Bought a new electronic cutout relay from DJS tractor parts. Stupid question but before I go hooking this up has anyone else ever used ones of these ? I am in need of redoing my electrical system. Love the mice. Since I am I will also going back to the original light switch. It pulls in and out fine,little dusty/dirty. Replaced the field resistor with a new one. As for the wiring do I wire everything up according to the diagram in my book. The only difference is my WD has a distributor ignition and not the magneto. Any tips tricks or anything else I should do when I rewire this ol working gal up so she runs. Thought about just splicing and taping the wires but I figured I might as well do it right. I have a new wiring harness from DJS as well(not the real expensive on. just the basic) Bought a real expensive one before and the wire coverings just did not last. is there a more complete wiring diagram that shows wires on the gennie as the book shows 2 wires but I have 2 post on the new cutout and 2 post on the gennie. Just wanting to do it right as so I have no issues. Trying to keep her in somewhat a original looking order. She is a working show tractor in all her glory. Sorry for the novice questions. I have rewire her once before but just curious if anyone has any better/easier lasting ideas. Thank you.

If it's like this one, the cutout should be marked. Short wire goes from A terminal on generator to A or Arm. terminal on cutout. Harness wire from there goes to Ammeter. Second harness wire goes from F terminal on generator to resistor terminal on headlight switch.

It is a diode in a box and filled with epoxy. I had one go bad but the others I have are good. Just follow the directions. ------------- CA, WD, C, 3 Bs, 2 Gs, WC, I-400, 914 |

IMHO, if a cut-out needs replacing, it's a great time to change it to a voltage regulator. You will also need to change the light switch to a simple on/off switch. It's a great modification to a 6 volt system!
