Thanks, Roger, for the documentation. I am usually to picky, and get easily
carried away. When the author says that the “pole shoes” need to be polarized,
he is just a little bit off, but like you said, it is “fairly simple.” It
is actually the screws that hold the pole shoes in place that are being
polarized, since they are steel screws. The Pole Shoes are made of Iron,
and will not hold the magnetism, but will strengthen any magnetic field around
them. Otherwise, the electrical field that causes them to become magnets and
start inducing current flow in the Armature could not be shut off by the
regulator.

Here’s a fairly simple explanation of the process and theory:

Also, are you polarizing the regulator when you replace it or hook
up a new battery? It only takes a second with a jumper wire.
There is no such thing as “polarizing” a regulator; the part that is being
polarized is the generator. It has steel screws to hold the field coils,
and while the center coil hold-downs are iron (which is not magnetic), those
screws are steel, and they will become the magnets to create the intial energy
to get the system working.
