	GENERATOR RESTORING First thing to do is getting over to the local speedshop and see what they have on the shelves.
Here got some new stuff for our generator. Fields rotor bearings and brushes that should cover most of the renovating.
	Now we can start on the dismantling
The rear end and the housing is off so put armature in the vise and loosen front nut
	and here is the pulley and front end pulled off the armature
Bits n' peices on the workbench lets start to clean and put it together
	Armatures/rotors When you ansembly the generator make shure that you get the right rotor. Check the number and size of the old one and compare with the new one. Some of these generators has been restored 5 maybe 10 times and dont have the parts they supposed to have refered to housing number.
Commutor end or rear end plate Check for bad insulating on the positive brush holder and pull out the old bushing.
	Drive end or front end plate Remove the snapring that holds the bearing and then gently knock it out.
Remove poleshoes and field coils from the housing
	And here you have them on the bench clean the house and poleshoes in solvent then spray the house with paint
Here is the rear end sandblasted and waiting for the bushing and new brushes
	Press in a new bearing in the front end
And put the snapring back in its groove then set the rotor in the vise and slide on the front end and pulley. finish by tighten the nut to desired torq.
	New 12 volts fields goes in to the housing
Connect the wires like the old ones and make sure you have insulating on the right place
	And then when you have put the housing and rear end on it should look something like this.
The moment of truth........ Will it charge
	Hook up both generator and regulator. have the lid of the regulator for easy adjustment
Depending of what readings you get there might be some adjustment on the tounges in the regulator
	Also check the generator for noises
When you have the right readings put on the cover and check again it usually drops down a few points when the cover is on
	Hm blurry photo but the reading say something like 14.0-14.4 volts and 5-10 amps unloaded. Good take it out of the bench and in to the.......
Car..wrench it in place, make sure you have the right belt tension and connect the cables at the right terminals
	Jepp ..in with the regulator connect the cables at the right terminals, and start up the engine
