Here are some pictures, the Auto Start box is made by Lister Australia. It is presently configured for single phase 240 volt 50Hz, I may change it later to 415 Volt 3 phase.
I used to have a neighbour who had a single cylinder Lister Generator that had what I am assuming is the same system. It definitely started automatically when you turned on any load ie lights, pump etc, the generator burst into life like magic and went quite when the load was turned off again.
The Engine will run but shuts down after about 1 minute, I did not have time today look more closely as we had a storm coming. A wiring diagram for the Auto Start would be invaluable for making sure it is working correctly and for installing it.
I have followed the steps
