Need help with generator head

<< < (2/2)

Mtour:
  yup outside collimator was nice and green, cleaned all the electrical connections and the collimators with steel wool.
 Was able to spin the generator up to 700rpm with a drill, the larger wires were putting out 4vac and the small two at 2vac.

Mtour:

 Was able to get 22vac at 600rpm with applying 22vdc to the two small wires going to the exciter. Applied 12dc to two of the larger wire, the motor rocked an inch then locked, i'm guessing  dc needs to be fed to the exciter at the same time as the large wires to get the generator to act as a starter.
