5. Assembly Instructions
This model utilizes a mortise and tenon assembly method, requiring no glue for construction. Follow the numbered steps and refer to the diagrams in the included manual for precise guidance.
- Estimated Assembly Time: Approximately 3 hours.
General Steps:
- Prepare Pieces: Carefully detach all 164 pieces from the MDF boards. Use a small tool if necessary to ensure clean breaks. Organize pieces by number or type to streamline the process.
- Assemble Base: Begin by constructing the base of the Eiffel Tower. This section features a detailed Paris map and a 3D 'Paris' design. Ensure all interlocking joints are secure.
- Build Tower Structure: Proceed to construct the main tower sections, working upwards. The mortise and tenon design ensures pieces fit together precisely. Do not force pieces; if they don't fit, recheck the piece number and orientation.
- Integrate Lights: As you build, integrate the string lights according to the manual's instructions, guiding them through the designated channels to illuminate the tower's structure.
- Attach Top Sections: Finally, attach the viewing platform and the romantic dreamy tower top.
- Final Check: Once all pieces are assembled, ensure all connections are firm and the structure is stable.
6. Operating Instructions
Powering the Lights:
- Locate Port: Find the Type-C port on the model's base.
- Connect Power: Connect a compatible Type-C cable (not included) to the port and a suitable power source (e.g., USB adapter, power bank).
- Note: Batteries are not included and are typically forbidden for international air shipping. You may purchase a compatible battery locally if you prefer battery operation over a direct power source.
Lighting Modes:
The model features 4 distinct lighting modes. To switch between modes, gently touch the designated sensor on the model (refer to the manual's diagrams for exact location).
- Constant Light: Provides a steady, continuous illumination.
- Flowing Light: Creates a dynamic, moving light effect.
- Breathing Light: Features a gentle, pulsating light effect.
- Flashing Light: Offers a vibrant, blinking light pattern.
7. Maintenance
- Storage: Keep the model in a dry environment to prevent damage to the wooden components and electronic parts. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Cleaning: Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners, abrasive materials, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the wood finish and electrical components.
- Connections: Periodically check that the Type-C connection is secure and free from debris.
8. Troubleshooting
- Lights not turning on:
- Check if the Type-C cable is securely connected to both the model and the power source.
- Ensure the power source (e.g., USB adapter, power bank) is active and providing power.
- Verify that the string lights are correctly installed and not damaged.
- Pieces not fitting together:
- Double-check the piece numbers against the instruction diagrams to ensure you are using the correct parts.
- Ensure pieces are oriented correctly. The mortise and tenon joints are designed for a snug fit, but should not require excessive force.
- If a piece is slightly tight, gently sand the edges with fine-grit sandpaper (not included) if necessary, but do so sparingly.
9. User Tips
- Battery Option: If you prefer not to use a direct power source, the model's connections are standard, allowing you to purchase and integrate a compatible battery locally.
- Patience is Key: While designed for easy assembly, taking your time with each step will ensure a sturdy and aesthetically pleasing final model. Enjoy the process!
- Display: The assembled model is a beautiful decorative piece. Consider placing it where its lights can be best appreciated, especially in low-light conditions.
