While I have my OTTO locomotive (LGB 92179) on the work bench to add some Bertram Heyn detail parts, I thought that I would take the opportunity to fit a LGB Smoke Unit. I purchased the latter a couple of years ago - part number 65803, 18v- and, along with a number of other tasks, I'm now ready to complete them!
As always, I'm seeking advice, please, from Forum members who may have carried out this specific operation. I'm happy with the mechanical aspects of disassembling the loco, having done so once already, and with the process of fitting the unit into the chimney, but:
[UL][*]Basically, is the unit I have purchased the appropriate one for an OTTO?[*]Would I be correct to think that the unit connector leads (grey and black) should be soldered direct to the motor feed wires? [/UL] Sorry for the elementary nature of this query, but my OTTO loco is an excellent runner and I have no wish to do it harm!
With best wishes
