Before use, please ensure that your desired coupler fits the NEM pocket by checking it before removing a pocket from the sprue.

Wagons or carriages typically have a push-fit tension lock, which engages around a central post covered by a plastic clip to hold the tension lock in place.

Once you're happy and confident, fix it in place with some epoxy adhesive, ensuring that you leave enough margin to prevent any glue from seeping into the NEM pocket channel.
