Reverse Unit Procedure - Lionel S-2 Owner's Manual

Running your locomotive

Reverse unit procedure

W
hen the reverse unit switch is in the RUN position, your locomotive sequences through a
repeating pattern of operations: forward, neutral, reverse, neutral, and so on.
To "lock" your locomotive into forward operation only, you can deactivate the reverse unit's
sequencing function. Follow the steps below and refer to Figure 2 for the location of the reverse unit
switch.
1. Turn off track power, wait three seconds, and then remove the locomotive from the track.
2. Slide the reverse unit switch to the LOCK position. See Figure 2 for the location of this switch. At
this point, the locomotive is "locked" into forward direction operation.
3. Place your locomotive back on the track. Power up the track and press the DIRECTION button on
your transformer to confirm that the locomotive is locked in forward-only operation.
To restore the forward-neutral-reverse sequence, turn off track power and remove your locomotive
from the track. Slide the reverse unit switch back to the RUN position, then place the locomotive back
on the track.
