although it is possible to find trucks of various years which have either a direct drive or a design based on gear reduction. The direct drive model is one-to-one geared, placing the armature in direct contact with the drive gear, which is easier, but the subsequent gear-reduction version places a series of gears between the two so that a smaller motor can provide more torque, less noise on engagement, and better cold-start behavior. Both models come with an overrunning clutch that stops the drive gear on firing the engine to prevent damage. The safety circuits, like a neutral switch on automatics and a clutch switch on manuals, also make the system start only when the Mazda is not in gear, and Mazda B2200 owners can reliably and without any hassles start their Starter every morning.
