Precautionary instructions
The Charybdis locomotive operates just like its full-sized counterpart by using coal to
produce steam under pressure. Therefore, parts of the locomotive will become very hot.
Provided the locomotive is operated with adequate care and attention, no problems
should arise. The model is intended for outdoor use and should only be used in well-
ventilated areas.
The model is unsuitable for children unless they are carefully supervised at all times:
Charybdis is not a toy.
Whilst the locomotive is in steam, an exhaust will be emitted through the chimney that
includes hot steam, ash and sparks. Therefore, any operator or bystander must not lean
over the locomotive while it is running.
