Default 1872 Flywheel Magnet Polarity?

After making an ungodly racket and then shearing the flywheel key, I pulled the Mag 18 out of my new 1872 and discovered that two of the flywheel magnets had come unglued. They were side by side, and I didn't really pay much attention to their position before I removed them and cleaned and re-attached them to the flywheel. Now it won't charge properly. I get around 8Vac at idle and maybe 12ish at WOT from the two outer leads of the VR. The tractor charged fine up until the key sheared. Everything else is clean and connected properly. Is there a polarity to the magnets where if I put them in 'backwards' I would get the readings I'm getting now? I'm out of ideas otherwise...

Yes they have to be n/s polarity and spaced properly.

Also check that you didn't damage the wiring/short to ground/or open.

Thanks, guys. I'll pull it back apart and get it right this time. Debating on the JB Weld vs. Gorilla Glue...

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
