Starting locomotive operation
Unwrap model: Take out the model cautiously
with foil (fig. 1).
Very important!
Before taking into service your model the-
se bearings of the coupling rods must be
oil ed as otherwise there would be the risk of
bad running qualities of damage on the loco-
motive (see fig. 4).
Operating instructions: Before use is advisab-
le to let the loco go around about 30 minutes for-
wards an 30 minutes backwards without load, to
obtain an optomal circuit and best tractive power.
The smallest radius this model should run is H0e
Standard R = 261,8 mm.
Your locomotive will run smoothly on clean tracks
only. For this purpose we recommend using item
no. 10002, ROCO track cleaning rubber, for
remo-ving heavy dirt.

Maintenance of the model

To enjoy your model for a long time, it is neces-
ary to service it regulary (i.e. after it has been in
ope-ration for approximately 30 hours).
1. Cleaning of wheel contacts: Wheel cont-
acts easily get dirty on tracks which are not enti-
rely clean. Use a small brush to remove dirt from
spots marked in fig. 6.
2. Lubrication: Apply tiny oil drops to spots
marked in fig. 4+8. Prior to lubrication dismantle
locomotive (fig. 3). We recommend using item no.
10906, ROCO oiler. For lubrication the gearparts
(e.g. cogwheels, worm) we whould recommended
our ROCO special grease (item no. 10905).
Attention: Please do not oil these parts when
using our grease.
3. Change of lights: First remove loco body
(fig. 3) and then change lights (fig. 7).
4. Carbon Brush Changing: First remove loco
body (fig. 3), and then change the carbon brus-
hes or the motor (fig. 9).
Assembly: During assembly please take care of
correct position of contacts.
