Lubricating your F3 B
H
elp your Lionel F3 B lead a long
and productive life on your railroad
by maintaining it properly.
We recommend you purchase a Lionel
929 Lubrication and Maintenance kit (no.
6-62927), available from your Lionel deal-
er. Two basic rules to keep in mind: never
over-lubricate (a small amount will do),
and avoid getting oil on the F3’s wheels,
contact rollers, or your track.
You’ll know your F3 requires lubrica-
tion when visual inspection reveals dry-
ness on the parts indicated in the illus-
tration. Remove accumulated dirt and
dust before lubricating, and always
lubricate any locomotive emerging from
prolonged storage.
Lubricate areas marked by arrows with Lionel oil sparingly
