over the wheel. If a twist occurs, the tire will have to be removed and
reinstalled or a noticeable wobble in your engine will occur when operating
the locomotive. In addition, it is important to make sure that the tire is
fully seated inside the groove. Any portion of the tire extending out of the
groove can cause the engine to wobble. A razor blade can be used to trim
away any excess tire that doesn't seat itself inside the groove properly.
Replacement tires are available directly from MTH Electric Trains.
HEADLIGHT REPLACEMENT (2 and 3-Rail)
The locomotive's headlights are controlled by the track voltage and will
glow with greater intensity depending on the transformer voltage setting.
The headlight can be easily removed from its lampholder should the bulb
expire. To remove the bulb, follow the boiler removal instructions found in
the Lubrication section on the proceeding pages. Once the boiler has been
separated from the chassis, gently pull the bulb harness from its socket
inside the boiler. Replacement bulbs are available directly from MTH
Electric Trains.
