NER E1 (J72) Steam Locomotive
Owner’s Information
Many thanks for purchasing one of our Bachmann Branchline NER E1 (J72) Steam Locomotives. A lot of care was
taken producing your model and we hope you enjoy it for many years to come.
Although our models are highly detailed and ready to run straight from the box we also supply optional
accessories to be fitted by the owner if they wish.
Welcome
1. Accessories
Please note: This model has been designed to run on curves of no less than 2nd Radius (438mm). We recommend
that you don’t use anything smaller as this may result in the model derailing.
E3106 Instruction Sheet
It is necessary that this Locomotive is ‘run-in’ to allow the mechanism and gears to settle. This requires the model
to be run without a load (wagons, coaches, etc.) for 30 minutes in each direction at half speed.
2. Running-in
All Bachmann Branchline Locomotives are supplied ready lubricated and can be used straight from the box.
Over time your locomotive will require some additional lubrication, when will depend on the frequency of use
and storage, so please inspect your model on a regular basis.
All moving parts of the connecting rods will occasionally need oiling. Apply a single drop of oil to the areas
indicated in pink below (fig.2) and to the corresponding points on the other side.
