surfaces and bolt heads and nuts.
b. OEM units are shipped with pulley, hardened
washer and locknut installed. Locknut should
be torqued to 163 Nm/ 120 lb. ft.
c. Follow vehicle manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions for belt tension.
2. All cabling, wiring or conduit must be supported
within 305 mm/12 in. of termination on alternator.
3. Choose wire gauge capable of handling maximum
alternator output with no more than 0.4 V drop
(28 V)/0.2 V drop (14 V) on each leg from
alternator to battery.
4. Regulator is furnished with OEM units.
CAUTION
5. Make electrical connections to CEN regulator,
using proper ring terminals.
