The diesel electric start two cylinders, all 10 series Waterloo diesels and 20 series diesels to the end of the 1968 model year. They used a 24/12V system but no relay took two pairs of 6V batteries out of parallel where they normally would be for charging. And line the batteries up in series for 24V just for starting.
I don't know where this story keeps coming from? However it's the system Deere should have used.
The Deere 24V systems used a 10 or 18 amp 24V generator which is isolated entirely from the tractor frame and separate + and (-) cables run from it back to the batteries.
The starter also was also totally isolated from the chassis and only gets it's 24V + and - from the two heavy cables feeding it.
