I just put a new round can cut out on it yesterday also, what would be causing the generator to get that hot with the tractor not running? Jason [Reply]   [No Email]

Iff'n you don't, the cut-out will NEVER disconnect yer genny when yer engine stops and you will HEAT yer genny too HOT to comfortably put a gloved hand on it. Me? I arc-spark the 2-terminal roundcan cut-out with a pair of pliers handles. You can us bailin' warr iff'n you want. You can re-polarize as many times as it takes to feel warm'n'fuzzy ...charged... .......the charged Dell   [Reply]  [No Email]

Sometimes a side-whack with wooden handle will jar the brushes loose. Sometimes the relay pivots gitt stuck or fall outta their frame. Ain't NO LAW to prevent you from disassembling yer roundcan fer lookie-look. The Model-A guys use a solid state voltage regulator inna roundcan with a Ford logo stamped. Look up "Fun Products". With the solid state voltage regulator, adjust yer 2N 3rd-brush screw fer maximum output. .......the charged Dell   [Reply]  [No Email]

I'll bet the generator motors. Solution - unhook the battery when sitting or replace the cut out.   [Reply]  [No Email]
