Installing AAA batteries into the remote control
Use a flathead screw driver to pry up the tab on the tab on the battery compartment hatch and
lift the hatch to open battery compartment (as shown in Figure 1). Insert three AAA batteries
orientating the +/- as shown in the bottom of the battery compartment. Replace the battery door
and snap closed.
Use only Alkaline ‘AAA’ batteries. Use only new batteries. Never mix new and used batteries or use
different types together.

Running your train
Running your locomotive
With track power unplugged, place your train set on the track.
Refer to the following section for information on coupling the cars.
2Plug in your power supply and switch on the remote.
Your locomotive is designed to operate on 18 VDC or VAC. You may choose to
operate the train set using virtually any Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current
transformer or the wall-pack power supply included with the Lionel Thomas & Friends
Remote Train Sets.
Your locomotive is compatible with most direct-current (DC) and alternating-
current (AC) transformers.

Note!
3Move ‘em out!
Use your remote to run your train. You can adjust the speed in forward or reverse,
blow the whistle, sound the bell, or trigger an announcement. Refer to page 12 for com-
plete details.
If your remote control is switched Off while the locomotive is still running,
the locomotive will automatically come to a stop in 10 minutes. To restart
the locomotive, simply unplug the power cord at the terminal section for a
few moments, and then restore power to cycle the locomotive back to normal
operation. If you are done operating your trains, be sure to unplug the wall-
pack power supply from the outlet.
Switch the remote control off to conserve the batteries.
Note!
4Unplug the wall-pack power supply when you are done running
your trains.

Coupling
When coupling your cars, at least one of the mating couplers must be open as shown at the left
in Figure 2. Press down on the lock release to open the coupler, then push the cars toward
each other until they lock together.
Keep in mind that it’s easier to couple cars on a straight stretch of track.

CHUFF
Figure 3. Sound switch location
Silencing the steam chuffing sounds
To silence the steam chuffing sounds, simply lift off Percy's cab roof and slide the CHUFF switch
to the OFF position. See Figure 3. Turn off track power for about two seconds, and then the steam
chuffing sound will be silenced when the track power is restored. The whistle, announcement, and
bell sounds can still be triggered at any time using the remote. To restore the steam chuffing sounds,
simply slide the CHUFF switch to the ON position and then briefly turn off track power.
Always turn off track power for about two seconds after you slide the switch. The
sounds will be reset according to the new switch position when the track power is
switched on again.

Maintaining and servicing your locomotive
Figure 4. Lubrication points
Lubricating your locomotive
H
elp your steam locomotive lead a long and productive life on your railroad by maintaining it
properly.
We recommend that you purchase a Lionel Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (6-62927),
available from your Lionel dealer. Two basic rules to keep in mind: never over-lubricate
(a small amount will do) and avoid getting grease or oil on the locomotive’s wheels, contact
rollers, or your track.
You’ll know your locomotive requires lubrication when visual inspection reveals dryness on the
parts indicated in Figure 4. Remove accumulated dirt and dust before lubricating, and always lubri-
cate any locomotive emerging from prolonged storage.
