Large DC motors with field windings instead of permanent magnets present a very heavy load when starting. To prevent fuses blowing, a series of ever smaller resistors are sequentially switched in series with the motor. As the motor picks up speed, a back EMF in opposition to the applied voltage limits the maximum current. When the motor reaches it's running speed the 'starter' is out of circuit.
