The voltage regulator controls the output. You will need to check that first.

Unfortunately, a service manual is not going to be easy to find. You may be able to order from Powermate, but you may want to save your money and spend it on consumables.
I am guessing that you are looking for a service manual for the engine itself? Good Luck on that one as well, as Tecumseh has folded. Post the engine model# and other information found on the tag, somebody (perhaps myself) may have the manual you need and send it to you via email.
Parts for the engine itself are likely to be hard to find, consider an engine replacement. It likely will be cheaper.

This engine was not built with quiet in mind, it was built to be cheap. upgrading the exhaust is your best bet and likely the cheapest. Talk to a small engine shop about the possibility of using a muffler from an ATV.
Super Trap makes a fantastic muffler, if it will fit your application (most do). A link has been provided at the end. When you are looking at the various options, you will notice that a rating in db units. Reducing noise by 3db is half the original noise level.
if you can, go with the SuperTrapp. If still noisy (probably won't be), then add on the resonator as well. Downside to using aftermarket is that you will have an exhaust stack / system that sticks out the side of the generator. Upside is that you will be able to think quietly about how much the exhaust sticks out.
And no, I don't have any connection with Jack's, they are just the first hit that came up. Now that you know that something is available, you can do more research on it.
