9. Spare parts
Due to the large number of parts built into class
66/77 we have divided the spare parts in to compo-
nent groups. Some parts belonging to large parts
groups are also included in smaller groups.
Please bear in mind that only the spare parts lis-
ted in the supplied spare part list are available ex
works as spare parts. Enquiries for individual parts
are pointless.
Should you require a spare part you must first
identify the spare part group containing the nee-
ded part. For rarely needed parts you may have to
purchase a larger component group. You must sta-
te the listed ESU part number when ordering spare
parts from your hobby shop
Both arresting positions
Figure 20:
The first arresting position of the coupler may be
needed in order to avoid the buffers of the locomo-
tive and the first car missing each other in curves
(Particularly S curves) when ever heavy trains are
pushed through such curves. Generally you would
push the coupler into its proper position.
7. Accessories supplied with the model
ESU is fully aware of the “challenges” of model
train operations. Often enough small detail parts
break off and “disappear”. Since the class 66/77
has quite a few details and we want to make sure
that can enjoy your class 66/77 for a very long time
we have put a little plastic bag with small parts that
could easily break or get lost. Make sure you keep
these parts for the time when you may need them.
