AMMETER
The ammeter is mounted on the instrument
panel and indicat~s the rate of generator
charge or battery discharge to the electrical

Inspection
Inspect all wires and make sure they are free
from cracks, broken wires or terminals and
free from deterioration. They should also be

Assembly
See the wiring diagram for the connections
which must be made to complete the wiring
system. Keep all connections clean, bright
and tight.
Removal
The headlight is mounted on the front frame
of the tractor and may be removed if the
headlight wire is disconnected at the front
frame. If the wire is to be removed from the
torque tube, it is advisable to place an exten-
sion on the wire that may be left in torque
tube when the light wire is drawn out. With
this extra extension it is possible to replace
the head light wire without any difficulty.
HEADLIGHT AND TAIL LIGHT
Both lights use single contact 6 - 8 volt bulbs.
The headlight is 32cclndle power and the tail-
light is 15 candle power. With the single con-
tact bulbs, it is necessary to have all the
lamps and tractor parts which are used to
complete the circuit, clean, bright and tight.
Dull reflectors cause inefficient lighting.
The reflectors should be replaced if dull or
polished by the use of lamp black or silver.

cloth that will not scratch the reflector. Al-
ways use a new gasket between the lamp and

swikh. GENERATOR
Removal
Remove the capscrew from the generator
brace and the wires from the field terminal
and ammeter or cutout terminals of the gen-
erator. Remove the two bolts from the lower
pivot point or the two nuts attaching the gen-
erator mOWltingbracket to the cylinder block.
Inspection
Refer to the general section of the Service
G-ll
Manual for details on the generator. The
generator should be repaired only by an
authoriz'ed service station.
The generator is driven by the fan belt. To
adjust tension, loosen clanlp screw and move
generator away from cylinder block. See
"fan belt".
