OT - 12V Delco Generator motor test

What are the correct electrical connections to motor test it?
Ground the Field and battery positive to ARM?
It is 12V obviously, and I assume it is negative ground.

Royse,
A generator can be either + or - depending on how you "flash the field" and as such you can test it either way, to see if it turns. The one I sold you was a charger for the battery and a starter for the briggs and stranton one cyclinder. I got a D/R 12 volt on 2N and now 12 v coil, but + ground.
Have you found the Dearborn sickle guards? Got one working good and mowed the sweet peas flowers and lane and ditches.
Made 8 inch extensions, out of pipe welded, as the Ford 600 lifts 1/2" more than N's. Bought a 1 3/8" PTO drive shaft with 7/8" X 3/4" square and had my friend machine it to female 3/4" X 3/4". Now "quick coupler" with plastic shield (keeps cut hay from rapping around shaft). One more to restore for winter. Then 2 plow to work on.
Used the dirt scoop to make a drive thru over ditch. Now get fire wood out of woods.

Royse,

Here's how I motor my 6v generator with externally grounded Field . . . on the bench:
If the generator has externally grounded Field, which being Delco it probably does. (grounded brush has only it's own lead connected to it)

Connect a jumper from from Field terminal to Generator Frame
Battery Neg to Gen Frame
Touch Positive battery to Armature terminal.
