Yes hiding underneath, between the motion couplings.
Korm's photo shows this very well.
right.I seem to remember that some of the early Stainz did not have lens covers fitted from new.
Nice link, however it is the more modern version than Jimmy has so will be quite a bit different. It will be very useful for me as I have 3, two of them in lots of bits to put back together to move on!Stainz disassembly instructions I used

Gap nice instruction, thanks, however, as Jon says this is the newer model, but I believe the principle remain the same.

Using the advice given my Stainz engine block is out:
This shows the screw holes through the the motion couplings, also on one side only a screw hidden away, however the big one is you need to remove (pull out) the front draw bar coupling
So three screws as above and three screws in the base (don't forget the chimney).
Power to the lights is via the contacts shown below

Okay, Glendale do not have lenses, so it would seem Traini is where I will need to go: So moving on I looking for a power socket as per the photo below, additional cable may be handy but the socket shown mounted on the tender is what I what (I think). My rational being that the tender as well powering itself would provide extra feeds to the loco.
Hi Jimmy,
I got my sockets and cables from
Kabelsystem Stocko für LGB und Spur-G Stecker Buchse Adapter ML-Train NEU | eBay
I ordered enough to make it worth the postage, so I have some spare straight and right angled 2 pin sockets. you'ld probably have to make a little right angled bracket to fit it to the inside of the cab, but if you private message me your address I'll send you a couple gratis.
No spare link cables I'm afraid but I may have some spare plugs to make your own with.
Regards,
Paul.
