Most tractors will run without the generator / altnerator hooked up as long as there is enough juice in the battery. I know on older Olivers they will not run without a gen hooked up, BTDT.
As for the generator, it can be switched to neg. ground fairly easily. They can also be stepped up to 12v if desired. I have three that way and don't have $100 in all three, includiong being rebuilt.
If you have your gen switched to neg ground you will need to reverse the wires on the amp meter. Lights don't care if they are neg or pos grd but will have to be changed out if stepped up to 12v. Also will need to change voltage regulators unless like on two of mine that have the regulator attached & then the guy switched them as well
