Operating your generator car
Y
our generator car starts and stops its action when you open (or close) its side door. When
the door is opened, the interior illuminates the huge diesel-electric generator. It begins to
hum and a ventilating fan begins to turn. This action continues (whether the generator car is
stationary or in motion) until the door is closed.
Connect the tree only when your generator car is stationary.
Before you run your generator car, you must first remove the interior rubber band
Note!
from around the generator and install the light dispersion assembly and coil shield
as shown in Figure 3 on page 3.
Note!
If your railroad is powered by constant voltage (18 volts), position your generator
car on a siding with lower voltage (under 14 volts). The generator car operates best
between 10-14 volts.
