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).
Accessories
Check accessories supplied with your model against the images below. The vacpipes
and articulated coupling cannot be fitted if the front coupling is to be used when running the locomotive.
To remove the locomotive body
Remove rear chassis screw as shown in Fig.8, then ease rear end of chassis
downwards from body, gently pulling back to disengage front chassis lug from
