General Note to Avoid Electromagnetic Interference:
A permanent, flawless wheel-rail contact is required in order to guarantee operation
for which a model is designed. Do not make any changes to current-conducting parts.
Mode of Operation Switch
This model has a three-way power control switch mounted inside the cab (Fig. 1).
Pos. 0 Locomotive stopped without current
Pos. 1 Power to lights, sound and motor
Pos. 2 & 3 Same as Pos. 1
Sound
The bell and whistle can be activated with a LGB sound activation magnet (item no.
17050). The activation magnet can be clipped into place between the ties of most
LGB track sections. Place the magnet on the right side in order to activate the whistle
when the locomotive passes over this location. The bell will sound when the magnet
is placed on the left side.
Smoke Generator
In analog operation, the smoke generator synchronized to the wheels is turned off
due to its power draw. This can be turned on by setting CV 13 from Value 32 to
Value 96, but this may affect the running characteristics when running very slowly –
depending on the current supply.
The smoke generator may be filled with a maximum of 5 – 6 milliliters / 0.2 fluid
ounces of 2421 smoke fluid.
