Amperage Output Test
- Ensure drive belt is in good condition and properly tightened. Connect charging system load tester in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Start and run engine at 2000-3000 RPM and apply load until generator output levels off.
- Record maximum generator output current. See GENERATOR OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS TABLE for output values. If generator output is 10- 20 percent of rated output amperage, generator output is okay. If generator does not produce rated output, go to VOLTAGE OUTPUT TEST .
