ken1007 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Had my 1935 35 Dictator generator checked out by a re-builder. It is OK but the cut out is not working, his cut out replacement, would not work on the generator. Generator is GCM4802A-4. Any idea where I can order on?

studeboy Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Ken according to my Motors manual that generator was for the 1937 dictator. There were two types of generators provided. If it is a 3rd brush type then it needs cut out number CB-4021. The specs call for an air gap of .010 to .030. The point gap .015 to .045 . If it is not the 3rd brush type then it needs voltage regulator TC-4302A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) There is most of the information for you Ken. Xclnt. According to the National Service Data manual for 1937 Dictator 5A and 6A, TC-4302A is for GCM-4802A and it is of the "Two Charge type". It is a "cutout relay and current regulator (two rate charging control)". The cutout relay has the gap data as for CB-4021, given by Studeboy. The current relay contact gap is 0.005" minimum and the air gap is 0.045" with contacts closed. This generator was used as Special Equipment for a radio-equipped car. Do you have a photo or two of your Dictator please? A friend has recently bought one, with the stick-on trunk and twin sidemounts, made in Canada. They seem to be rare beasts.
