Important Notes

If the project will involve drilling, cutting, or filing of metal parts, it is important to
protect any installed electronics from metal debris. De-burr holes that will contain
wires to prevent chaffing. Special precautions should be taken when working on and
around Magne-Traction equipped units that will attract and collect metal debris.
Leave circuit boards in their anti-static packaging until ready to be installed.
Dissipate any static electricity before handling by touching a grounded metal object.
Avoid working on carpeted floors in cool dry areas and, if possible, use an antistatic
wrist strap. It's best to hold circuit boards by the edges and avoid touching contacts
and components.
Take care when connecting or disconnecting cables and plug-in circuit boards. When
disconnecting a cable, always pull on the cable connector, not on the cable itself.
The wire colors used in locomotive production may vary over time and differ from
what is pictured in this manual. Tracing individual wires to their end point to verify
identity is highly recommended.
Pictures of products may vary from actual products received. The Electric Railroad
Company reserves the right to improve the products on successive manufacturing
cycles.
