Group,

I have an IO-360 with Slick Mags. I would like to know if I can use three
toggle switches to control start/operation.

1. Left Mag (Off-On)
2. Right Mag (Off-On)
3. Starter (Off-Momentary On) - This one will have a switch guard on it too.

Anything wrong with this setup?

No, it's ok. I use a slight modification of that setup. I use double pole
switches for my mags such that the starter switch will only function if the
left mag is on and the right mag is off. This assumes that your impulse
coupler is on your left mag.

Jeff,

That is the set-up I used in my Long-EZ-except I have one electronic
ignition and one mag. I really like the set-up, but took the switch guard
off as they looked too out-of-scale for the panel. I used Eaton switches
MS35058-22/8801K22 for the mag/EI and MS35058-30/881K17 for the start
switch. The panel layout has them in a horizontal row with, from the left,
the Lmag, EI, start, alt, bat. These are located separate from the rest of
the switches. I used all 88 series switches to keep the look uniform. If
you would like a pic, let me know.

Thanks,

Nope- basically same as outlined on Bob's Z figures- I used one of the start
buttons with circular guard around it (from B&C) on far left side of panel.
This is on a -6A and the button is just under the canopy deck- hard to hit
unless you really want to...

shows the arrangement.
