Using this locomotive is easy. First, make sure you're using the correct analog DC power source. Connect it properly to start the engine. You'll notice the front light comes on, which adds a nice touch to your layout. When running it, since the motor and gearbox make minimal noise, you can enjoy a smooth operation. Here are some things to keep in mind. Don't use an incorrect power source as it may damage the motor. Be gentle when handling the locomotive and tender, especially when attaching or detaching the Kadee couplers on the tender and the cast coupler on the locomotive pilot. For maintenance, it was recently serviced with a new drive tube and gearbox lubricant, but over time, you may want to check the gearbox lubrication. If you notice increased noise or a decrease in performance, that could be a sign it needs some attention. Also, check the wheels for wear periodically. Keep it in its original box and foam insert when not in use to protect it from damage.
