RailKing 30-91002, 30-91001 User manual

  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant, and I've reviewed the user manual for the M.T.H. RailKing Operating Gas Station. This document covers everything from how to setup this pre-assembled gas station, wiring instructions, and operating procedures; including car operation and light bulb replacement. I'm ready to answer any questions you might have about this device.
  • What does the gas station include?
    Is the gas station pre-assembled?
    How do I start the gas station sequence?
    What kind of power supply does the gas station need?
    How do you replace the light bulbs?
M.T.H.
