Since I'm using classic and my other post has gone to page 2, I'll start a new post. I got that multimeter figured out just enough to be dangerous. I think I've got the generator charging alright, but I need somebody to check my work. The battery was still up OK this morning by the way.
With the engine shut off, I have 12.3 volts on the battery, 0 on the D and F posts on the generator. With the tractor running about 2/3 throttle I have 14.3 at the battery, 17.3 on the D post on the generator, some trivial little .03 on the F post.
My Super 55 has a Delco, I used the same settings on the meter, and that one has a real working amp gauge. I had about 13v with the engine shut off on that one, but with the engine running, it was jumping all over between 18 something and 19 something. No jumping on the British one that I needed to check in the first place, so I'm guessing the British thing must be working better than the Delco? Not that it matters, just need a confidence boost before I try to take it on a drive Saturday.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
