PREMIER
FM TRAINMASTER
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This Premier Trainmaster Diesel engine is of sturdy ABS construction and operates on
any O-31 track system. It contains state-of-the-art electronics with many built-in
automatic features for incredibly realistic operation. Despite these advanced features, the
locomotive is easy to operate with any compatible standard AC transformer that is
equipped with whistle and bell buttons (see the compatibility chart on page
20), and is
compatible with most other 3-rail locomotives, rolling stock, and accessories.
This locomotive is equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0 with Digital Command System
(DCS). This new system will allow you to operate your locomotive in Command mode
(when used with the DCS Remote Control System, sold separately) or Conventional
mode. Conventional operating features are described in the following pages, while the
DCS operating features are covered in the set of operating instructions that
accompanies the DCS equipment.
While Conventional Mode operation of this
locomotive is much simpler than operation of original Proto-Sound engines, we
recommend that for your own safety and that of your equipment, please read the
instructions before you operate this engine.
