IMPORTANT - GUARANTEE AND INSTRUCTION This Replacement Unit will give you maximum service when properly installed. Regulators are guaranteed for ninetv days against defective workmanship and materials. Regulators are bench tested and set for correct charging rate according to original factory specifications. DO NOT TAMPER WITH ADJUSTMENTS. The fact that you are replacing the old regulator indicates the possibility that some trouble may exist in the electrical system that caused the old regulator to fail. To avoid damaging the replacement regulator follow these instructions carefully.
