Definitely something you need to install before attempting to start it.
See TB 11-6115-741-24 for the details on how to do the Quad Mod and parts required.
The silver box is part of the Arctic Heater. See TB 9-6115-641-13
The cut wires are part of the magnetic pickup sensor for sensing if the generator RPM is >900 RPM after cranking.
This is to disengage the starter and flash the field of the genhead when starting the set.
