Getting Started: Initial Operation
Unpacking the Model
Remove the styrofoam packaging
extremely carefully to prevent damaging
accessories and attached parts such as
handrails etc.
Initial Operation
We recommend letting the locomotive
run without a train for 30 minutes
in both directions, to properly break
it in. This will help achieve optimal
performance and longevity for the
locomotive. Of course, your model
should only be run on smooth and
perfectly clean tracks with reliable
electrical contact to all track sections.
Technical Data
Power Supply
The model should only be operated on
a pure, filtered DC power supply of 0
to 24 volts, with a capacity of at least
2 Amp and a fast-acting fuse or circuit
breaker to protect against short circuits.
Do not use a power supply which is not
in safe and perfect working condition.
(See "Digital Decoder" section for
operation on digital power.)
Mechanism
The model has two powerful Bühler
motors, each driving four axles via
robust gearboxes.
Lighting
The model is equipped with automatic
directional headlights, using white/red
LEDs for a realistic appearance. The
"front" lights are illuminated according
to the travel direction.
Digital decoder included
The model is factory equipped with the
PIKO SmartDecoder 4.1. The locomotive
can be used both analog and digital.
Sound included
The model is factory equipped with the
sound module #36229 and a speaker.
In combination with the installed
PIKO DigitalDecoder 4.1, this sound
can be used both analog and digital.
Maintenance
Lubrication
After each 25 hours of operation, and
after any long periods of storage, please
lubricate the locomotive's gears with a
sparing amount of plastic-compatible,
non-hardening grease. Remove the
gearbox bottom cover and be careful
to keep the front and rear wheelsets
aligned with each other. Be sure to
securely retighten the gearbox bottom
cover screws.
Cleaning
If cleaning is necessary, use only a mild
cleaning agent (such as soap and water)
and gentle action with a soft non-
abrasive cloth or brush. Never immerse
the loco in liquid or "flood" any internal
parts!
Wheel Wipers and pick-Up shoes
should be changed after 500 hours of
operation.
Please Note! Damage to Carpets and
Other Surfaces: Normal operation of the
locomotive causes wear of mechanical
parts (wheels, electrical pickups etc.). This
produces carbonized dust, grease and
oil, which can permanently stain carpets,
wood floors and other materials. It is
the user's responsibility to take proper
precautions against this damage. Wipe
any grease or oil from the track rails
with a clean soft cloth. PIKO Spielwaren
GmbH, as well as its representatives,
distributors and retailers, assume no
liability for any such damage.
Please Note!
