Smoke Generator
This model has a smoke genera-
tor in the smokestack. There is a
small silver switch on the bottom
of the loco, directly under the
smoke stack (Fig. 1). To turn the
smoke generator on, turn the
switch until it touches the brass
contact.
A small supply of LGB Smoke
and Cleaning Fluid is also inclu-
ded with this model. For best ope-
ration, fill the generator halfway
with fluid. If the generator is over-
filled, it will not convert the fluid
into smoke.
Attention! Only use LGB Smoke
and Cleaning Fluid (50010) in the
smoke generator. Other fluids
may damage your locomotive.
Attention! Never touch the hea-
ting element in the center of the
smoke generator. It is fragile.
