Question on the generator in my 26 Model O

Unknown

Hello all,



I hope you are all doing well. I've been missing from this forum for

some time now, as a change of jobs in early 2007 has me very busy.



I am happy to report that my Hudson saw it's first road trip in 15

years just a month ago. I only drove it up the street to the

neighbors, chatted for awhile as it was running in the drive, and

then drove it back home. Good to know I've gotten a few things

ironed out (only to find a couple of others.)



Anyway, on to my question. I'm working with the guys at "FUN"

Projects trying to get my generator cutouts in line. John told me

that I needed an adjustable 3 brush type generator for his solid

state cutout points to work properly.



So, I've removed my generator, and have verified that I do have a 3

brush generator, but I'm not sure about the adjustable part. I

noticed a screw on the outside of the housing that loosens a plate

that appears to hold the 3rd brush in place, but then I loosen the

plate, I can't seem to move the brush.



Am I missing something, or just not doing it properly? Can anyone

help?



Thanks, and I hope you all have a great "American" holiday this week.
