If you experience poor or no smoke output when the smoke unit is on and has
fluid, check the wick to see if it has become hard, blackened, and unabsorbent
around the heating element. Remove the
smoke unit inspection cover from the
locomotive’s body (see Fig. 5). After
removing the chassis and inspection cover
screws, lift the inspection plate away and
inspect the wick. If it is darkly discolored
and hard, it should be replaced.
Replacement parts and wick replacement
instructions are available directly from the
M.T.H. Parts Department
