Kadee 708 in N scale Kato Unitrak – Magnetic Uncoupling on demand.

Count and mark 12 ties on a Unitrak section at least 64mm in length.

This coincides with the reinforcement struts on a 128 mm track section.

Cutting with a rotary tool is easiest. I used a Diamond coated cutting wheel.

Cut all the way against the rail, but do not damage the rail itself.

Assemble the uncoupler , making sure that the gap between the uncoupling plates is even to the rail. Using a small hand twist drill make the holes for the outer two screws and tighten them.
