Follow these steps to assemble your Piko H0 A-Track Set C:

1. צוגרייטונג: Ensure your layout surface is clean, flat, and stable.
2. קאַנעקטינג שפּור ברעקלעך: Each track piece features a robust connection system. Align the rail joiners of one track piece with the rails of the next piece. Gently push them together until they are firmly seated. Ensure a secure and flush connection for optimal electrical conductivity and smooth train operation.
3. Turnout Installation: Install the left and right hand turnouts as desired for your track layout. Ensure the turnout mechanism operates freely before connecting adjacent track sections.
4. Layout Design: Refer to the provided track plan diagram for a suggested layout configuration. The Piko A-Track system offers unlimited expansion possibilities, allowing you to create various track shapes beyond the basic oval.

4. אפעראציע באטראכטונגען

The Piko H0 A-Track Set C provides the foundation for your model railway. To operate a train, you will need a compatible H0 scale locomotive, rolling stock, and a DC power supply (transformer/controller), which are sold separately. Connect your power supply to the track using appropriate feeder wires (not included) to provide electrical current to the rails.

Ensure that your locomotive and rolling stock are clean and in good working order for smooth operation on the track. The track's nickel silver rails provide excellent electrical conductivity for reliable train movement.

Proper maintenance will extend the life and ensure the reliable operation of your Piko H0 A-Track:

• רייניקונג רעלסן: Regularly clean the top surface of the rails with a specialized track cleaning fluid and a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive materials that can scratch the rail surface.
• באַזייַטיקונג פון שטויב: Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust and debris from between the sleepers and around the turnouts.
• קשר טשעק: Periodically inspect all track connections to ensure they remain tight and free of corrosion. Loose connections can cause power interruptions.
• סטאָרידזש: When not in use, store track pieces in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.

If you encounter issues with your Piko H0 A-Track, consider the following:

• Intermittent Power / Stalling Trains:
  • קאָנטראָלירט אַלע רעלס פֿאַרבינדונגען פֿאַר פעסטקייט.
  • Clean the rail surfaces thoroughly.
  • Ensure feeder wires from the power supply are securely connected to the track.
  • Verify that the locomotive wheels are clean and making good contact with the rails.
• דירעילמענטס:
  • Inspect track joints for misalignment or gaps.
  • Ensure turnouts are fully switched to the desired direction.
  • Check for any foreign objects on the track.
  • Verify that the track is laid on a flat and stable surface.
