Wayne, On a 3 brush genny its current can be increased by adjusting the 3rd adjustable brush closer to the fixed brush but that may not be necessary depending on how many amps shes charging at now and the condition of the battery. With a simple 2 wire cutout relay system theres nuttin you can do or need to do to try n charge that 8 volt battery. If you have plenty of charge indicated on the ammeter, she must be charging okay unless theres a short somewhere or the battery is bad. If all is okay and the battery (NOT a short or loads only) is drawing charging current, the voltage must be greater then the 8.4 volts of the battery. Its NOT what the genny puts out open unloaded that counts, that dont tell ya very much. Its what the genny produces when coupled up to a load (like a battery in need of charge) that counts and if shes drawing amps the battery voltage ought to be rising from 8.4 to 9 and better if all is okay n wired correct that is.
Im NOT a fan of 8 volt systems. John T
