I have 3 no 6 custom line turnout switch. I don’t know how to connect the code 83 switch machine to it. Please help.

you will have to use a under table switch machine, i would not use the atlas one either as i have had plenty of problems with these and since replaced with tortise machines. you could also use a simple ground throw.

The code 83 machines connect pretty easily but there is sort of a trick to it. Read the instruction to find out which ties to line up (That’s NOT the trick![:)]). Then, as you snap in the machine, tilt the machine slightly down from the track and push it into the spaces between the ties.

HTH,
