Lubrication
You should lubricate the engine to prevent it from squeaking. Use
light household oil and follow the lubrication points marked “L” in
Fig. 6. Do not over-oil. Use only a drop or two on each pivot point.

Priming The Smoke Unit
When preparing to run this engine, add 30-40
drops of smoke fluid through the smokestack.
We recommend M.T.H. ProtoSmoke, Seuthe,
LGB, or LVTS fluids. Do not overfill the unit or
the fluid may leak out and coat the interior engine
components.
If you choose not to add the fluid (or have
already added the fluid but choose to run
smoke-free), rotate the smoke unit knob located
inside the boiler front (see Fig. 7) to the off
position (rotate clockwise). If you wish to
regulate the smoke output intensity, turn the knob
between full counterclockwise and full clockwise
until the desired smoke output is reached.
Failure either to add fluid to the unit or to turn it off may damage the smoke unit
heating element and/or wicking material.
While M.T.H. does not recommend operating outdoors in inclement weather (in order to
prevent possible damage to the electronics), we have included for your convenience, a
smoke stack “cap” inside your locomotive packaging. This cap should be inserted on the
smoke stack to prevent moisture from entering the smoke unit chamber.
DO NOT
OVER OIL
Running the engine without a primed
smoke unit may cause damage
