THIS MODEL NEEDS OILING BEFORE USE:

Whilst this model has been pre-lubricated at manufacture, the factory applied lubrication may

have dried out during transit or storage. Therefore please lubricate the visible gears on the

underside and test run before use using a proprietary lubrication. Your local model shop will be

able to advise you in this, however Dapol also sell recommended locomotive oil.

If under test your locomotive is sluggish, or excessively noisy (remembering with proper lubrica-

tion and running in it will quieten down considerably), then you may wish to lubricaste the worms

and their associated bearings. This can easily be done by unclipping the bogie from the chassis

as shown in the accompanying diagram.

Please remember to run your locomotive in for 30 minutes in each direction after lubrication, and

the failure to lubricate your locomotive will result in a voided warranty.
