Coupler

•
Put the engine in neutral (not RESET)
•
Move the throttle to its highest voltage setting
If you are using an electronic transformer, such as an All-Trol, you may have to
bring the throttle down a little from the very highest setting.
•
With the throttle still at the highest voltage setting, press and release
the Horn Button. The coupler is armed
You will hear the sound of the coupler drawbar lifting. The coupler is now
armed and ready to fire.
•
Leave the engine in neutral or interrupt the power and run the engine
in any direction
•
Press and release the Horn Button
The coupler will fire. The horn will not blow.
You can press the horn button to fire the coupler in any direction, but not in
RESET. The coupler will remain armed until you fire it, even if you enter and
leave RESET. If the power is off for more than 15 seconds, and the computer
shuts down, the coupler needs to be armed again.
Note: The difference between turning the bell on and off or arming and firing
the coupler is the position of the throttle. You need a low throttle setting (below
10 volts) to operate the bell, and the highest voltage setting to arm the coupler.
Caa-lank!
To arm the coupler, put the engine in neutral,
keep the throttle at high and push the horn button
