Lubrication
Lubricants: always use quality
lubricants!
Light oil such as Labelle #108 or Wahl
Clipper Oil. Heavy lubricant such as
Labelle #102 heavy gear oil or Labelle
grease.
Prepare the engine for lubrication by
placing the model gently on the work
surface. To protect the locomotive
finish, place the engine on a piece of
foam sheet or soft towel. The engine
should be placed on its side. Be
careful to keep the lubricant off of the
painted surfaces, as this can leave
a shiny appearance on the area it
touches.
Oil all external moving parts of the
engine, including wheel bearings, with
a high grade, lightweight machine oil
like 3-in-1. Be sure to oil all parts of
the drive train. A little oil is all that’s
necessary.
It is a good idea to wipe off all excess
light oil when you complete the
lubrication process.
THIS LUBRICATION SHOULD BE
REPEATED AFTER EVERY 25 HOURS
OF OPERATION!
After following the recommended
lubrication procedures, your “Climax”
is ready to provide many years of
enjoyment and reliable operation.
We recommend that you use a D.C.
power supply with a capacity of 2.5
amps or larger and 24 volts.
Always pick your model up by grasping
it under the frame on both ends. It is
a very heavy model so make sure that
you grasp it firmly.
