Default Sullivan Dynatron wiring question

Hey Gang,
This is probably a stupid question but I can't seem to find a manual for the Dynatron online anywhere.
I picked up a Dyantron on Ebay and want to run it on 24v. Does it need to be wired for 24v or will it run 12v or 24v with the same wiring setup?

Thanks for the help!

Just hook it to two 12V batteries in series and hang on!

What manual?
According to the original Dynatron box "Heavy Duty, long life, 12 or 24 Volt motor"

One thing to keep in mind..I have the heavy duty 12-24 volt starter ...You will probably find that the crude on/off switch will stick once in awhile..and by stick I mean weld together slightly Its annoying,but not a deal breaker to me..

Oh yeah it will prolly scare you the first time it happens, and you need to pull the clamp off the battery..

Later I just pop off that plastic cover over the switchand pop the contacts apart..

I'd be interested if anyone has a permanent fix for this issue.

Thanks for the help guys.
Interesting they use the same windings for both voltages.
They have apparently redesigned the switch with 2 contacts points to combat the welding on 24v issue. I believe you can purchase the newly designed switch directly from Sullivan. I may have to do this myself. We'll see.

Thanks Again
