CONDUCTIVE LUBRICANT
When operating outdoors, under high temperatures, and other environmental conditions, there is a lot of friction, wear,
and lubricant evaporation. Friction is metal’s worst enemy. Bachmann E-Z Lube® Conductive Contact Lubricant enhances
electrical conductivity and will decrease the amp draw of your locomotive. Just put one drop on the electrical pickup point
on each of the drive wheels (Figure 10) and on the end of each axle of the tender truck wheel sets where they enter the side
frame (Figure 11). Put a small drop on each tender wheel and on each wheel tread of the locomotive’s lead truck.
Please note, you should perform this electrical conductive maintenance after every 5 to 6 hours of operation, or as needed.
