6 volts Glenn. I have one of those without the prop.
Rather than getting deep into turning the shaft, Why not square off the face of the pulley flange? If the basic dynamo needs too much altering the whole original simple idea gets out of control.
I get now, in looking at it mounted on the tractor it is not obvious that the outer half of the pulley is just a cupped washer. Don't know whether it matters which direction that it rotates since it is an AC output. On the tractor the rotation is counter clockwise. Opposite direction from the airplane prop.
Thanks Web, I thought that was the case.Rotation direction doesn't matter. The AC output will still have to be rectified.

Just hook it up to a main. Taxi around a lot before flight.
