switch detail -- Off, Run, Preheat, Start

I got the same problem. I just bought a Perkins Ignition Switch 2846129 and it is a Off - Run - Preheat - Start switch. I think the switch itself has five termanals with one or two of them double. I'm not certain as it's on the boat and I'm at home.
I also cannot find a schematic or anyplace else and would like to know where the many different wires go to this switch. I've got a Perkins 4-108 in a boat. Before the old ignition key froze and I had to buy another, it also had an alarm (maybe a low oil pressure alarm) hooked to it. I put a temporary ig. switch in till I could get the original online. In the meantime, I lost all original info that I had written down before removing all the wires.
any help would be great
