Lubricating your AEC switcherlocomotive
H
elp your Lionel AEC switcher
locomotive lead a long and pro-
ductive life on your railroad by main-
taining it properly.
We recommend you purchase a
Lionel
929
Lubrication
and
Maintenance kit (no. 6-62927), available
from your Lionel dealer. Two basic
rules to keep in mind:
never
over-lubri-
cate (a small amount will do), and
avoid getting grease or oil on the AEC
switcher’s wheels, contact rollers,
or
your track.
You’ll know your AEC switcher
requires lubrication when visual inspec-
tion reveals dryness on the parts indi-
cated in the illustration. Remove accu-
mulated dirt and dust before lubricat-
ing, and always lubricate any locomo-
tive emerging from prolonged storage.
