thank you. can you describe how it's attached to the generator? I see that no
connections are required so I mean how is it fastened so that running vibrations won't
drop it off?

Looks like a wire wrapped around a plug wire.

my apologies for not being entirely clear. I meant, how is the display attached?
Screwed on to body? Self-adhesive dual-sided tape?
