box by the strip underneath and is the DYNAMO OUTPUT .
"F" is now the DYNAMO FIELD terminal.
8.
To test the dynamo, temporarily join "D" and "F" together and
connect to battery +ve. Connect battery -ve to the body of the
dynamo and it should run as a motor in the same direction as on
the motorcycle.
9.
The K- Tec unit can be located in the Miller regulator housing once
the old cartridge is removed. Make suitable holes for the mounting
stud and for the wires (rubber grommet required). Purists may wish
to cut off the mounting stud (its not an earth) and secure the K- Tec
unit with sticky pads, adhesive velcro or other means inside the
cover and bring the wires out through the base.
10.
Refit the dynamo and regulator housing to the motorcycle. Use
8 Amp rated auto cable to make the following connections to the
K- Tec coloured wires:
Colour Terminal Definition
Green "F" Dynamo Field
Red Battery +ve via ammeter
Yellow "D" Dynamo output
Black Earth
The joints to the K- Tec unit MUST BE SOLDERED. Use heat shrink
insulating tubing to make a neat and permanent insulating cover
over each joint.
It is ESSENTIAL that the black lead makes a good earth. If in doubt,
run the earth lead to the battery -ve connection to the frame.
Run the red lead to the opposite terminal on the ammeter to the one
which the battery +ve lead runs to.
11.
Re-connect the battery (fully charged), +ve first, -ve last. Start the
engine, turn on the full beam headlamp with auxiliary lights and
above about 2000 rpm the dynamo output should meet the
electrical load and show a small charge. With the lights off,
I measure the voltage across the battery with a good quality
voltmeter with the engine running at 2000-3000 rpm. The reading
should be 7 to 7.5 volts.
