Okay, so right off, I confess that I am not mechanically inclined, so I am hoping that some kind soul(s) will make fun of me under his/her breath and not out loud when I ask this question. I am trying to install a starter relay kit on my Kubota L3800H, but I cannot find the solenoid. I have searched online, and I simply cannot find any diagrams which show where the darn thing is located.
Any help anyone can give in terms of a diagram or explanation would be greatly appreciated.

These parts illustration and photo will help.

The starter is attached to the engine close to where the clutch housing is located but from the opposite side from where your feet rest.

The red arrow is pointing to the solenoid terminal which activates the starter.

Wow! Thank you!!! You are great! That was not only perfect, but an extremely fast reply! I appreciate your help more than you can know. I will give my kit installation a shot Wednesday when I have time off work.
