Best Answer

The Magneto is putting out an AC current which will have to be rectified into DC in order to charge the battery. The voltage rectifier is installed between the magneto and the battery, but the current then may also need a regulator installed so that the battery being charged does not explode.

I suppose you're referring to a riding mower. As you didn't specify the age, make, etc, this will be an educated guess. If the mower is kept in a controlled environment, such as a garage with heat during the winter months, the battery should hold charge for years. If it is kept in a shed outside, then you'll probably need to charge the mower's battery every spring. All you need is a battery charger with jumper cables. Make sure it is capable of charging you're mower's battery. The battery is charged by a generator or magneto. It is located under the flywheel.
