DESCRIPTION
The charging system included a battery, an alternator with a built-in regulator, and the charging indicator light and wire.
The Alternator has built-in diodes, each rectifying AC current to DC current.
Therefore, DC current appears at alternator "B" terminal. In addition, the charging voltage of this alternator is regulated by the battery voltage detection system.
The main components of the alternator are the rotor, stator, rectifier, capacitor brushes, bearings and V-ribbed belt pulley. The brush holder contains a built-in electronic voltage regulator.

- The maintenance-free battery is, as the name implies, totally maintenance free and has no removable battery cell caps.
- Water never needs to be added to the maintenance-free battery.
- The battery is completely sealed, except for small vent holes in the cover.
