Hand Rail
Bend a length of 0.45 mm brass wire to suit the curve at the front of the smoke box, thread on the Hand Rail Knob for the smoke
box and push the two ends through the hand rail knobs on the smoke box and boiler sides and into the holes just under the cab
front windows. Solder into place inside the cab then solder the hand rail on the front of the smoke box into place if needed, use
a dab of glue in preference.
Lamp Brackets
Note
The supplied brackets have an etched bend which is vulnerable to mishandling. An alternative is to use a short length of 1 mm
wide brass and make a sharp fold in it. Staples have been recommended elsewhere as another customer choice.
Drill out the locating holes in Lamp Brackets (15-17). Remove Lamp Brackets (15-17) from the fret, bend to shape and fit to foot
plate using 0.33 mm brass wire to locate them.
Trim any excess wire and file down.
Vacuum Pipe
Locate the Markits Vacuum Pipe. Drill out the corresponding hole in the front foot plate and solder into place. Ensure it is
vertical.
Hand Rails (Cab Side)
Fit a short length of 0.45 mm brass wire into the two holes on the cab sides. This should be about 0.9 mm from the cab side.
Foot Plate Grab Handles
If the centre steps are fitted then there should be a grab handle on the footplate. Clear the holes in the foot plates between the
leading and centre splashers to 0.45 mm and fit a short length of 0.45 mm brass wire setting it to 0.9 mm above the foot plate.
