Specifications for that unit as as follows: Table 2T-Standard Regulator Tractor Type, Test Specifications (CIRCUIT A) Regulators for which specifications are listed in this table must be checked and adjusted according to the procedures in Bulletin 1R-111. These regulators have an internal wiring circuit which is quite different from standard automotive regulators and require special testing methods. All electrical checks and adjustments be made with the regulator at operating temperature and on a closed circuit. If voltage settings are found to be within the ranges given in this table. the regulator is operating satisfactorily and need not be disturbed. When settings are found to be outside the ranges, the regulator should be replaced or, in an emergency, adjusted to the specified values. Regulator Number 1118780 Service Bulletin Number 1R-111 Spec Number 1504 Voltage Regulator Air Gap .075 in. Cutout Relay Air Gap .020 in. Cutout Relay Point opening .020 in. Current Relay Closing Voltage 5.9 - 7.0, Adjust to 6.4 Voltage Regulator Setting 6.6 - 7.2, Adjust to 6.9 [Reply]  [No Email]

The cutout should be set so pullin is just above battery voltage, and cutout is about 1 to 3 amps discharge. The gaps are important, but manufacturers use very different sizes, so there is no way to give that info. Jim [Reply]  [No Email]

It seems replacements are made in China or Mexico and being new out of the box doesn't mean anything anymore. I'm into a Farmall 240 restoration and trying hard to find quality items with limited success. I can have both the starter and generator rebuilt at a local facility who does remarkable work but he has a large inventory of original components for these older tractors. Any suggestions or places to contact would be most welcome, Hal. [Reply]  [No Email]
