Pipe work/handrails.
Using double pipe brackets (97x3) fit the 0.7mm wire as shown on the R/H side of the locomotive adding pipe fitting (126)
and R/H injector (125). Using pipe brackets (122x4) fit the 0.7mm wire as shown the L/H side of the locomotive adding L/H
injector (127). Fit R/H blow-off cock (83) and L/H blow-off cock (114) to the ash pan and add 0.5mm wire as shown.
Continue detailing, fixing in place water release valves (77), (80), (108) and (109), adding 0.4mm wire as shown. Also add
pump governor (124). Fix mechanical lubricator (110) and steam reverser (112) adding 0.5mm wire as shown. Take the
reversing rod (113) and solder a short length of 0.5mm wire into the hole at one end. Trim the wire flush with the inside of the
reversing rod and protruding lmm on the other side (this will later fit into the reversing lever (209)). Place reversing rod (113)
into reverser (112), placing the short wire spigot (previously soldered) into the top of reversing lever (209).
On the R/H side of the locomotive, add 0.4mm handrail using medium length handrail brackets (88x3), short length handrail
brackets (89x2), medium length handrail bracket (90), long length handrail bracket (91), medium handrail knob (92) and short
handrail knob (93). Fold and fit boiler steps (81x2). Fit two cab steps (84x4).
On the L/H side of the locomotive add 0.4mm handrail using medium length handrail brackets (121x3), short length handrail
brackets (120x2), medium length handrail bracket (119), long length handrail bracket (118), medium handrail knob (117) and
short handrail knobs (116x2). Fold and fit boiler steps (11W).
Complete the addition of handrails, adding 0.4mm wire to the handrail knobs previously fixed to the front of the smokebox.
Also using 0.4mm wire fold and fix handrails to the back of the cab.
Cab Detail Drawing. Add cab floor (101) to the cab. Take the fall plate (99) and fold the tabs down 90°, then glue the
plasticard (100) to the underside trimming so that it overlaps the three outside faces by 0.5mm to prevent it shorting out
against the tender. Attach to the cab floor (101) using 0.7mm wire as shown. Add cab detail (102) and cab seats (103x2). Add
builders plates (B) to the cab sides, checking a photograph or plan for exact location. Some modellers may prefer to fit the cab
roof (52) after final painting.
Fit the locomotive body to the chassis using spacer screws (123x2) at the rear and M2 screw (220) at the front. Note that when
the body and chassis are joined or separated, you will need to clip/unclip the reversing rod (113) and the reversing lever (209).
Lightly oil the mechanism and test run, checking for electrical "shorts" on sharp curves etc. Also check that the motor does not
overheat due to chassis binding.
