Preparation
It may be possible that the coupler on the locomotive has to be adapted to the tender.
To do this, replace the coupler loop installed at the factory with the coupler hook
included with the tender (Figure 1).
Connecting Cable
The tender should be connected to the general-purpose socket on an LGB locomotive
in order to increase operating reliability. A connecting cable is included for this
purpose. Plug the connecting cable into the general-purpose socket on the front of
the tender and into the socket on the rear of the locomotive (Figure 2).
Electronic Sound
Steam Sounds: The chuffing for this model depends on the voltage present in the
rails, not on the speed of the tender. The chuffing will become faster when you
increase the voltage.
Bell and Whistle: The bell and whistle can be activated with the LGB sound activa-
tion magnets (17050) included with the tender. The activation magnet can be clipped
between the ties on most sections of LGB track. The magnet is located off center
under the imprinted LGB logo. Place the magnet on one side to activate the whistle
when the tender crosses over this spot. The bell will sound when you place the
magnet on the other side.
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.
SERVICE
Lubrication
Oil the axle bearings now and then with a drop of Märklin oil (7149).
