(1)
Inspect the solenoid bracket.
Check the bend angle of solenoid bracket.
If the bracket is distorted, correct the angle
with proper tool.
.
(2)
Check the wattage
of
load appied
to
the
v
generator.
If
the generator is loaded over the rated
wattage, the engine speed can not be increased.
lMost induction loads such as electric motor
or
electric tools or welding machine require three
to five times large wattage
of
their ratings at
starting.
This starting wattage must not exceed the rated
output of the generator.
(3)
