Starting locomotive operation
Unwrap model: Take out the model cautiously with foil **(fig. 1).

Operating instructions: Before use is advisable to let the loco go around about 30 minutes forwards an 30 minutes backwards without load, to obtain an optomal circuit and best tractive power. The smallest radius this model should run is R2 of the ROCO track system (R2 = 358 mm).
Your locomotive will run smoothly on clean tracks only. For this purpose 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!
A.C. pick up: see fig. 11
Maintenance of the model
To enjoy your model for a long time, it is necessary to service it regulary (i.e. after it has been in operation for approximately 30 hours).
Cleaning of wheel contacts: Wheel contacts easily get dirty on tracks
which are not entirely clean. Use a small brush to remove dirt from spots
marked in fig. 6. Prior to cleaning the contacts dismantle the bogie
(fig. 5).
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.
Change of traction tyre : Remove the gear cover (fig. 5). Take out wheel set and remove traction tyre using a pin or a fine screwdriver (fig. 7). When pressing on the new traction tyre please avoid twisting it.
