I have an M4-30.hold the glow plug 30-60 seconds then press the starter button while still holding the glow plug button depressed.I think that's what the manual says to do and that is what I do to start.in warmer weather I don't hold the glow plug quite as long but I don't think my M4-30 will start at all unless both buttons are depressed at the same time.maybe my panel is wired up differently than yours

One person said to hold the glow plug button for 5-10 seconds and then start. Another said 30 seconds on the glow plug and then leave the button pushed while also pushing the starter. The latter worked when I was first starting the engine after the winter while plugged into shore power. Yesterday I started it for the first time without shore power and found that the starter did not kick at all if I started while also holding the glow plug button. Started find when I let go the glow plug button. What is the "normal" starting procedure with a cold engine in cool weather. Warm weather? Warm engine?
