In winter, the engine is difficult to start, and the use of the starting motor is frequent, such as the lack of starter power, which will further increase the difficulty of starting the engine. Practice has shown that in the summer, if the starter has a slight failure and the power is slightly insufficient, starting the engine may be very smooth, but in the winter, it will become difficult to start, or even can not start. Therefore, the starter should be thoroughly maintained to keep all parts of the starter clean and dry, especially the brush and the commutator should be in good contact.

1. Check and adjust the electrolyte density. The electrolyte density can be properly adjusted to prevent the accident of freezing and cracking of the battery shell due to the low electrolyte density.

2. Increase the generator charging voltage. Due to the increase of battery discharge at low temperature, the amount of generator charging must be increased, and the limit voltage of the regulator can be adjusted appropriately. In general, the limit voltage of the regulator in winter is 0.6v higher than that in summer.

3. Maintain the starting motor. In winter, the engine is difficult to start, and the use of the starting motor is frequent, such as the lack of starter power, which will further increase the difficulty of starting the engine. Therefore, the starter should be thoroughly maintained to keep all parts of the starter clean and dry, especially the brush and the commutator should be in good contact.

4, strengthen the heat preservation of the battery. In order to prevent the overcooling of the battery from freezing and affecting the starting performance, a sandwich insulated battery box can be made for the battery in winter to increase the temperature of the battery.
