I have the Bosch info on the ARKF generators.
Reversing rotation involves swapping the field coil leads (red & blue) and changing the oil slinger hub to one with the correct thread rotation.
Regulator adjustment requires a voltmeter hooked up between ground and the external terminal block of the regulator base.
Adjust voltage at 1000 rpm to 6.0 to 6.3 v by turning the adjustment nut. No external load applied.
Run at 2500 rpm, adjust voltage to 6.3 - 6.4v using the reverse current screw (the one just above the adjusting nut).
Connect three 21 candle power lamps in parallel between terminal block and ground and recheck regulating voltage as outlined above.
Thankyou Old Magnet, just what I needed to know. Now to get it done. Dick
The instructions for reversing the rotation is printed inside the V/R cap. At least on mine.

I have seen that in the past but not on ones I have now. Found out Oz Dozer had put complete manual instructions in the archives several years ago.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
