To turn speed control on and off,
put the engine in neutral, then quickly tap the
transformer's horn/whistle button one time then quickly tap the Bell button two
times, allowing approximately ½ second to lapse between each quick button press.
Repeat the 1 horn/whistle, 2 bells code to return it to the other condition. You
will want to do this during the initial neutral upon start-up if you ever couple this
engine to another engine that is not equipped with speed control to avoid
damaging the motors in either engine. Each time you shut down the engine
completely, it will automatically turn speed control on.
Lock into a Direction:
You can lock your engine into a direction (forward, neutral, or reverse) so that it
will not change directions. To do this, put the engine into the direction you want
(or into neutral to lock it into neutral), run it at a very slow crawl (as slowly as it
will move without halting), and quickly but firmly tap the Horn/Whistle button
once followed by three quick taps of the Bell button, allowing approximately ½
second to lapse between each quick button press. Two horn/whistle blasts will
indicate that the engine has made the change. The engine will not change direction
(including going into neutral) until you repeat the 1 horn/whistle, 3 bells code to
return the engine to its normal condition, even if the engine is kept without power
for extended periods of time.

Reset to Factory Defaults:
To override the settings you currently have assigned to the engine and reset it to its
factory defaults, while in Neutral tap the Horn/Whistle button quickly once,
followed by five quick taps of the Bell button, allowing approximately ½ second to
lapse between each quick button press. Two horn/whistle blasts will indicate that
the engine has made the change.
