Default JAP Generator

I picked up two 1250w 36v JAP Generators at the weekend.
The data on the plate gives the year of manufacture as 1943 and a model 5 engine? Both sets were rebuilt during either 1960/61 at 32 or 34 base workshops.

Wireless for the Warrior list this set as a general purpose set (battery charging?) with similar sets being manufactured by Villars and Douglas amongst others.

The sets are mounted in a torsion bar mounted anti-vibration mounting within the frame. Presumably the mounting frames and Generator are identical with only the engines differing.

Does anyone have manual for this set or a plug for the generator. The second set stripped down to its major component items is also available for sale or exchange for other war-time generators.
