in the case of a single phase genset you could label the windings from left to right as 1(black)2/3(yellow)4(red). if you split the 2/3(yellow) and then run 2(yellow) to 4(black) and 3(yellow) to 1(red) you then have a 110 only machine. .

Not good! I should have read before I posted this. correction in order:

goes like this (black)1 and (yellow)3 tied together. (yellow)2 and (red)4 tied together. for 110 machine.Note: check with multimeter black and (yellow)2 are same coil red and (yellow)3 are same coil.

did you say most of the noise comes from the what?where the recoil starter is. that is what I thought but have nothing to test it with. when I bought the machine I set it out in the drive and started it, then I just covered it with the box it came in, I could have had a candle light dinner right next to it with out having a problem, so I know I can do something to quiet it down. ( it ran out of "O" and quit in a very short time so no harm was done. anyhow I think I have a fix for the noise will report when it is complete and tested,by ear.

also what I went on the net for was a manual so I could figure out more about the motor and carb so I could order a kit, my plan is to convert to propane/gas, the noise is not the only objection I have to a gas or diesel genset. when this is done I will post how things work.
