Clip shows how to manually start a Bukh DV24 marine diesel engine using the starting handle.
This particular engine is installed on a Westerley Griffon sailboat.
Manual starting is useful to know if you are off a leeshore in a gale and the batteries have gone flat or the starter motor has packed up.
It takes three attempts to start, but it does finally start.
