Starting locomotive operation

Unwrap model

Take out the model cautiously with foil (Fig. 1).

Operating instructions

Before use, it is advisable to let the loco go around about 30 minutes forwards and 30 minutes backwards without load to obtain an optimal circuit and best tractive power. The smallest radius that this model should run is R2 of the ROCO track system (R2 = 358 mm). Your locomotive will run smoothly on clean tracks only. Forcleaning, we recommend using item no. 46400, Roco track cleaning van, or item no. 10002, Roco track cleaning rubber, for removing heavy dirt.

Fittings

Operation is possible with different couplings (Fig. 2). We recommend using the Roco close coupling. In the enclosed accessory bag, you will find small kits to be fitted on your locomotive. Please mount them cautiously. Attention! Use glue only if indicated (Fig. 2+3).

Running in digital mode

Remove the jumper from the interface. Finally, put the plug of the chip into the interface as shown in Fig. 8. Attention! On models with train destination display, their lighting as well as the high beam function cannot be switched in analogue operation!

Maintenance of the model

To enjoy your model for a long time, it is necessary to service it regularly (i.e. after it has been in op-eration for approximately 30 hours).

1. Cleaning of wheel contacts: Wheel contacts easily get dirty on tracks that are not en-tirely clean. Use a small brush to remove dirt from spots marked in fig. 6. Prior to cleaning the contacts dismantle the bogie (fig. 5).

2. Lubrication : Apply tiny oil drops to spots marked in fig. 9. Prior to lubrication dismantle locomotive (fig. 4). 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.
