Re: Batt. cutoff switch

["Mark J. Bradakis" <mjb@phase.cs.utah.edu>]

If you put the cutoff switch on the non-chassis side, the alternator or
generator can still be turning enough to keep the ignition system
energized, so the motor may keep running.  If the cutoff switch has
connections for also breaking the alternator or generator circuit, then
it can go on that side.
