Sound
This model features a digital elec-
tronic sound system. The volume
control is located in the baggage
compartment next to the power con-
trol switch (Fig. 1).
All sound features described below
also can be controlled directly with
the LGB Multi-Train System (see
Multi-Train System).
When track power is switched on,
you first hear the bell which indicates
the preheating of the diesel engine.
Then the diesel engine starts and
idles. If the track voltage is
increased, the diesel motor acceler-
ates from 800 rpm to 1100 rpm. (The
diesel engine powers the generator
which provides electricity for the
traction motors.) The loco moves at
about 10 km/h (6.5 mph). If the
speed is increased further, the diesel
engine accelerates to the max. speed
of 1300 rpm, and the traction motors
are quite audible. If the 65011 Sound
Unit Power Storage is installed (see
Standing sounds), you hear the
diesel engine switching off when
track voltage goes to zero.
Horn and whistle: The horn sounds
automatically when the locomotive is
started.
The horn and whistle also can be
triggered using the LGB Sound
Trigger Magnet (17050) included
with this model. The 17050 snaps
between the ties of most LGB track
sections.
The magnet in the 17050 is under the
LGB logo. If the contact is installed
with the logo on one side of the
track, it will trigger the whistle as the
model passes. If the contact is
reversed, it will trigger the horn.
Brake: To trigger the "squealing"
brake sound, reduce the model's
speed slowly. This requires a skilled
hand and a little practice.

Standing sounds: With the Multi-
Train System, you hear the idling
diesel engine and, at regular inter-
vals, the safety valve of the air tank,
while the loco is standing.
To hear the standing sounds with
analog operation, a low voltage
(approx. 6.5 volts) must be main-
tained on the tracks. Turn the throttle
to a low setting so that the loco does
not yet start, but you can hear the
sounds.
Hint: To obtain standing sounds with
analog operation while the throttle is
turned off and when reversing the
locomotive's direction, the 65011
Sound Unit Power Storage must be
installed. For questions regarding the
installation of the 65011, please con-
tact your authorized retailer.
Hint: This model is equipped with a
starting delay circuit. This enables
the model to produce standing
sounds while it is stopped.
Attention! Do not connect this model
to other locomotives with different
starting characteristics. This can
damage the internal gearing.
Power Supply
Attention! For safety and reliability,
operate this model with LGB power
supplies (transformers, power packs
and controls) only. The use of non-
LGB power supplies will void your
warranty.
Use this model with LGB power sup-
plies with an output of more than 1
amp. For more information on LGB
power supplies for indoor, outdoor
and multi-train operation, see the
LGB catalog.
Attention! After extended operation,
this model may leave carbon dust or
other debris around the track. This
dust and debris can stain carpet and
other materials. Consider this when
setting up your layout. Ernst Paul
Lehmann Patentwerk and LGB of
America are not liable for any dam-
ages.
