Unlike other generators the AC Voltage Regulator in the 002, 003 does not directly drive the exciter. It does it indirectly via the CVT and other components.
Here is an excellent video on how the voltage regulation system works.

The %Load meter doesn't actually display the current at the L3 lug in 120/240 mode.
The %Load meter is actually displaying the current provided by one of the 3 pairs of windings in the gen head.
In 120/240 mode the %Load will display the total load applied to L1 and L3 combined, not just L3.
The...
What I did was just a test markup to see if it's possible. Basically, it's just adding text "notes" to an existing PDF.
I don't have a way of marking up just 1 page and swapping it into other PDFs without a fancy PDF editor.
If it's just a few notes like I did in my test TM in say two TM's per...
I was able to edit a copy of an 002 -34 TM to add the info from your screenshot.
Not too difficult to do in Microsoft Edge PDF viewer and its editing tools.
Also visually check the VR board for burned components.
I've repaired a number of the VR's and besides the three transistors failing I've also found burned out resistors. Obvious charring. The diodes are prone to moisture creeping into them causing them to open up internally. If the diodes...

If you aren't getting any fault lights when the contactor opens on its own under a light load, then I'd suspect an issue in the latching circuit that is supposed to keep the contactor closed.
The diagram below shows the electrical path of the latching circuit. K20-9 gets 24 volts...
This.... Info from invoice for the gen head I purchased.
It's a 4.2 KVA 3,600 RPM 120, 120/240 Gen Head with the adaptor plate for a J609B interface.
It's what I use to convert 831's.
