Attaching the controller wires to the lockon
N
ow you’ll need to insert a controller
wire into each of the two spring clips on
the lockon.
It’s easy! Depress the spring clip with your
finger and insert the bare end of the wire
into the exposed opening. Release the spring
clip. Give the wire a little tug to make sure
it’s secure. Repeat these steps with the other
spring clip. Next, insert the small plug end
of the power pack into the back of your con-
troller, and plug the other end into a stan-
dard outlet.
If the horn fails to operate
when you press the
horn/whistle button on your con-
troller
, remove the wires from the lockon
and reinsert each one into the opposite clip
to reverse polarity (see page 7).
Plug this end into
back of controller.
Stripping the wire
O
nce your track is assembled and the
lockon is securely
attached, you can
connect the wires
from the con-
troller to the
lockon.
First you‘ll want to
check the ends of the
wires to make sure that the insulation is
stripped back about 1⁄4" to 3⁄8".
To strip the wires, use a
pair of wire
strippers or a
sharp knife.
Caution:
Only an adult
should perform
this task! Always use
care when stripping wires.
Note!
Plug power pack
into standard wall
outlet
Make sure that the bare end of
each wire is securely attached
to the spring clip.
