If you experience poor or no smoke output when the smoke unit is on and has

fluid, check the wick to see if it has become hard, blackened, and unabsorbent

around theheating element. To remove the smoke unit you will first have to

remove the boiler shell (by removing the body mounting screws shown in Fig. 6

on pg. 13). To do this, follow these instructions:

1. Once the boiler has been removed, locate the smoke unit assemby (see Figure 14).

2. Use a phillips head screwdriver to remove the inspection cover screws as seen in

Figure 15.

3. After removing the inspection cover, inspect the wick. If it is darkly discolored

and hard, it should be replaced.

Replacement parts and wick replacement instructions are available directly from

the M.T.H. Parts Department phone: (order online: www.mth-railking.com, e-mail:
