Maintaining and servicing your EP-5
Replacing your EP-5 lamps
Y
our EP-5 is illuminated by 3 14-volt
lamps. During the course of normal
operation, they may require replacement.
Start by separating the body from the
frame(see page 5).
Each lamp rests in a holder, with its
prongs plugged into a socket. Carefully pull
the bulb straight up out of the holder to
remove it. Replace the expired lamp with

Lubricating your EP-5's Pullmor motor armature
Y
our EP-5 will require occasional lubrication of its Pullmor
motor armature. If you hear excess noise during operation,
or if the locomotive slows down intermittently, you may need to
oil the top armature bearing.
Start by separating the body from the frame (see below for
screw locations). Apply a small amount of Lionel oil (two drops)
in the armature shaft hole.
Finish the job by reinstalling the body shell. Line up the screw
holes and reinsert the screws.
Note!
The Liontech Command reverse unit is a sophisticated electronic device and is
extremely sensitive to static electricity. Please avoid all physical contact with the
R2LC.

Insert the replacement lamp's prongs into
the socket, making sure of a tight connec-
tion. To reinstall the shell, reverse the pro-
cess. Make sure all of the wires are inside
the body before you tighten the screws.
