Can I connect it to the battery and make it run like a motor?
YES A DC motor and Generator are basically the same thing, put voltage in and it spins, spin it and it puts voltage out......
QUESTION
If it runs is it okay?
MAYBE, if it passes BOTH Motor tests it should charge.
MOTOR TEST: You can Motor test the Gen. If its grounded and you remove the belt and apply hot battery voltage direct to its ARM Post and have the Field Post also dead grounded to frame, it should motor n run well (Armature n Brushes and Commutator likely okay). Then, if you next remove the Fields ground and it speeds up some, the Fields probably good. If it passes both those tests, it should charge, and if not, it may be a wiring or battery or grounding problem. The hot battery voltage may be taken off the VR"s BAT terminal or the starter post or the battery itself for this test.
