Alternator
General description
The alternator is driven from the crankshaft pulley by a single belt. To remove and to fit the drive belt, see
Operation 12-7. There is no need to check the tension of the belt as the tension is set automatically.
The Prestolite AC5RS 12 volt and 24 volt alternators have solid state regulators fitted at the rear. The
regulators of both alternators are sealed and repair is not possible.
Cautions:
l
To prevent damage to the diodes, the transistors and the resistors, the precautions given below must be
followed:
l
Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is in operation. This will cause a voltage surge in the
alternator charge system, which will immediately cause damage to the diodes or to the transistors.
l
Do not disconnect an electrical wire before the engine is stopped and all electrical switches are in the ‘off’
position.
l
Do not cause a short circuit by the connection of electrical wires to the wrong terminals. The correct
electrical wire must be connected to the correct terminal. A short circuit or wrong connection that gives
reverse polarity will immediately cause permanent damage to the diodes and to the transistors.
l
Do not connect a battery into the system until it has been checked for correct polarity and voltage.
l
Do not check for current flow with a spark contact as damage can be caused to the transistors.
