Getting Started: Initial Operation
Unpacking the Model
Remove the styrofoam packaging
extremely carefully to prevent
damaging accessories and attached
parts.
Initial Operation
We recommend letting the model
run for 30 minutes in both directions,
to properly break it in. This will help
achieve optimal performance and
longevity. Of course, your model
should only be run on smooth and
perfectly clean tracks with reliable
electrical contact to all track sections.
Technical Data
Power Supply
The model should only be operated
on a pure, filtered DC power supply
of 0 to 24 volts, with a capacity of
at least 2 Amps and a fast-acting
fuse or circuit breaker to protect
against short circuits. Do not use a
power supply which is not in safe and
perfect working condition.
Drive System
The locomotive contains a robust
gearbox with a powerful high-
precision can-type motor driving both
axles through a smooth gear drive.
Lighting
Triple LED-lighted lanterns on each
end change according to the direction
of travel.
Radius
The locomotive can run on a track
with a minimum recommended radius
of 600 mm (23.62‘’).
Sound Module
The model is factoryequipped
with the sound module including
loudspeaker. In combination with
the PIKO decoder, this sound can be
used both analog and digital. The
broadband loudspeaker is equipped
with a waterproof membrane.
Maintenance
Lubrication
After each 25 hours of operation, and
after any long periods of storage, please
lubricate the locomotive‘s gears with a
sparing amount of plastic-compatible,
non-hardening grease. Remove the
gearbox bottom cover and be careful
to keep the front and rear wheelsets
aligned with each other. Be sure to
securely re-tighten the gearbox bottom
cover screws.
Cleaning
If cleaning is necessary, use only a mild
cleaning agent (such as soap and water)
and gentle action with a soft non-
abrasive cloth or brush. Never immerse
the loco in liquid or “flood” any internal
parts!
Wheel Wipers and pick-Up shoes should
be changed after 500 hours of operation.
Please Note! Damage to Carpets and
Other Surfaces: Normal operation
of the locomotive causes wear of
mechanical parts (wheels, electrical
pickups etc.). This produces carbonized
dust, grease and oil, which can
permanently stain carpets, wood
floors and other materials. It is the
user’s responsibility to take proper
precautions against this damage.
Wipe any grease or oil from the
track rails with a clean soft cloth.
PIKO Spielwaren GmbH, as well as
its representatives, distributors and
retailers, assume no liability for any
such damage.
Please Note!
