PREMIER AUXILIARY TENDER
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for purchasing the MTH Electric Trains N&W Auxiliary Water
Tender. This die-cast O-Scale replica of the water tender makes a perfect
complement for any owner of a M.T.H. O-Scale N&W steam locomotive and
includes the necessary hardware to configure the Proto-Sound® and
Proto-Coupler® system found in the MTH N&W steam locomotives to
operate the water tender’s own Proto-Coupler.
Configuring the N&W Tender to operate with
the N&W Auxiliary Water Tender
Proto-Coupler®.
For the Auxiliary Water tender’s Proto-Coupler to function, it must be
electrically connected to your N&W Coal Tender. To accomplish this,
there is a preinstalled wire harness inside the Coal Tender that will
connect the two tenders together electrically.
1. First start by using a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 6 chassis
screws securing the Coal Tender’s body to its chassis. Refer to your
N&W Steam Locomotive instruction manual for their specific location.
2. Upon removing the tender body, identify the wire harness, which
should be secured inside the chassis near the Coal Tender’s speaker cone.
Refer to figure 1 and follow how the wire harness is fed through the hole
at the rear of the floor/chassis. Be sure not to bind or twist the harness
during this process.
3. Reinstall the tender body with the six securing screws.
4. You may now select protocoupler operation of either tender by the
switch selection underneath the N&W Coal Tender. Refer to your N&W
Steam Locomotive instruction manual for specific location of the switch.
Proto-Coupler operation is selected by sliding the switch towards the rear
of the Coal Tender for Auxiliary tender Proto-Coupler operation or
forward for coal tender Proto-Coupler operation.
5. After Proto-Coupler operation selection, connect the wire harness plug
from the coal tender to the wire harness connector jack on the Auxilary
tender.
You are now ready to enjoy your new N&W Auxiliary Water tender with
your N&W Steam Locomotive.

OIL & LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
In order for the engine to perform correctly and quietly, it is important
that the chassis be lubricated before operation. Lubrication should include
all truck block bushings and pickup rollers to prevent them from squeaking.
Use light household oil and follow the lubrication points marked “L" in Fig.
2 below.
Periodically, check the locomotive wheels and pickups for dirt buildup as
this can significantly affect the engine’s ability to perform properly. Dirty
track and dirty wheels can cause both poor electrical contact as well as poor
traction, especially on elevated track sections.

HEADLIGHT REPLACEMENT
The N&W Auxiliary Tender contains one 1.5v headlight bulb controlled
by the Premier N&W tender. The headlight bulb simply plugs into its lamp
socket and can be easily removed should the bulb expire.
• To remove the interior bulb, remove the shell by unscrewing the body
mount screws as shown in Figure 2.
• Once the shell has been removed from the chassis, gently pull the bulb to
remove it from the lamp housing.
Replacement bulbs are available directly from MTH Electric Trains.
