Fitting your Class 37 Headcodes

Te whakauru i o Waehere Upoko o te akomanga 37

Richard Watson

Kua hokona e koe to karaehe 37 moata hou, kare e kore kua kite koe i nga upoko o nga pito o te tauira. He mahi nui enei ki te tautuhi i nga waka tereina me o ratou tereina hei tohu ki runga, ki raro hoki i te whatunga, kia mohio ai ratou ki te momo o te tereina me tona huarahi kua whakaritea. Ma tenei aratohu ngawari e whakaatu ki a koe me pehea te whakarereke ngawari i nga upoko o to locomotive kia rite ki o hiahia.


Hipanga tuatahi: Tangohia te tinana mai i te tahuhu ma te tawai i te tinana ki runga i nga topenga e wha (e rua kei ia pito o te tauira). He pai ake te mahi i mua i te taapiri i nga taipitopito kurupae. 

Hipanga tuarua: Hurihia te tinana ka kimihia te taha o muri o nga pouaka pane.

Hipanga tuatoru: Peia ata te mata pane ki waho o te tinana, kia pai ake ai te whakamahi i tetahi taputapu puhuki iti penei i te huriwiri upoko papatahi a te kaihanga tauira. Ina tangohia, ka taea te wehe kia toru nga wahanga, ko te mata upoko, ko te upoko upoko me te anga tautoko. 

Hipanga tuawha: I roto i to pouaka Locomotive, kua whakaratohia e matou he huinga katoa o nga nama Headcode me tetahi pepa tohutoro mo to waatea. Tīpakohia ko tēhea kōwhiringa e pai ana ki tō tahora. 

Hipanga tuarima: Whakapirihia he anga ki muri o te nama kua kowhiria, me mahara kei te piri tonu nga nama upoko, na tenei ka mau tonu te anga i te wa e whakahaere ana.

Hipanga tuaono: Inaianei tuuhia te anga ki runga o roto o te mata upoko. Tuhia te waahi o te kakau i te wa e whakarite ana i te takotoranga o nga tau.

Hipanga tuawhitu: Ko te whakakapi i nga kanohi o te upoko ki runga i te waka, ka hiahia pea ratou ki te topata iti o te kāpia PVA kia mau tonu ai. Ka tūtohu matou ki te PVA na te mea ka taea te tango a muri ake nei mena ka hiahia koe ki te whakarereke i nga nama a muri ake nei. 

Hipanga waru: Ahakoa ka tangohia te tinana mai i te Chassis, he wa pai tenei ki te taapiri i tetahi kaihopu Accurascale ki to locomotive. (https://www.accurascale.com/collections/crews-and-people)

Whakapiri noa ki te waahi me te pata o te PVA hei whakaoti i te ahua.

Inaianei kua oti to riiki, kua reri ki te mahi i to tahora.

Fitting your Mk2 Coaches with Curtains

Richard Watson

Take your new Accurascale Mk2 coaches to a whole new level of realism! Using the simple guide below, we'll show you how to quickly and easily install the supplied curtains to your coaches for maximum results, all you'll need is some glue and a craft knife! Step one: Unclip the body via four clips, two located on each side just next to the bogies. Their location is indicated in the following two photos. Step two: Find the plastic sheet with printed curtains from inside the carriage box. Then cut the curtains out of the acetate sheet using a craft knife or scissors, cutting down the black lines on each side of the curtains.  Step three: Once you have prepared the curtains, test fit before adding the glue to make sure they fit where you'd like to position them. Once happy spread a thin line of PVA or similar glue along the edges. Step four: Place the curtain section over the desired window and firmly press and hold with a finger. After a few seconds, the glue should be tacky enough to hold the curtain in place.  Step five: Turn the body over and check that the curtains are straight with no glue is visible on the window.  Fit the curtains to one side of the coach and allow to dry. Apply the other side and allow to dry. Once happy, let the glue dry overnight before reassembly.  Once both sides are fully dry you can clip the body back in place and enjoy.
