BT GENERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING
f. Should the voltage drop below the proper rate, loaded
excitation can be increased to raise this voltage by
repositioning connections on the V?ltage!Hertz
Connection Bar. Repositioning the two leads (red/white
and yellow/white) from {1) to (2) or (3) terminals will
increase the loaded voltage out progressively in that
order.

NOTE:
No-load voltage
may
be effected needing read-
justment with the compound transformer. Do not use
these adjustments to compensate for overload condi-
tions being placed on the generator/engine (inductive-
motor type loads). Loss of generator hertz/speed, the
result of overload, will cause a drop "in voltage output.

The frame ground wire
must be moved when changing
from 115V/50Hz to 230V/50Hz.
The frame groundwire connects
between the neutral stud and the
