RailKing GG-1 Electric Engine

INITIAL LUBRICATION

Although the engine was lubricated at the factory, it is important that you

lubricate the chassis before operation.  Lightly grease the outside idler and

drive gears (marked “G” in Fig. 3 on page 7) to prevent them from squeaking. 

Use light household oil and follow the lubrication points marked “L” in Fig. 2

on page 7.  Do not over-oil.  Use only a drop or two on each pivot point. 

At this point, you are ready to put your engine on the track and begin running

it.

BASIC OPERATION

Throttle  – Throttle up the power to your track by either firmly pressing the

Direction button on your transformer or remote once or quickly dropping and

advancing the throttle to put the engine in forward. 

Operation Buttons

Use the operation buttons on your transformer or remote as described below.

Horn/Whistle - To sound the horn, firmly press the Horn/Whistle button. The

horn will sound for as long as you continue to depress the button.  It will stop

when you release the button.

Bell - To sound the bell, firmly press and release the Bell button. To turn the

bell off, press and release the Bell button again.  The bell will continue to ring

from the time your turn it on until you press and release the button again to

turn it off.

Direction – Your train is programmed to start in neutral.  To put the engine

into forward and then to change the direction of the train or to put it into

neutral, firmly press and release the Direction button on your transformer.  Just 

as you must stop your car between forward and reverse, this engine will not go

directly from forward to reverse; it goes into neutral between directions.  If the

train has been moving forward, the first press of the Direction button will put

the train from forward into neutral, the second press into reverse, the third

press back into neutral, and the fourth back into forward. To prevent accidental 

high-speed start-ups, this engine is programmed to restart in neutral each time

the track voltage is turned off for 10 seconds or more.
