Are you asking how to hook up a generator to a diesel motor or how to derive electricity from a diesel motor?

To use a diesel engine you would need to get a generator that will match up to the drive output of the diesel motor. It could be as easy as attaching a flex coupler to the crankshaft end of the diesel. Or it may take an adapter depending on the motor used. I would contact the generator manufacture of the unit you have or will have to determine what you will need.

If you are asking how to derive electricity from just the diesel motor. If it has a generator on it for powering the electrical system of the vehicle or equipment it came from. You can attach leads from the generator. Then you need to find out what type of current you need and add resisters or transformers to get what you need. If it has an alternater run the leads to a power inverter.

Ok son, tell us exactly what you need.

You can't "produce generator with diesel engine", but you can drive generator with diesel engine, which is quite different.
