The Kohs & Company Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1 locomotive is an exact scale replica of the
original prototype. It is constructed of formed and fabricated brass and incorporates many scale
operational features. Although the model is very sturdily built, the body shell, pantographs and
particularly the detailing are very susceptible to damage by rough or careless handling. To
prevent damage, please exercise great care in unpacking and handling the model. The locomo-
tive is best handled by lifting under the main frames on both sides at the center of the model,
when touching the painted surfaces, be advised to wear the supplied gloves to protect the finish.
This locomotive model is designed to operate on Direct Current (DC) electricity. Any application
of Alternating Current (AC)
WILL DESTROY THE INTERNAL ELECTRONIC COMPO-
NENTS OF THIS MODEL
. Kohs & Company will not be responsible for damage caused by the
application of AC power to the model. We will offer further power supply specifications under
the heading of 'Power Supply Requirements', please make note of these recommendations.
Before unpacking, handling or operating this model
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO FULLY
READ THIS MANUAL
. This is a small investment of time to protect your substantial financial
investment and to prevent unnecessary disappointment and frustration.
LOCOMOTIVE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance consists of periodic lubrication as described under the heading 'Preparing For Opera-
tion' and replacement of the sound system batteries covered under the heading 'Sound System'. It is advis-
able to periodically check the tightness of the small fasteners used to assemble the detailing to make certain
that parts will not be lost. If the model will not be operated for an extended period of time, remove the
batteries from the locomotive .
