I have 2 terminals on the outside of the case of the dynamo marked 'F' and 'D'. To which terminals do these 2 normally connect inside of the dynamo? I assume they run to the 2 main brush terminals but which way round? This dynamo was in pieces when I got it and Woodrow doesn't show the connections. On the pic below the F is to the left but how do you know which of the 2 brushes it goes to. One is on a metal bracket and the other is on a sort of Bakelite one.
I have 2 starting handle nosecones to weld up and then I can get onto making the 2 drop links for the lowered suspension, assuming I can find enough steel on the shelf.
Thanks.

Can I safely assume that the Earth brush is the one on the steel bracket and the 'D' brush is on an insulated bracket. Sorry if this sounds like a silly question but I don't want to kill the dynamo today! Page 205 of the Green Book shows a picture but mine is covered with dirty finger marks.
