Trains in each block are controlled by separate transformers. Before you operate your trains on this type of layout, be sure that your transformers are in phase. -
Page 8: Transformer And Short Circuits
Controller operations Transformer and short circuits our Lionel power pack is listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and has been carefully designed and tested to ensure peak performance. The Transformer is equipped with a built-in electronic circuit breaker that alternately cuts off and restores the flow of power to the track whenever a short circuit exists—for example, when the train derails. -
Page 9: Train Operation
Refer to page 12 for information on coupling the cars. Power up your locomotive with your transformer. Your locomotive is designed to operate on 7-15 volts alternating cur- rent. Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current transformers are suitable. Note! Do not power your locomotive with direct current (DC) transformers. -
Page 10: Transformer Functions
Train operation Transformer functions s you turn the throttle control knob to the right, power to the track is increased. Figure 5 illustrates the throttle control knob settings. When the indicator reaches the green band, there should be sufficient power to operate the locomotive. The farther into the green area the knob is turned, the faster your train will go. -
Page 11: Reverse Unit Procedure
Locomotive operation Reverse unit procedure he electronic reverse unit inside your Lionel locomotive acts like the transmission in a car. When you apply power to the track, the locomotive moves in the direction specified by the reverse unit—or it sits in neutral, awaiting another power interruption. Power interruptions are the signal that tells the reverse unit to sequence to the next operational state. -
Page 12: Horn Operation
During the course of normal operations, the traction tires may become worn out. See your authorized Lionel Service Center for assistance. Refer to the Service Center list that is packed with this set. -
Page 13: Maintaining And Servicing Your Set
We recommend that you purchase a Lionel Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (6-62927), available from your Lionel dealer. Two basic rules to keep in mind: never over-lubricate (a small amount will do) and avoid getting grease or oil on the locomotive’s wheels, contact rollers, or your track. -
