[8n 9n]

Hi, can someone help me out by pointing me in the right direction or scan onto the comptuter what the instructions for the 12 volt conversion looked like, mine have gone missing. Thanks, Ben

The 12-volt conversion on my 9N tractor (done before I got it) looks simple.

The generator is replaced by an alternator, which required a change in the mounting bracket. The alternator has a built-in regulator. The one used is a 1980's Chevy Pickup alternator, and it has a 1-wire output. There is a jumper wire on it, which is essential, and a diode in the line whose white band is oriented toward the alternator.

The coil was changed to a 12-volt model, but I understand 6-volt coils can be used with the proper resistor.

The starter appears to be original, 6-volt, but I can't be sure.

There are no lights on my tractor, so bulbs didn't need to be changed.

Of course, the battery was changed, and the new one doesn't fit the original hold-down, so a bungee cord holds it in place.

As far as I can tell, that's it.
