Testing and polarizing the dynamo
Remove the dynamo from the motorcycle
Connect a temporary jumper from the F terminal to dynamo earth
Connect a wire from negative terminal of the battery to dynamo chassis
Connect a wire from positive battery terminal and touch it on to the D terminal
The dynamo should motor in the correct drive direction ( see arrow on case )
This will determine if the the fi eld coil wires are connected correctly , if the armature does not rotate
in the direction of drive reverse the fi eld wires and try again
When you have completed the test and are confi dent the polarity and rotation is correct, connect to
the regulator as per diagram 2
Diagram 1 testing and polarizing
Diagram 2 negative earth wiring
- DYNAMO HAS STOPPED CHARGING
WHEN DYNAMOS ARE LEFT STANDING FOR EXTENDED PERIODS THEY CAN LOOSE
RESIDUAL MAGNETISM. TO RE NEW THIS FIELD MAGNETISM:
Disconnect the regulator unit
Connect a temporary lead between dynamo F terminal and ground
Connect the positive battery lead and touch to dynamo terminal D for a second
Re-connect your regulator. This should be suffi cient to get your dynamo charging again
