Grease
Grease should be added to the internal drive gears annually or after every 50 hours
of operation. Grease can be added by inserting grease into the gear box inside the
locomotive chassis. In order to access the gear box, the boiler must be removed
from the chassis by unscrewing the four chassis screws as seen in Figure 3 below.
Once the boiler is removed, the gear box can be opened up by unscrewing the three
screws on the plate located in front of the motor. Grease can then be applied into
the gear box using a grease tube dispenser.
