Don't know if I will get anybody to answer or not but hear goes. Years ago a guy gave me an old aircraft gen that was made into a welder. It had a v-4 Wisconsin and belt driven. I think it said 24 volt,300 amp on it. Only Have the gen left anymore. Think after all the years I would like get I going again just for a project.1 Could I run it with a less bulkeyer engine that used to drive it 2.what hp. 3. When it was belt driven it ran in the same direction as engine, or could it be direct driven which would make it run the opposite way it use to.4 What kind or rated rheostat would one use.5.what rpms, and can anyone send a sketch a diagram of how it would be wired from generator and through what components to ground and shooten iron. Suppose I will get scolded for asking all this.
