2. Safety instructions
Mechanical hazards
Cut wires can have sharp ends and can cause serious injuries. Watch
out for sharp edges when you pick up the PCB.
Visibly damaged parts can cause unpredictable danger. Do not use
damaged parts: recycle and replace them with new ones.
Electrical hazards
Touching powered, live components,
touching conducting components which are live due to malfunction,
short circuits and connecting the circuit to another voltage than
specified,
impermissibly high humidity and condensation build up
can cause serious injury due to electrical shock. Take the following
precautions to prevent this danger:
Never perform wiring on a powered module.
Assembling and mounting the kit should only be done in closed,
clean, dry rooms. Beware of humidity.
Only use low power for this module as described in this manual and
only use certified transformers.
Connect transformers and soldering irons only in approved mains
sockets installed by an authorised electrician.
Observe cable diameter requirements.
After condensation build up, allow a minimum of 2 hours for
dispersion.
Use only original spare parts if you have to repair the kit or the
ready-built module.

Fire risk
Touching flammable material with a hot soldering iron can cause fire,
which can result in injury or death through burns or suffocation.
Connect your soldering iron or soldering station only when actually
needed. Always keep the soldering iron away from inflammable
materials. Use a suitable soldering iron stand. Never leave a hot
soldering iron or station unattended.
Thermal danger
A hot soldering iron or liquid solder accidentally touching your skin can
cause skin burns. As a precaution:
use a heat-resistant mat during soldering,
always put the hot soldering iron in the soldering iron stand,
point the soldering iron tip carefully when soldering, and
remove liquid solder with a thick wet rag or wet sponge from the
soldering tip.
Dangerous environments
A working area that is too small or cramped is unsuitable and can cause
accidents, fires and injury. Prevent this by working in a clean, dry room
with enough freedom of movement.
Other dangers
Children can cause any of the accidents mentioned above because they are
inattentive and not responsible enough. Children under the age of 14
should not be allowed to work with this kit or the ready-built module.
Caution: Little children can swallow small components with
sharp edges, with fatal results! Do not allow components to reach
small children.
In schools, training centres, clubs and workshops, assembly must be
supervised by qualified personnel. In industrial institutions, health and
safety regulations applying to electronic work must be adhered to.

3. Safe and correct soldering
Caution:
Incorrect soldering can cause dangers through fires and heat. Avoid
these dangers by reading and following the directions given in the
chapter Safety instructions.
Use a small soldering iron with max. 30 Watt or a regulated
soldering iron.
Only use electronic tin solder with flux.
When soldering electronic circuits never use soldering-water or
soldering grease. They contain acids that can corrode components
and copper tracks.
Solder quickly: holding the iron on the joints longer than necessary
can destroy components and can damage copper tracks or soldering
eyes.
Apply the soldering tip to the soldering spot in such a way that the
part and the soldering eye are heated at the same time.
Simultaneously add solder (not too much). As soon as the solder
becomes liquid take it away. Hold the soldering tip at the spot for a
few seconds so that the solder flows into the joint, then remove the
soldering iron.
Do not move the component for about 5 seconds after soldering.
To make a good soldering joint you must use a clean and unoxidised
soldering tip. Clean the soldering tip with a damp piece of cloth, a
damp sponge or a piece of silicon cloth.
After soldering, check the PCB tracks for solder bridges and short
circuits created by accident. This would cause faulty operation or, in
the worst case, damage. You can remove excess solder by putting a
clean soldering tip on the spot. The solder will become liquid again
and flow from the soldering spot to the soldering tip.

4. Operation overview
Locomotive decoders designed to control alternating current (a.c.)
motors are – in contrast to decoders for direct current (d.c.) motors –
not load regulated (except few versions). In order to control a.c. motors
with a load regulated decoder (for d.c. motors) you can exchange the
field coil for a permanent magnet, thus converting the a.c. motor into a
d.c. motor.
The motor modification set contains a permanent magnet, suitable for
use with one of the different motor types (large or small flat circleshaped commutator motor or drum-shaped commutator motor),
depending on the version (PM-1, PM-2 or PM-3). Note: With some
locomotive models rotors and engine plates have been mounted not
fitting to any of the three versions of the permanent magnet.
As a matter of principle interference voltages occur with all locomotive
motors transmitting the voltage from the turning rotator via brushes. In
order not to disturb broadcast and TV reception, factory-made there
are suppression devices mounted at the locomotive motor.
The interference voltages (the so-called "brush-sparking") rise with
increasing abrasion. They can disturb the data transfer to the
locomotive decoder (and thus affect the driving characteristics). It is
even possible that the emerging current-peaks damage components on
the decoder. For that reason it is generally recommended to mount
suppression devices in addition to those mounted by the l ocomotive
manufacturer when mounting a permanent magnet into a priority
locomotive model.

6. Converting the motor
Preliminary work
Desolder the connection from the field coil to the engine plate
(directly on the engine plate).
If present: desolder the noise suppression choke. Tip: You can solder
this choke into the input lead from the slider to the locomotive
decoder and thus improve the noise suppression.
If present: desolder the noise suppression capacitors, discluding the
one at the motor (between the motor connections).
Take out the brushes. When doing so lift the pressure springs
cautiously to the side!
Release both screws at the engine plate and take out the engine
plate.
Take out the rotator cautiously! Tip: Use this opportunity to
overhaul the motor.
Take out the field coil. It will not be needed any more.
Note: Rotor and field coil are held to their position by the engine plate.

Mounting the permanent magnet
Install the permanent magnet instead of the field coil. Attention:
Do not apply force when installing the magnet. If necessary check if
you have to turn the magnet or if you have chosen the wrong type
(e.g. instead of a magnet for a small flat circle-shaped commutator
motor a magnet for a drum-shaped commutator motor).
Insert the rotor, attach the engine plate and fix it with both screws.
This fixes the permanent magnet, too. Attention: Do not tighten
the screws too firmly! The engine plate made of plastic could be
damaged and / or the engine running could be obstructed.
Insert the brushes and put the pressure springs cautiously onto the
brushes.
Mounting additional suppression devices
Solder the additional suppression chokes (included in the package)
into the two input leads from the decoder to the motor.
Solder the additional suppression capacitor (included in the package)
on to the engine plate. If a capacitor soldered in by the locomotive
manufacturer is present, solder the additional capacitor in parallel to
it.
Attention:
When the motor is not supressed sufficiently, the interference signals
affect the data transfer to the decoder. This affects the locomotive´s
driving characteristics (e.g. rocking or bucking). It is even possible
that the emerging current-peaks damage components on the decoder.
When brushes, the rotor or the motor are intensely worn, mounting
additional suppression devices is not sufficient to absorb the occuring
interference signals. In these cases you have to exchange the
components in question.

Testing
Before mounting a locomotive decoder, you should always check with
your hand if the wheels turn easily. If not, maybe the screws at the
engine plate have been tightened too firmly or the rotor has been
incorrectly mounted.
Attention:
With stiff wheels the motor current will be increased. A too high motor
current can cause (irreparable) damages at the locomotive decoder!
