RailKing M10000 Diesel Engine

Initial Lubrication

Although the engine was lubricated at the factory, it is important that you

lubricate the chassis before operation. Lightly grease the outside idler and

drive gears (marked “G” in Fig. 4 on page 9) to prevent them from squeaking.

Use light household oil and follow the lubrication points marked “L” in Fig. 3

on page 8. Do not over-oil. Use only a drop or two on each pivot point.

Connection Instructions

1. Place the engine and cars on straight, level track.

2. Connect the cable between the engine and first car.

3. Press down on the round vestibule over the truck .

4. Slide the tongue on the first car between the depressed vestibule and the

truck.

5. Release the vestibule and listen for the tongue to lock into place.

6. Repeat to connect the second car

In order to disconnect the cars, Simply depress the vestibule and pull the cars

apart. Don’t forget to unplug the cable.

At this point, you are ready to put your engine on the track and begin running

it.

Basic Operation

Throttle – Throttle up the power to your track. Give enough power so that

the engine’s headlight shines brightly. Then put the engine into motion by

either firmly pressing the Direction button on your transformer or remote once

or dropping and advancing the throttle to put the engine in forward.

Operation Buttons

Use the operation buttons on your transformer as described below.

Horn/Whistle - To sound the horn, firmly press the Horn/Whistle button. The

whistle will sound for as long as you continue to depress the button. It will

stop when you release the button. The whistle has four different endings,

depending on whether you hold the button for less than three seconds, three

seconds, four seconds, or five seconds or longer.

Bell - To sound the bell, firmly press and release the Bell button. To turn the

bell off, press and release the Bell button again. The bell will continue to ring

from the time your turn it on until you press and release the button again to

turn it off.

Direction– Your train is programmed to start in neutral. To put the engine

into forward and then to change the direction of the train or to put it into

neutral, firmly press and release the Direction button on your transformer.

Just as you must stop your car between forward and reverse, this engine will

not go directly from forward to reverse; it goes into neutral between

directions. If the train has been moving forward, the first press of the

Direction button will put the train from forward into neutral, the second press

into reverse, the third press back into neutral, and the fourth back into

forward. To prevent accidental high-speed start-ups, this engine is

programmed to restart in neutral each time the track voltage is turned off for

10 seconds or more.

Speed Control:

M.T.H. engines equipped with Loco-Sound have speed control capabilities

that allow the engine to maintain a constant speed up and down grades and

around curves, much like an automobile cruise control. You can add or drop

cars on the run, and the engine will maintain the speed you set.

While the engine is programmed to start with the speed control feature

activated, you can opt to turn it off. This means the engine’s speed will fall as

it labors up a hill and increase as it travels downward. It is also affected by

the addition or releasing of cars while on the run.

To turn speed control on and off,put the engine in neutral, then press the

transformer’s Whistle button firmly but quickly one time then immediately

press the Bell button two times. Repeat the 1 whistle, 2 bells code to return it

to the other state. You will want to do this during the initial neutral upon

start-up if you ever couple this engine to another engine that is not

equipped with speed control to avoid damaging the motors in either

engine. Each time you shut down the engine completely, it will automatically

turn speed control on.

Direction Lock:

You can lock your engine into a directional state (forward, neutral, or reverse)

so that it will not change directions. To do this, put the engine into the

direction you want or into neutral, to lock it into neutral, run it at a very slow

speed (< 10 scale mph), and quickly but firmly press your transformer’s

Whistle button once followed immediately by three presses of the Bell button.

The engine will not change direction (including going into neutral) until you

repeat the 1 whistle, 3 bells code to return the engine to its normal state.

Proto-Cast and Proto-Dispatch:

When used with the RailKing Remote Lock-on (sold separately),

Loco-Sound-equipped engines gain Proto-Cast™and Proto-Dispatch™

features.

Proto-Cast:This feature allows you to play audio recordings through your

engine’s speakers. You must supply the audio source (a small portable is

sufficient) and a male-to-male mini cable (1/8” plug, like that used for the

headset with a portable CD/tape player) to connect your audio source to the

remote lock-on. To use Proto-Cast, simply plug the mini-cable into your audio

source (usually into the headphone jack) and into the “Audio” port on the right

side of the remote lock-on and adjust the volume.

Proto-Dispatch: This feature allows you to broadcast your own voice through

your engine’s speakers. You must supply the microphone and a mini cable

(1/8” plug, like that used for the headset with a portable CD/tape player) to

connect your microphone to the remote lock-on. To use Proto-Dispatch,

simply plug the mini-cable into the microphone and into the “Mic” port on the

left side of the remote lock-on and speak into the microphone.

When these features are in use, the locomotive’s own sounds (engine sounds

and bells, whistles, and horns) will be muted so that only the sounds you

broadcast will be heard. Because these two features are voice activated, there

will be a 10-15 second delay after you stop speaking into the microphone or

turn off the audio source before the engine sounds resume. To stop using the

feature and return to normal operation, unplug the cable from the lock-on jack.

If using parallel tracks with multiple Loco-Sound-equipped engines,

Proto-Cast and Proto-Dispatch transmissions from one track may be picked up

by the other nearby engines.

If you experience popping and interference, try cleaning the track with

denatured alcohol as described in the “Cleaning the Wheels, Tires and Track”

section of this booklet.

Note: M.T.H. does not recommend using Proto-Cast and Proto-Dispatch

at the same time.

Manual Volume Control–To adjust the volume of all sounds made by

this engine, turn the master volume control knob located under the tender

clockwise to increase the volume and counter-clockwise to decrease the

volume (see Fig.2).

Maintenance:

Lubrication and Greasing Instructions

The engine should be oiled and greased in order to run properly.

You should regularly lubricate all outside idler gears and pickup rollers to

prevent them from squeaking. Use light household oil and follow the

lubrication points marked “L” in Fig. 3. Do not over oil. Use only a drop or

two on each pivot point.

The locomotive’s internal gearing was greased at the factory and should not

need additional grease until after 50 hours of operation or one year, whichever

comes first. Use lithium based grease and follow the greasing instructions

below. Note that in some tightly packed engines you may need to move

internal components temporarily in order to access the gears.

1. Remove the Phillips screws from the chassis, as seen in Figure 4, then lift

the body away from the chassis.

2. Remove the truck blocks from the chassis by unscrewing the black Phillips

motor mount screw on the bottom of each truck block, as shown in Figure 4.

3. Once the motor mount screw has been removed, pull the motor away from

the truck block and lightly coat the motor worm gear and bronze drive gear (in

the truck block) with grease (See Figure 4a).

4. Reassemble the truck and motor, being careful not to pinch any wires

between the truck block and motor mount.

5. Repeat the procedure for the other motor and truck

6. Reassemble the chassis and body, being careful that the wires are not caught

between the body and chassis, as this can lead to a short that may damage the

electronics beyond repair.

It is also a good idea to lubricate the outside truck block idler and drive gears

with grease occasionally. Add grease to the points marked with “G” in Figure

Worm Gear (G)

Cleaning the Wheels, Tires and Track

Periodically check the locomotive wheels and pickups for dirt and buildup,

which can cause poor electrical contact and traction as well as prematurely

wear out the neoprene traction tires. Wheels and tires can be cleaned using

denatured alcohol (not rubbing alcohol), which can be found in home

improvement stores, applied with a cotton swab.

Occasional cleaning of the track will also help to ensure good electrical

contact and to prolong the life of your engine’s tires. To clean the track, use a

clean rag and denatured alcohol (not rubbing alcohol). Unplug the transformer

and wipe the rails of the track, turning the rag frequently to ensure that you are

using clean cloth on the rails.

Traction Tire Replacement Instructions

Your locomotive is equipped with two neoprene rubber traction tires on each

powered truck block. While these tires are extremely durable, you may need

to replace them at some point.

First, remove the truck sides from

the truck block. To do this, turn

your engine upside down. If there

are visible Phillips screw heads

between the truck frame and truck

block (see Fig. 5), go to step A. If

not, go to step B.

A. Remove the two Phillips screws

that attach the truck sides to the

truckblock.

B. Remove the trucks from the

chassis and the truck sides from the

trucks in order to slip the new tire

over the grooved drive wheel. See Fig.5 for which screws you must remove

to do this.

Once the truck sides have been removed:

1. Make sure the old tire has been completely removed from the groove in the

drive wheel, using a razor blade or small flathead screwdriver to pry away any

remains.
