Rugged Rails 2-8-0 Steam Engine
Placing The Engine On The Track
Place the engine on the track, then insert the reverse unit plug that extends out of
the tender into the receptacle at the back of the boiler cab (Figure 3. WARNING:
DO NOT CONNECT THIS ENGINE TO A TENDER FROM ANOTHER
ENGINE; IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS
DAMAGE. Look at the bottom of the
engine and tender where each will have a color-coded stamp. If they match you
may connect those two pieces; if not, don’t.)
Connect the draw bar between the
engine and tender. The draw bar hole
located farthest from the tender is
for applications such as display.
The second hole is for normal operation
on the track.
At this point, you are ready to begin
running your engine.
Checking The Battery
You may find, if your locomotive was built several months before you set it up,
that the rechargeable battery has run down and needs to be charged before
operating. If you notice that the sounds are garbled, test and charge the engine as
described in the "Self-Charging Battery Back-Up" on page16.
