Rewiring a SmartDrive motor for hydro/wind generator

Rewiring a 42 pole 60 series SmartDrive motor into the 7 x 2 coils configuration. Other configurations can be found at:

Generally, the reason why you rewire it is because it lowers the voltage and increases the available amperage, making the generator more suitable for 12v - 24v systems.
If you are planning to rewire one of these Fisher and Paykel/Whirlpool motors, etc., I would recommend doing so on a copper stator as the 36 pole aluminium wired ones are difficult to solder.

I rewired a copper 42 pole stator, but all you really have to do for other stators is to follow the diagram carefully, you should be able to locate the sections and wires on the stator easily; and when snipping a wire, cut in the centre of it (where it connects 2 poles).
