In order to ensure that your locomotive provides you with many years of pleasure, certain service work
at regular intervals (approx. every 30 operating hours) is advisable.
Before commencing care and maintenance work on the model, first uncouple the locomotive from the
tender.
▪ Decoupling of locomotive and tender
▪ Cleaning of the wheel-current contacts
Wheel contacts easily get dirty on tracks which are not entirely clean. Use a small brush to remove dirt
from spots marked (fig. 2) after heaving removed the Loco body (fig. 1 and 1a) or gear cover (fig.1b).
