11. If you are replacing a generator, when purchasing a new unit, take the old one with you for a sample. Inspect the terminals of the new generator - their number, size and location should be the same as the old generator. Pay attention to the designation stamped on the body or printed on the label. The designations of the old and new generators must match.
12. The generator you purchased may not have a pulley, in which case you will need to remove the old pulley and install it on the new generator. Where you will purchase a generator, ask for a pulley to be installed on it.
Installation
