Years ago I repaired the charging system on a 1948 Ford the cutout points in the voltage regulator fused and burnt out the generator. With the back feed from the voltage regulator the generator was trying to act like an electric motor but it obviously wasn’t powerful enough to roll the engine and overheated. I would suggest leaving the fan belt off of the generator when connecting the battery. If the generator tries to turn you have a problem.
