(1) Generator is used with regulator.
(2) The generator is connected with ground by negative pole. The generator is connected with the
regulator and the battery by negative pole. They can not be connected in wrong way or in counter
direction. Otherwise the generator and regulator may be damaged.
(3) Keep the generator clean and contacts between wires in good condition.
(4) Check the tension of the generator belt regularly and adjust it if necessary.
(5) When the tractor is to be stopped, the key in the preheating starting switch should be moved to “O”
position to disconnect the field coil of the generator and the battery so as to avoid the battery
discharging to the generator.
Note : Checking the generator by short circuit is seriously prohibited, otherwise the silicon rectifier and
the regulator may be damaged.
