Lubrication

Fig.1
IMPORTANT – Only apply small single drops of light machine oil to the places indicated in red in Figs 2 and 3. This is best achieved by making a simple oil ‘dropper’ as illustrated in Fig.1. Insert a straightened paper clip into a cork and use a
bottle cap as a container for the oil. A small drop of oil can then be picked up by the dropper and applied in exactly the right place. Immediately wipe off any excess oil, especially from the locomotive body. Only lubricate moving parts.
Carefully fit the
detailed parts into
their location points
(see Figs 4)
Some of these
accessories should
only be fitted for use
on static displays.
