Optimally setting up the grinders:
To ensure proper and continuous driving, slightly fan out the ends
of the contact brushes
1
and bend them towards the track as per
fig.
2
. Only the end of the contact brush should have contact to the
track and may be cut off slightly in case of wear. Dust and abrasion
should be removed from track material and sliding contacts from
time to time.
During operation small car parts as spoilers or mirrors may get off or
brake due to being original detailed parts of the car model. To avoid
this it is possible to remove them before operation.

General information on connectors 1-4:
As far as a Wireless Tower is used, it will have to be plugged into
connector 1. Alternatively a second Wireless Tower can be plugged
into connector 2. In case only one Wireless Tower is used, connec-
tor 2 will have to be kept empty.
Additional wired speed controllers may be plugged into connectors
3 and 4. Please note that these will use address 5 and 6 then.
Using the speed controller extension set 30348 it has to be plugged
into connector 1. The cars´ addresses will be allocated as follows:
• Speed controller extension set = address 1, 3 and 4
• connector 2 = address 2
• connector 3 = address 5
• connector 4 = address 6
