Technical data

2. Alternator (50 amp 12 volt)
The alternator is a three phase AC generator with a diode rectifier and is driven by the crankshaft
through a pulley and a V-belt.
It can also be roughly divided into rotor and stator sections. The rotor section consists of a rotor, ball
bearings and pulley with a fan, while the stator section consists of an armature, front and rear
brackets, fin complete and brushes. Three diodes (+) and three diodes (-) are fixed on the fin heat
sink.
3. Glow Plug
The glow plug employed is a sheathed type; its
construction is as illustrated.
NOTE: In addition to the conventional type of glow
plug, a new quick-heat glow plug has come in use
for engines of late. Be careful not to confuse them
with each other for proper handling and part
replacement. It is not recommended to use the
quick-heat type. See table below.
