Features And Operation - M.T.H. SD70ACe Engineer's Manual

SET-UP
Lubrication
Using light machine or household oil, apply a very small amount to all axles
points as shown.
Your gearbox is properly greased at the factory and probably never needs service
however, if you run excessive hours pulling heavy loads, it's a good idea to
remove the 2 screws from the gearbox cover and re-grease using M.T.H. gear
grease or equivalent.

FEATURES AND OPERATION

Now, for the fun stuff! Your new M.T.H. HO Diesel Engine has more features
and operating capabilities than any HO engine ever built by any manufacturer.
We're going to walk you through everything she does in general but, you'll
probably find a few we forgot to mention on your own.
Conventional Operation Jumpers
Your MTH DCC Ready engine has pre-installed jumpers that allow for out-of-
the-box operation. However, you can remove these jumpers to change the
lighting to your liking. You can shut off the Ditch Lights or the Number Board
Lights by removing the jumpers on the engine's circuit board. Please refer to
Removing Jumpers in the DCC Operation section of this manual.
It is important to note that there two sets of jumpers that route track power to
your engine's motor. These must be installed when operating in Conventional DC
mode.
Don't worry. We've taken care of the hard part for you. Your MTH DCC Ready
engine already has the jumpers installed at the factory so all you have to do is set
it on the rails, apply DC power and away you go.
