Look for other clues, like lamps, coil, etc. Lamps will have a number that can be crossed, some have the voltage on them.
If it is still six volt, it should be positive ground.
Since it has a coil, need to check that out anyway to see what you have. A 12v coil set up will have 3 to 5 ohms across the terminals, a 6 volt will have 1.5 to 2 ohms. Disconnect it to get a true reading. If there is a resistor, leave it connected and test through the resistor to the opposite terminal.
I believe the 12v generator will work as a 6 volt if the regulator is set for 6 volts. Someone better check me on this though...
If it will run, start it up, bring the throttle about half way, check the voltage across the battery, see what you get. If it's charging around 8 volts, you're good to go. If it's trying to push 12-13 v to the 6 v battery, it is set for 12v.

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: How to Remove a Broken Bolt - by Staff. Another neat discussion from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
