Part Description
Cycle Electric, 12-V LO generator. Built-in regulator. Black
Low Output. With built-in electronic voltage regulator. This is a special Low Output version, that offers reduced charging voltage. Designed to be used for models with in-tank (horse shoe) batteries. Hot batteries have an increased chemical reaction and therefore draw a higher amperage which, in extreme situations, can cause overcharging and a boiling battery. The 926745 low amperage model will help prevent this. High quality USA made. Custom Low Output replacement for OEM 29975-65B generator. Note: See 926727 for replacement Low Output electronic regulator only. Note: Will also fit 36-84 H-D when converting to 12 Volt. When replacing 65B generator (82-E84 Hitachi), add H-D #31035-58 (MCS 555773) oil deflector. Same gear can be re-used. Tech tip: Generator polarizing. With the motor off connect the 'F' terminal to ground and momentarily flash the 'A' terminal with positive. Remove ground from 'F' terminal. If you have properly installed a working regulator it will turn on and ground the 'F' terminal in which case you will not need to use an external ground. Caution! Do not flash the 'F' terminal. This will damage the regulator. Do not connect the battery to the Field (F terminal) as this will polarize the generator backwards. Generators in general don't forget their polarization so it is not necessary to polarize a generator from Cycle Electric Inc. unless it was connected to a battery backwards or inadvertently polarized backwards after it left the factory. Only after a long time period generators can struggle to come up and polarization can be a good idea.
