Are you SURE you have an "as original" 8N?
If so, first of all it will be (+) ground, 6 Volt.
You polarize the generator by momentarily jumpering between the "BATT" terminal on the voltage regulator and the "GEN" (may be labeled "ARM") terminal on the regulator.
Do this BEFORE initial startup after a long period of non-use or repairs to the charging system. It's an "old mechanic's wive's tale" that polarization is necessary just because the battery was disconnected, then reconnected.
If it happens to have the older style system with a simple cutout, simply jumper between the two terminals on the cutout.

For 'most all operations, set the lever pointing UPWARD, which is "position control"
One of the few exceptions is moldboard plowing, for which the lever gets lowered to it's forward position for "draft control" which varies the operating depth of the plow in response to soil conditions ("draft").
