For example, if the ammeter
shows discharge when the engine is
stopped and all switches are off it
is quite possible that the points on
the cutout relay have become pitted
or burned and have stuck together.
Better let an electrical expert fix
them. When these points stick to.

battery through the generator and
thus is. wasted. Ammeter discharge
reading will also be Indicated if the
cutout relay windings become short

If the ammeter indicates that the
generator is charging the battery
knr too slowly, it is likely that the
brushes are not making proper con-
tact with the commutator The old
brushes may need refitting or new
brushes may be required, or per-
haps the scommutator requires clean
ing or ,truing. But these are really
questions for your electrical man..
Perhaps mere shifting of the third
brush will cure the trouble.
