Default Pe-95-f Signal Corp Generator

I have a 1952 4 cylinder Willie engine on a Ohan Generator. It produces electricity at idel, but when you put a load on it the engine dies down and the voltage drops then the engine will not recover..... Any suggestions?????

Also looking for a manual.

Sounds like the governor is not working. Disconnected, rusted, linkage bound up?

Engine should be turning at 1850 or so with no load and not drop below 1750 with a load.
