OPERATION
After unpacking the locomotive, make sure that the uncoupling plunger is in the correct position with the pin inserted in
the knuckle (see figure 1). Failure to do so will allow the uncoupling plunger to contact the center rail and a direct short
will occur when power is applied to the track.
Uncoupling
This dummy locomotive is equipped with an operating knuckle coupler at the pilot end. The rear end of the locomotive
has a fixed coupler, to allow close coupling with the matching powered unit. To uncouple, position the uncoupling
plunger over the center of electro-magnetic track uncoupling section and activate the magnet.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Disassembly Instructions
You will have to remove the body shell for bulb replacement, or to install a power upgrade kit. The body shell is attached
with four screws on the bottom of the locomotive frame. The screws are located in each corner of the frame. When you re-
attach body shell, please be careful not to over-tighten the screws.
Lubrication
We recommend that you lubricate as directed on page 1 every 10 hours of operation.
Light Bulb Replacement
This locomotive uses a 12 volt bayonet style bulb. The standard replacement bulb number is 53.
Power Upgrade Kit
A power upgrade kit, Williams by Bachmann® #00243, is available to convert this dummy unit into a powered unit.
Please follow the installation instructions that are included with the kit.
