Max motoring means just what it says; until the maximum RPM's are reached that are deliverable by the starter under a given voltage or air pressure; typically only a few seconds longer than the minimum specified RPM for introducing fuel.

There's no "max" position to hold; the starter is either on or off. Maximum motoring refers to the maximum speed achievable by starter power alone.
