Lubrication

IMPORTANT – Only apply small single drops of light 

machine oil to the places indicated in red. This is best 

achieved by making a simple oil “dropper” as illustrated 

in Fig.1. Insert a straightened paper clip into a cork and 

use a bottle cap as a container for the oil. A small drop 

of oil can then be picked up by the dropper and applied 

in exactly the right place. Immediately wipe off any 

excess oil, especially from the locomotive and tender 

bodies. Only lubricate moving parts.

Apply one drop of oil to each of the 

valve gear and connecting rod pivot 

points indicated in red in Fig.2, on 

both sides of the locomotive.

Apply one drop of oil to each of 

the axle bearings indicated in red. 

(See Fig.3).

To remove the locomotive body

Turn the locomotive upside down and remove 

the screw from the rear bogie. (Fig.6). Turn the 

locomotive the right way up and ease the rear 

end of the chassis downwards from the body. 

When the rear of the chassis is clear of the body, 

pull the chassis backwards to disengage the front 

chassis lugs from the ftont of the body. (Fig.7)

To replace the locomotive motor

Remove the front and rear motor bracket screws.  

The motor can now be lifted clear and replaced. (Fig.8).
