Attaching the controller wires to the lockon
N
ow you’ll need to insert a controller
wire into each of the two spring clips
on the lockon.
It’s easy! Depress the spring clip with
your finger and insert the bare end of the
wire into the exposed opening. Release the
spring clip. Give the wire a little tug to
make sure it’s secure. Repeat these steps
with the other spring clip. Next, insert the
small plug end of the power pack into the
back of your controller, and plug the other
end into a standard outlet.
If the whistle fails to operate
when you press the whistle but-
ton on your controller (see
page 8), remove the wires from
the lockon and reinsert each one into the
opposite clip to reverse polarity.
Plug this end into
back of controller.
Stripping the wire
O
nce your track is assembled and the
lockon is securely
attached, you can
connect the wires
from the con-
troller to the lock-
on.
First you’ll want
to check the ends of the
wires to make sure that the insulation is
stripped back about 1⁄4" to 3⁄8". To
strip the wires, use a pair
of wire strippers
or a sharp
knife.
Caution:
Only an adult
should perform
this task! Always use
care when stripping wires.
Note
!
Plug power pack
into standard wall
outlet
Make sure that the bare end of
each wire is securely attached
to the spring clip.
