A second thought:

If you're worried about the generator: Usually they are residually
magnetized (this is actually a problem with generators - if they're
magnetized the wrong way, they'll have problems generating the correct
polarity). What you can do is to disconnect all the wiring, then get a
voltmeter and connect it to the generator case and to the big output stud
(where the brown/yellow wire connected). When you spin up the generator by
hand (in the correct direction) you should see some voltage being generated.
