Maintaining and servicing your locomotive
Lubricating your locomotive
H
elp your Lionel locomotive lead a long and productive life on your railroad by
maintaining it properly. To keep your locomotive lubricated, we recommend that
you purchase a Lionel Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (6-62927), available from your
authorized Lionel dealer.
When you find that the lubrication points illustrated in Figure 5 appear dry, lubricate
your locomotive after you have removed any accumulated dirt and dust. There are two basic
rules to keep in mind when you are lubricating your locomotive: use only a small amount of
lubrication and avoid getting grease or oil on your locomotiveās wheels, roller pick-ups, or the
track.
