After removing the engine from storage, add another 25 drops of fluid, letting the
wick soak up the fluid for 15 minutes prior to operation.

If  you experience poor or no smoke output when the smoke unit is on and has
fluid, check the wick to see if  it has become hard, blackened, and unabsorbent
around the heating element. After removing the locomotive body from its chassis,
remove the smoke unit inspection cover (see below). After removing the
inspection cover screws, lift the inspection plate away and inspect the wick. If  it is
darkly discolored and hard, it should be replaced.

Replacement parts and wick replacement instructions are available directly from
the M.T.H. Parts Department (Order online: www.mth-railking.com, e-mail:
