To begin the function testing process, link the plug in front of the tender to the socket at
the end of the wire coming from the rear of the locomotive
(See fig. #3).
This allows all of
the R/C and electronic functions from the control panel of the tender to function in a
manual mode without the use of the transmitter.

Manual mode testing
Remove the pressure fit coal load from the top of the tender to expose the control panel.
1) Push the left slide switch to the “operation” position and you will see a red indicator
light turn on.
2) Now you can test the sound buttons and the headlight button. These remain in opera-
tion until depressed a second time.
3) Next test the forward or reverse direction buttons and you will see the radius rod arm
move
(see fig. #4).
