Using your F3 B’s couplers in the non-Command environment
T
o use your F-3 B’s coupler in the non-
Command environment, you must
first couple a piece of rolling stock
equipped with Lionel magnetic couplers
directly to your F3 B. The magnetic cou-
pler on the rolling stock will then react
to the magnetic field generated by a
Lionel remote-control track section
(available separately). Place your rolling
stock’s coupler “trigger disc” over the
central coil of a remote-control track
section and press uncouple on the con-
troller. The magnetic field pulls the disc
downward, and the coupler opens.
