PREMIER CLIMAX LOGGING  

STEAM ENGINE

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This Premier Climax Logging Steam Engine is produced in detailed Die-Cast Metal and
operates on O-31 track. This Premier Steam Engine 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 (see the compatibility chart on page

 

19), and is completely 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.

  Conventional Mode operation of this locomotive is

much simpler than operation of original Proto-Sound engines.  For your own safety and
that of your equipment, please read the instructions before you operate this engine.
