MTH Big Boy Operating Manual
hear a whistle blast sound effect after three seconds have passed at which
time you can release the bell button. (
Note
:
because the whistle blast
sound may be difficult to hear, we recommend that you count out a full
three seconds before releasing the bell button
). The bell will continue to
chime so if you want to turn off the bell chiming, simply press and release
the bell button a second time. If you were in Neutral when you triggered
the Feature, interrupt the throttle to enter either Forward or Reverse to allow
the engine to begin running. (
Note
:
the Feature will only be activated for
the first direction state you enter after leaving the Neutral position. You
cannot interrupt the throttle to enter another direction state and still have
the Feature remain active.
) Once your engine begins running, you can
trigger the sounds to begin playing whenever you enter Neutral.
Option 2:
If you do not have a separate bell button on your layout (or
transformer), you can still activate the Feature with your transformer
whistle button. To activate the Feature utilizing this method, turn on the
transformer throttle and get your engine into the Neutral position (not
RESET). Once in Neutral, set the transformer throttle at 8 volts or less and
press and hold the whistle button for at least three seconds. You will hear
the bell chiming turn on and if you listen carefully, you should hear a
whistle blast sound effect after three seconds have passed at which time you
can release the whistle button. (
Note
:
because the whistle blast sound may
be difficult to hear, we recommend that you count out a full three seconds
before releasing the whistle button
). The bell will continue to chime so if
you want to turn off the bell chiming, simply press and release the whistle
button a second time.
Next, interrupt the throttle
to enter either Forward or
Reverse to allow the engine
to begin running. (

the Feature will only be
activated for the first
direction state you enter
after leaving the Neutral position. You cannot interrupt the throttle to enter
another direction state and still have the Feature remain active.

your engine begins running, you can trigger the sounds to begin playing
whenever you enter Neutral.
