the frame. To reposition bogie wheel
sets, drill holes fully through using a

curing bogie wheel cross shafts to
frame and reinstall bogie wheels in
new
position.
Front Cab Louvers

the louvers as soon as

becomes firmer or as soon as engine
becomes too hot.

must block the entry of fresh air on the
side of the silencer box and the rubber
vent must allow the warm air being
emitted from the engine to be directed
over the carburetor.
