Lubrication of the drive mechanism
To access the drive mechanism for lubrication purposes the loco body first needs to be removed from
the chassis (see ”
Removing the cab”). Lubricate the worm and toothed gear wheels as shown in Fig. 5.
Apply a commercially available oil with a fine canula or pin. Afterward, move the model slightly forward
and backward to distribute the oil to the transmission components that are situated farther inside. Repeat
this procedure as needed. We recommend this service after every 30 to 40 hours of operation.
21-pole digital interface
A built in 21-pole digital interface
PL allows conversion to digital operation (Fig. 6). It is accessed by
removing the cab (see ”
Removing the cab”) or by removing the complete loco body from the chassis
(see ”
Removing the loco body”).
Prior to conversion please ensure
that all functions work correctly in
DC operation. Unplug the bridging
plug
JP vertically (Fig. 6) and store
it somewhere safe. Now plug in the
decoder. Please follow exactly the
installation instructions supplied by
the decoder manufacturer. For all
queries regarding decoder function
and installation please contact the
decoder supplier or manufacturer di-
rect. Please note that we can accept
no liability in respect of any decoder
subsequently installed in the model.
