After removing the engine from storage, add another 25 drops of fluid, letting the

wick soak up the fluid for 15 minutes prior to operation.

If you experience poor or no smoke output when the smoke unit is on and has

fluid, check the wick to see if it has become hard, blackened, and unabsorbent

around the heating element. To remove the smoke unit you will first have to

remove the body shell. To do this, follow these instructions:

1. Remove the 4 body mount screws, locate the smoke unit assemby.

2. Use a phillips head screwdriver to remove the inspection cover screws.

3. After removing the inspection cover, inspect the wick. If it is darkly discolored

and hard, it should be replaced.

Replacement parts and wick replacement instructions are available directly from

the M.T.H. Parts Department phone: (order online: www.mth-railking.com, e-
