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 remo-ving 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).
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.
A.C. operation: see fig. 9
The installation of an electrical coupling requires fine mechanical knowledge. Please contact your Roco dealer or a specialist workshop.

Maintenance of the model

To enjoy your model for a long time, it is necesary to service it regulary (i.e. after it has been in ope-ration for approximately 30 hours).

1. 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.

2. Lubrication: Apply tiny oil drops to spots marked in fig. 4. 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 traction tyre: Remove the bogie blind (fig. 7). 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.

4. Carbon Brush Changing: First remove loco body (fig. 3), and then the motor (fig. 5).
   Assembly: During assembly please take care of correct position of contacts.

• Don‘t throw your box in the dustbin. If your model is not in use this box will keep it safe. If kits are mounted on a wagon it will be slightly tight when placing it in the original box. This guarantees safe transport. It is therefore recommanded to cut out certain parts of the original box. To keep the model like the original, smaller parts (e.g. buffers) had been manufactured separately from the body and are not tightly fixed on it. Therefore they probably can get lost. In this case you certainly may reorder them but a complaint would not be acceptable.
  Safety instructions: This product may only be used in closed rooms.
  Do not expose the model to direct sunlight, severe temperature fluctuations or high air humidity.
