Im not surprised it charged, the F on the Cutout consisted of a resistor to frame ground and if the gennys F was also wired to a LHDB light switch, that placed yet another resistor (if in Low) to frame ground in paralell for an even higher charge rate (less net resistance if 2 in paralell). If the LHDB was in High Charge then the field was essentially dead grounded for the highest charge rate possible.
The F on a cutout relay is for a tractor with no LHDB light switch and lights so the genny can still charge cuz the Field has a resistive ground. If it has the LHDB switch the gennys field wires to it so it gets a resistive ground for low charge and a dead ground for high charge.
I would only use one device for charge control so if it has a LHDB switch Id use it and NOT the relays F terminal.
If it has a mag that generates its own power with no connection to or reliance on any battery or charging system.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
