Thanks Charlie.  Good to know that.  I believe it does have an ammeter.
If we did hook it up wrong, would we have to re-polarize then generator
after hooking it up correctly?

Thanks,

John

If the battery is hooked up with reverse polarity, John. the machine 
will start and run, but if equipped with an ammeter, it will show on the

discharge side when charging, and charge when discharging.  That is 
always a big clue to reversed hookup.
