As John said, this Oliver has a positive ground/ earth connection.
By polarizeing the amp meter, do you mean that if i connect it wrong the needle in the gauge will move the wrong way?

So, to sum it up:  

GEN on the control unit to A on the generator
F on the control unit to F on the generator
BAT on the control unit to the amp meter, and from there to the battery
L on the regulator to fusebox and from there to lights (or would it be better to feed the fuses from the battery and never connect L ? )

Comments or suggestions?

By B terminal, do you mean the connection BAT on the relay?
Not sure what you mean by A circuit and polarizing, maybe the language barrier.

Hello, my name is Ulf and i live in Sweden.
Me and my father in law have been restoring a -56 Oliver OC3, some work still remains, including the electrical system.
We have a alternator ( or is it called a generator since it`s a DC unit? ) and a new relay, but we don`t know how it should be wired.
The alternator/ generator has two connections, the relay has four connections marked: GEN , BAT, L, and F
Can anyone tell me what goes where?

Tried to add some pictures, but they were to big  :(
