For LCFM early model 3021 etc., or DCM later model digital etc., in both cases it is just necessary to ease the brush retainer springs back and to one side (I use a very small screw driver for this) then if the brushes won't fall out because of gunk or WHU, try a sharp little "pick" to get them out ! If they do look oily, only then should you have to worry about removing the motor cover, and again a very small (jewellers grade) screwdriver usually helps ! As Stephen was asking, we need to know your V200's Catalogue number to be more specific   |

As Stephen was asking, we need to know your V200's Catalogue number to be more specific I believe the loco is catalogue number 37820 underneath the chasis there is another number H5074 902 I looked at what you said about moving the brush retainer springs but without moving the horse shoe shaped plate with a screw in it, there are a lot of wires in the way! Sorry about the delay struggling with the website

Hi! Originally Posted by: Ricardo watkins Anybody out there .the v200 motor has two suppressors in the way of the carbon brushes also some wiring and this cover plate will not lift of any ideas Did you take both screws out? Can you show us a photo? Under the chassis you find the serial number (not helpful for us). The current manual for the 37820 has 32 pages (copy URL to address field). The front page of the manual usually gives the ref. number of the loco. Which number is on the loco? Is it 221 125-8? Why are you trying to take the motor shield off? What are you trying to achieve? |
