Instruction Manual - Shay Electric
After following the recommended lubrication procedures your
locomotive is ready to provide many years of reliable operation.
We recommend that you use a D.C power supply with a
capacity of 2.5 amps or larger. Always pick your model up by
grasping it under the frame on both ends. It is a very heavy
model so make sure that you grasp it firmly.

Electrical Pickup
Your Accucraft model is powered by the DC voltage off the
track. All drivers are insulated on both sides of the locomotive,
and the electricity is picked up with 8 pickup wheels. Be
sure to clean electrical pickup units before each operation.
Replacement electrical pickup units can be ordered from
Accucraft Trains.

General maintenance
Clean the exterior surfaces of your locomotive with a clean, soft

the painted surfaces use alcohol on a soft, lint free cloth.
