Maintenance Lubrication - PIKO BR 132 Bedienungsanleitung

Getting Started: Initial Operation
Unpacking the Model
Remove the styrofoam packaging
extremely carefully to prevent
damaging accessories and attached
parts such as handrails etc.
Initial Operation
We recommend letting the locomotive
run without a train for 30 minutes
in both directions, to properly break
it in. This will help achieve optimal
performance and longevity for the
locomotive. Of course, your model
should only be run on smooth and
perfectly clean tracks with reliable
electrical contact to all track sections.
Technical Data
Power Supply
The model should only be operated on
a pure, filtered DC power supply of 0
to 24 volts, with a capacity of at least
2 Amp and a fast-acting fuse or circuit
breaker to protect against short circuits.
Do not use a power supply which is not
in safe and perfect working condition.
(See "Digital Decoder" section for
operation on digital power.)
Mechanism
The locomotive has two powerful high-
precision motors, which turn the wheels
through a robust gearbox.
Lighting
The model is equipped with automatic
directional headlights, using white LEDs
for a realistic appearance. The "front"
lights are illuminated according to the
travel direction.
High beam digitally switchable. Ready
for Drivers cab light/ engine room light
#36017.
Sounddecoder
The model is factory prepared for the
installation of the PIKO SmartDecoder
XP 5.1 Sound #36526 with original
sound. The PIKO SmartDecoder XP 5.1
Sound #36526 comes with a full range
speaker with waterproof membrane.
After installation of the PIKO
SmartDecoder XP 5.1, the locomotive
can be used with all its digital functions
on digital layouts. When used on
analog layouts, only the driving noise of
the locomotive is reproduced.
Maintenance
Lubrication
After each 25 hours of operation, and
after any long periods of storage, please
lubricate the locomotive's gears with a
sparing amount of plastic-compatible,
non-hardening grease. Remove the
gearbox bottom cover and be careful
to keep the front and rear wheelsets
aligned with each other. Be sure to
securely re-tighten the gearbox bottom
cover screws.
Cleaning
If cleaning is necessary, use only a
mild cleaning agent (such as soap and
water) and gentle action with a soft
non-abrasive cloth or brush. Never
immerse the loco in liquid or "flood"
any internal parts!
Wheel Wipers and pick-Up shoes
should be changed after 500 hours of
operation.
Please Note! Damage to Carpets
and Other Surfaces: Normal
operation of the locomotive
causes wear of mechanical parts
(wheels, electrical pickups etc.). This
produces carbonized dust, grease
and oil, which can permanently
stain carpets, wood floors and
other materials. It is the user's
responsibility to take proper
precautions against this damage.
Wipe any grease or oil from the
track rails with a clean soft cloth.
PIKO Spielwaren GmbH, as well as
its representatives, distributors and
retailers, assume no liability for any
such damage.
Please Note!
