Voltage Sensing Relay; 6-L 2. Generator Reassembly - Kohler l654 Service Manual

2. Connect brush leads in series with 12-Volt battery and
DC ammeter as shown in Figure 6-37.
3. Ammeter reading should approximate battery voltage
divided by specified rotor resistance (Table 6-1).
4. Record ammeter reading.
5. Start generator set and run at NO load.
6. Observe ammeter with unit running. If current increases
considerably, a running short in the rotor has been detected.

erator output, and disconnect excitation current from the
battery to the regulator and field (V.B.U.), and energize the
3CR (interlock relay). If there is no AC output; the relay
will not energize, and the unit will shut down when the
start-stop switch is released from the start position.

1. On the 3.5kW, apply antiseize compound to the rotor
threads (Figure 6-39). Thread the rotor onto the drive
shaft, and tighten by hand.
2. On the 4SkW, 55kW, 7kW or 7.5kW, apply antiseize
compound to the crankshaft stub (Figure 6-40). Install the
rotor onto the crankshaft with the thru bolt. See Table 6-2
for torque value.
