READ ME
Just like us, we are sure you hate reading manuals, but you should. Really. ere is important
stu in here
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
is OPERATORS manual will cover the details of model that you have purchased, including how to service, repair
and operate the functions on your new model. Like all models, these models should be handled with care. Our models
are meant to be enjoyed with your eyes and ears, and should not be handled unless when needed; is isn’t because of
faulty or shoddy construction, but so the oils on your hands do not settle on the boiler or other parts causing unsightly
ngerprints. ere are also several small components on your model that could be jarred loose from over handling,
and as such, let us reiterate, it should always be handled with care - in any service procedure or operations session.
e D-10h Locomotive features the following DIE-CAST parts:
boiler, boiler support, tender chassis, leading truck centre weight, gear housing and internal uid
retainer casting. Needless to say there is a lot of weight in your model due to the die-cast
Please take care that your locomotive does not come into contact with any live wires other than the
intented powered track, this could lead to a disastrous outcome and is not covered by warranty.
SAFETY WARNING:
Your locomotive and tender has been checked at the factory and has had approx. 1 hour of run time
already on it. While we strive to nd all the faults before they get out, we are only human. Please
check your locomotives operation on a test track to ensure that it is funtioning.. FAILURE TO DO
SO MAY RESULT IN UNWANTED SHORTS OR LAYOUT DAMAGE WHICH WE CANNOT
BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR AS WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE ENVIRONMENT.
Operators Service Manual - PROCEDURE FOR SMOKE OPERATION.
You can choose to operate the smoke
unit, but rst you will need to ll the
uid reservoir with uid. A cross
section of the locomotive shows that
the reservoir is located underneath
the smoke stack. 10 drops of uid
is enough. Over lling the reservoir
should be avoided but will cause no
damage to the unit. You may experience liquid dripping out the bottom of
your locomotive if this happens by the
bleeder valve. is is not a cause for
concern.
e smoke feature is controlled by a
micro switch located underneath the
sand dome. To remove the sand dome,
you must pull STRAIGHT up. DO NOT
li on an angle. is will cause damage to the support pins.
Regular maintenance is a vital part of any electrical toy. While we have tried to make service intervals as infrequent as possible, you should be aware that lubrication may need to be performed at some
time. Our Bronzite bushings use a self-lubricating formula, as the axles turn and generate heat, the
bushings release an oil that both lubricates and polishes the axle at the contact point, allowing for
better electrical connections and less oen servicing. Small bits of debris may get stuck to the lubrication and axles during operation. Aer operation; or if you notice erratic running, Check the axles for
layout bits, hair or other loose items that may nd there way into the operational area. When handling
the locomotive, please be careful as there are small parts that can be bent out of place or broken o. To
avoid the spread of oils on your model, it is recommended that you use rubber gloves or nger cots - if
you do get nger prints on your model, you can clean them a cotton swab. DO NOT USE ACETONE
or other harsh cleaning checmicals, as this may damage your model. For information on how to service your model, please see the next page.
Operators Service Manual - PROCEDURE FOR GREASE AND LUBRICATION.
- REQUIRED - #0 Phillips screw driver, lite oil, lite grease, work station
On the bottom of your locomotive, there are a series of 6 (six) screws that secure the gear cover on.
Placing the locomotive on a secure work station,
such as a foam cradle, remove these screws. Place
these screws somewhere where you will not lose
them. A small dish or container is suggested to
hold these screws and stop them from rolling o
your work station.
Aer you have removed the screws and placed
them in a safe location, li o the GEAR COVER.
Li the cover STRAIGHT UP taking care not to
damage the moulded brake supports. is will
expose the IC and PICK-UPS and 6 more screws.
Remove these 6 (six) screws and the IC and PICK
UPS. Please take notice: DO NOT BEND THE
ELECTRICAL PICK UPS! Creasing or crimping
them will result in erratic pickup.
At this stage, you have successfully gained access
to the DRIVE TRAIN, axles and gears. A small
amount of lubrication placed on the teeth of the
gears, and light oil placed on the axles will ensure
smooth, trouble free operation. e locomotive
has these applied at the factory and will NOT
require these as new. Only do this if you notice
erratic operation. At this point aer lubrication is
completed, you can reassemble the drive. Service
is complete.
Operators Service Manual - MOTOR REPLACEMENT
is servicing requires a steady hand, knowledge of electrical circuits and time. Do not perform this
service if you are uncertain of your skill.
Like all motors or things with moving parts, parts have a tendency to wear down, even when maintained. As the main source of power for your locomotive, your motor undergoes stresses such as
voltage variation, torque fatique, fatigued springs or worn brushes and commutator. At some point,
your motor may require servicing or replacement. To gain access to the motor, the boiler will need
to be removed. We have made this as easy as we could while maintaining aesthetics and operational
validity.
- REQUIRED - #0 Phillips screw driver, grease, soldering iron, ux, small at head screw driver
CONT’D
To remove the boiler, you will need to remove the 2
(two) screws as highlighted in the rendering to the
le. Place these screws in a safe, secure location
Tilting the boiler from the BACK forward (as depicted
in the illustration) slide the boiler o. is will leave
exposed the motor, universal, worm gear cover, and
ywheel. Place the boiler in a safe place where not
damage will occur.
Using a small at head screwdriver, pry o the worm gear
cover, exposing the worm gear. At this point, you can
service the motor by de-soldering the leads and replacing
or changing. Please note that changing any electronics
in your locomotive will void your warranty.
Now is a good time to access the drive mechanism
should you need to lubricate and service. With
the boiler and motor removed you will need to
remove the screw cover on the cab oor. e two
screws secure the boiler bottom, which can now li
straight out.
With the chassis exposed, you can put lite GREASE
in the service hole of the drive mechanism. Not
much grease is needed, and be carefull NOT to
over pack the drive with grease. ere is a CAM
located on the front axle that will not function correctly if coared in grease. You can also remove the
2 cover screws (shown in RED) to access the worm
gear, idler gear and counter gears. While there is
rarely need for servicing in this area, it does happen on occassion.
If grease gets between the worm gear assembly
(worm gear, washer, bronzite bushings) you should
remove the grease and use lite oil. e metal on
metal contact surfaces require lit oil to penetrate the
tight tolerances. GREASE WILL NOT CORRECTLY
LUBRICATE THE WORM GEAR WASHERS AND
BUSHINGS AND MAY RESULT IN MECHANISM
FAILURE IF NOT CORRECTLY APPLIED.
e bronzite bushing
requires lite oil for correct
lubrication and operation!
is cross section shows
the gears in operatioal
order. Modication of
gears will result in erratic
running. DO NOT USE
ANY OTHER GEARS
FOR OPERATION.
e front driver axle has a CAM on it and is NOT a geared driver. is
allows the optional smoke unit to synchronize with the drivers as they push
the pistons.
MODIFICATIONS TO THE DRIVE WILL VOID ANY AND ALL
WARRANTIES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PRODUCT
DCC / DC / SOUND:
Your model features a DUAL MODE decoder. Able to switch from DC to DCC automatically. Sounds
are from actual D-10 recordings and have been digitally re-created to bring you these authentic sounds.
While we have worked very hard with DIGISIGHT Technologies to make our custom decoder, you can
use any 21 pin decoder. Please note that if you change your decoder, it will void your electronics warranty.

Warranty
Each locomotive leaves the factory aer careful inspection and running to ensure that all mechanisms
and features are operative. While damage may occur from handling by shipping and courier companies,
we have designed our packaging to absorb most of the jolting that may occur, however some damage
may still occur. Small parts that become dislodged, loose or fall o during transport are NOT covered
under warranty for service, however, pieces that may have become damaged in transit we will replace
for you under warranty without question with a valid proof of purchase. If you have purchased the
unit directly from us, there is no need to provide additional paperwork. If you receive your locomoitve
completely damaged beyond what you may consider an acceptable amount, please DO NOT USE your
locomotive. We will call for a pick up to have your unit replaced under warranty. Should you choose to
run your unit in this damaged state we will take to mean that you have accepted the condition that your
locomotive is in and that you are able accept the condition that it is in. Please note that if you choose
to run your locomotive in this state, we cannot be held responsible to damage that may occur on your
layout or other trains.
While we have yet to see a locomotive that is in this much need of repair, it is better we set the rules
down now.
All units are warranted against manufacturers defects in running and aesthetics for 45 days from the
original date of purchase from the ORIGINAL purchaser.
For warranty issues, we will try to trouble shoot the problems rst by email or phone. Sending a
model train back and forth can sometimes cause more damage than it can x. Simply send a photo to
us at service@shiratrains.ca along with your questions or concerns and we will get back to you as soon
as we can to ensure that your down time is set to a minimum.
