Well I'm rounding the bend on the 40' sport scout restoration. I need a little generator lesson on the 40' sport scouts....I have a few questions in regards to the generator and cut out regulator. Can any damage be done to the generator and cut out relay if no polarizing is done prior to testing its output on the bike? what kind of oil goes in the oil hole, and how much?What kind of generator issues do I need to potentially brace myself for? Also I see there are two spots on the base of the cutout for wires to mount. I ran one to the generator post, and the other spot I ran a ground to the frame, and obviously the outer one on top to the ignition. However, no one has told me if I have to be selective or particular on either of the two locations on the base of the cut out. Also, does anyone have a checklist of steps or things to make sure to do or avoid, just prior to attempting to start a 40' scout after a fresh restoration? I want to try to cover any unforseen dangers prior to jumping in, thanks for the help.
