Default need schematic for onan 70 kw genset

Bought a 70KW onan diesel genset minus exciter and electical panel. It is a Model 70.0DL6TB-15R/27478B 3600 RPM 70KW single and 3 phase generator. SN is D850759427. All connections are in good condition and still labeled but I have no idea how to connect a new exciter or where to get one and how to rewire the external recepticals for single phase 120/240 and 3 phase 240/460. I plan on donating this for use to run the electrical pumps for a small rural water system which are 3 phase 20 hp 230v pumps as a backup during power outages and the office equipment in attached bldg. Can you tell me where I can get the electrical information and perhaps a manual for this genset. Onan does not list this generator any longer. I guess it is mid 80's vintage. Thanks for the help.

Ricky i have found that when you need info from Onan it helps to find someone who knows what they are talking about. I have talked to people who will tell you that no info is available just so they don't have to look it up. I recently got some info on a generator i have that was made by Onan when they were owned by studebaker. I also got info on a old military engine after I was told they had no info on the unit. I suggest you contact the person below and be sure to give her the model,serial, #s as well as any other info you have. If she is unable to help you don't give up the info is there somewere. As in the case of my military engine i was told there was no info available by my local onan dealer but after a call to Onan head office in minneapolis, minnsota i got the info i needed. Good luck on you search

Joseph Turrisi person to contact is Sandy at sandy.m.linaker@cummins.com

p.s. when you contact her she should be able to help you but it will take a couple of days but don,t give up. She was able to send me copies of the three manuals for my 3 phase gen for free
