அமைவு
- தளவமைப்பு திட்டமிடல்: Before installing, plan your track layout carefully. Ensure the R7 radius (1564.6 mm) and 22.5° curve angle of this switch fit your design.
- Track Preparation: Ensure the track sections connecting to the switch are clean and free of debris. The rail ends should be straight and undamaged.
- இணைப்பு: Align the switch with the existing track sections. Carefully push the rail joiners together to create a secure electrical and mechanical connection. Ensure the rails are flush and there are no gaps or misalignments that could cause derailments.
- Securing the Track: Once positioned, secure the switch to your layout base using appropriate track fasteners (e.g., track nails, screws, or ballast adhesive) to prevent movement during operation.
- சோதனை: After installation, manually operate the switch several times to ensure smooth movement of the points. Run a train slowly over the switch in both directions to confirm proper alignment and operation.
இயக்க வழிமுறைகள்
The PIKO G Scale Manual R7 Curved Switch Left is operated manually. To change the direction of the train, you must physically move the switch lever located at the base of the switch.
- திசையை மாற்றுதல்: Gently push the switch lever to the desired position. The points (movable rails) will shift to align with either the straight track or the curved track.
- Confirm Position: Always visually confirm that the points are fully seated against the stock rails before allowing a train to pass over the switch. Improperly set points can lead to derailments.
- Electric Drive (Optional): If you have installed the PIKO electric drive (item no. 35271), refer to its specific instruction manual for details on electrical connection and remote operation.
பராமரிப்பு
Regular maintenance ensures reliable operation and extends the lifespan of your switch.
- Cleaning Rails: Keep the rail surfaces clean from dirt, dust, and oxidation. Use a track cleaning tool or a soft cloth with a suitable track cleaning fluid.
- Cleaning Moving Parts: Periodically inspect the switch points and the throw mechanism. Remove any accumulated dust, debris, or ballast particles that might hinder smooth movement. A small brush or compressed air can be useful.
- உயவு: Lightly lubricate the pivot points of the switch mechanism with a small amount of plastic-compatible lubricant if movement becomes stiff. Avoid over-lubrication, as it can attract dirt.
- ஆய்வு: Regularly check for loose connections, damaged rail joiners, or bent rails. Address any issues promptly to prevent operational problems.
சரிசெய்தல்
| பிரச்சனை | சாத்தியமான காரணம் | தீர்வு |
|---|---|---|
| Switch points do not move smoothly. | Debris in mechanism, lack of lubrication, bent components. | Clean the mechanism, apply light lubricant, inspect for damage. |
| Train derails when passing over the switch. | Improperly set points, misaligned track, dirty rails. | Ensure points are fully seated, check track alignment, clean rails. |
| No electrical contact through the switch. | Dirty rails, loose rail joiners, internal wiring issue (if applicable). | Clean rails, check rail joiner connections. |
