Kurt,
The M5 is 3 Kva, 120 volt, 3 phase at either 50 or 60 cycles. There's a set of jumpers under the RH generator cover that are connected to the appropiate terminals for either frequency, then the governor is adjusted accordingly.

You can get a manual from http://www.military-info.com, it's TM 9-616. A detailed manual for the Hercules ZXB engine can be obtained from http://www.jensales.com
