Locomotive basics
Adding smoke fluid to your locomotive's smoke generator
Y
our locomotive is equipped with a smoke generator that produces safe, clean, white smoke dur-
ing operation. Add 10-20 drops to the stack (shown in Figure 3) to prime the unit the first time
you run the locomotive or after being stored for an extended period of time. Add 10 to 20 drops to
refill when smoke production decreases.
When refilling, DO NOT EXCEED 20 DROPS as this can cause your smoke unit to become
oversaturated allowing leakage onto the electronics. Note that operating your locomotive's smoke
unit without smoke fluid will cause damage to the heating element.
If you prefer to operate your locomotive without smoke, locate the smoke unit switch and slide it
to the NO SMK position. Refer to Figure 4 on page 8 for the location of the switch.
For best performance, we recommend using Lionel smoke fluid only. Do NOT use smoke
Note!
