RIBU®-Train
Connecting System
with the RIBU®-Train – Connecting
system we offer a well proved coupling system to allow to run HO model trains buffer to buffer like in original.
In our program we have short coupling unit which is pre-de-coupling and will fit in the NEM 362 coupler pocket.
We also have fixed coupler units. Further details you will find explained with each product description.

SKK 501 System which is pre-de-coupling,
This system is designed for exchange of HO coupler for locomotives and cars which do have a coupler pocket according NEM 362.

| The replacement is very simple and will be explained in the following |
 |
Step 1.
First define the correct coupling shaft. If our part number 85503 KKD is too large you can use part number 85504 SKD.
Now you have to create enough space on the base of the car. It might be required that you have to mill a plane cut out. Make sure there is enough space in height for the axle. |
|
 |
 |
Step 2.
If this has been completed, the motion link box should fit in (as shown on the picture)
Now you can fit in the coupling system.
|
|
 |
 |
Step 3.
Now you place the motion link box into the cut out you have made before.
Insert the NEM coupler pocket on to the motion link (blue coloured on the picture).
In the packing box of the set P/N 85504 SKD you will find a gauge,
to be used as coupling head, to adjust the coupling system. The cinematic is correctly
adjusted when the two cut outs on the gauge are resting on the track and the gauge touches the buffers.
At this time you can glue the link bock on to the car. |
|
 |
 |
Step 4.
After the blue is hardened, you can assemble the cinematic. The picture shows you how it should look like.
Bear in mind, that the exceeding fixture pins needs to be cut off.
