The 41 H was, as CNKS stated, 6V positive ground from factory. It also had a cut out controlled by light switch instead of a voltage regulator from factory. 6V or 12V, pos. or neg. ground will operate starter just fine. Just don't turn the starter over very much at one time when using 12 volt. Most of these electrical systems have been monkeyed with and changed over the years and are no longer like factory origin. But yet, there are an occasional few that you will run across that still have the system like it was from factory. If somebody ever done some converting of the original electrical system, it is merely a guess as to what they actually did. There is to many possibility's to guess how your electrical system currently is. You, or somebody who knows, will have to inspect the eletrical system to see what you actually got and how it is currently set up. For the time being, I would disconnect all of the electrical (lights, generator, regulator/cut out, and so on. Only hook starter and starter button up to battery. If equiped with an original 6V distributor, you can hook that up along with the key switch but make sure you got a reducer to 6V if using 12V ahead of the coil. You will have to recharge battery by way of battery charger. Ussually get around 6 starts on 6V and about twice that on 12V before battery needs charged. If you have hand crank, you can hand crank it if battery is to weak to turn it over. If any juice left in battery at all, you can run along time on the juice that is left, you just have to hand crank. When you find out what you got for an electrical system and how it is suppose to be hooked up, then you can hook it up with out damaging anything. I can't tell you that part without knowing what you got. Might be original, might not.
