CAPACITOR START COMPRESSORS
Follow Split Phase procedure except for the two YELLOW lead con-
nections. These leads are connected to the starting capacitor as
shown-above. The capacitor can be any value and voltage equal to or
greater than the original supplied with the compressor. A 200 MFD
220V capacitor will start most of the compressors in use.
ACCESSORIES
Model 2605 Test Lead Kit provides Four (4) 30 in. heavy duty test
leads with colored insulated clips on each end, a 6 ft. power cord with
male plug on one end and insulated clips on the other, and a 220V
adaptor cord with a female receptacle on one end and insulated clips
on the other.

INSTRUCTIONS
FOR MODEL
2601 QUIK-START
HERMETIC
COMPRESSOR
STARTER
Model 2601 Quik-Start will start all single phase compressors up to
5HP—110, 220, or 277 VAC. Read these instructions carefully
before using the Quik-Start.
WARNING
This device is intended for use only by qualified air conditioning
and refrigeration service technicians. Use extreme caution when
using this unit. Make sure the system being tested is disconnected
from power before connecting the Quik-Start. Do not use fuses rat-
ed higher than 30A. Read all safety precautions carefully before
using.
Before using the Quik-Start, check the compressor for grounded
windings. Connect an ohmmeter from the COMMON terminal to
the compressor case. If the ohmmeter shows any reading less than
infinity (open), the compressor is defective and the Quik-Start
should not be used.
Compressor amperage draw can be measured by placing a clamp-on
ammeter around the WHITE Quik-Start lead.
