620/720 Charging System

Recommended Posts

The charging system on my 620's CCKB engine failed when the flywheel magnets let go. I have been able to obtain a flywheel with good magnets but have not yet found a stator.

My brother has suggested replacing the charging system with a compact alternator such as one used on a Yanmar engine. It is apparently small enough that it could be fabricated to run off of the belt between the engine and the drive train.

Has anyone tried something like this?

Or does anyone have any ideas on refurbishing the CCKB's charging system?

I have put Toyota alternators on two of my Powermax's. In my opionion, it is the only way to go if the original charging system has problems. Onan electrical parts are very expensive, if you can find them.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
