Lighting
This model features a directional
front lantern. The model has a
„flat" multi-purpose socket, with a
removable cover, on the rear of
the cab. This socket can be used
to provide track power to cars with
lighting or sound electronics.
To remove the cover of the
socket, pull it straight out. If the
cover is tight, gently use a small
straight screwdriver to pry it out.
(Do not pull out the rectangular
outer housing.)
Smoke Generator
This model is equipped with a
smoke generator. A small supply
of LGB Smoke and Cleaning
Fluid is included with this model.
For best operation, fill the genera-
tor halfway with fluid. If the gene-
rator is overfilled, it will not con-
vert the fluid into smoke.
Attention! Only use LGB Smoke
and Cleaning Fluid (50010).
Other fluids may damage your
locomotive.
Attention! Never touch the hea-
ting element in the center of the
smoke generator. It is fragile.
Power Supply
Attention! For safety and reliabi-
lity, operate this model with LGB
power supplies (transformers,
power packs and controls) only.
The use of non-LGB power sup-
plies will void your warranty.
Use this model with LGB power
supplies 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.
Sound
This model features a digital elec-
tronic sound system. The volume
control is located under the rear
removable steam dome (Fig. 5).
Four miniature switches on the
sound board allow you to control
the sound (Fig. 6). These switches
can be accessed by removing the
plate surrounding the volume
control:
Switch 1: ON Conventional ope-
ration OFF Multi-Train
System
Switch 2: ON Brake on OFF
Brake off
Switch 3: ON Coal shoveling on
OFF coal shoveling off
Switch 4: ON Starting signal on
OFF Starting signal off
The sounds include the exhaust
chuff, steam leakage sounds and
several additional sounds:
Bell and whistle: The whistle
sounds automatically when the
locomotive is started.
The bell and whistle can also be
triggered by the LGB Sound
Magnet (17050) included with this
model. The 17050 snaps between
the ties of most LGB track sec-
tions.
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 trig-
ger the bell.
Brake: To trigger the "squealing"
brake sound, reduce the model's
speed slowly. This requires a skil-
led hand and a little practice. In
addition, you can trigger the brake
sound
with
System.
Air pump: After the model stops,
the air pump sounds several
times. If a low voltage (approx. 6.5
volts) is maintained in the track,
the standing sounds (including air
pump, coal shoveling and other
sounds) will continue at regular
intervals. (When operating the
model
with
System, you will hear the stan-
ding sounds only once.)
Hint: This model is equipped with
a starting delay circuit. This ena-
bles the model to produce stan-
ding sounds while it is stopped.
Attention! Do not connect this
model to other loco models with
different starting characteristics.
This can damage the internal
gearing.
Hint: If this model is not used for
a long time, its capacitors will
discharge, and the sound system
will operate erratically. To rechar-
ge the capacitors, operate the
model at brisk speed for about 30
seconds. This model does not
require a battery.
Attention! After extended opera-
tion, this model may leave carbon
dust or other debris around the
track. This dust and debris can
stain carpet and other materials.
