Lubricating Your Locomotive - GE VISION Line ES44AC Owner's Manual

Maintaining and servicing your locomotive

Lubricating your locomotive

H
elp your Lionel locomotive lead a long
and productive life on your railroad
by maintaining it properly. To keep your
locomotive lubricated, we recommend that
you purchase a Lionel Lubrication and
Maintenance Kit (6-62927), available from
your authorized Lionel dealer.
When you find that the lubrication
points illustrated in Figure 9 appear dry,
lubricate your locomotive after you have
removed any accumulated dirt and dust.
There are two basic rules to keep in mind
when you are lubricating your locomotive:
use only a small amount of lubrication
and avoid getting grease or oil on your
locomotive's wheels, roller pick-ups, or the
track.
