I have a 2009 DF 15 15 HP and was just given a kit to convert it to electric start. The kit did not come with any instructions and although it might be straightforward, if anyone has done this or has any documentation / instructions I would be very grateful.
 
I found a complete service manual that appears to have everything i need including a troubleshooting guide! If anyone wants it PM me and I can send it to you. It covers the DF15 2003-2009 vintage
 
Just thought I'd post a follow up. Despite not having any actual instructions, it's fairly straight forward. The kit comes with a new wiring harness that at first looks overwhelming but once you get it's plugs and connections lined up it goes together. Hardest part was getting the bottom bracket around the starter motor. Yes both the electronic and manual neutral safety switches work. As a bonus the kit comes with a regulator rectifier that is easily connected to the new wiring harness and charges at about 7 amps which is more than enough for what I need.
