I think my cut off switch may turn out to be more of curse than a blessing. I've wired it up as per the instructions, and get nothing from the bottom terminals. The main chunky terminals are fine - it's just the lower spades that don't seem to be doing anything. I ended up bypassing it to check the cranking.
You'll have that baby running again soon

I didn't use a cut off switch so can't help on that one,
