Lionel 3469 dump car mechanism
Posted by hbraun on Thursday, August 2, 2012 12:57 PM

The  dump function works great; however, door on the body does not close automatically upon return. It will close with a slight tap. Can anyone tell me how to correct this? Thank you.

There is a screw on the gear that closes the door.  Loosen the screw and move the door to the closed position and then tighten the screw.
