Section 4 • Generator Assemblies
• Install all the stator bolts by hand and only torque them
to “finger tight.”
• Then tighten them (Figure 4.34) to the specified torque
as outlined in the torque chart in the appendix of this
guide.
Assembling The Wiring Harness
• Install the protective mesh over the power wires as
shown in Figure 4.36.

• Remove the spark plug from the cylinder head.
IMPORTANT: Before proceeding to any other
step, check to make sure that no internal
obstructions are present. Pull the motor/generator
assembly through (Figure 4.35) several revolutions to
ensure that nothing is internally bound, grating or
rubbing.
