• Digging Arm: Controls for Big Arm Rising/Down and Small Arm Rising/Down.
• Digging Bucket: Controls for Bucket Up and Bucket Down.
• Sound Switch: Activates/deactivates realistic sound effects.
• Light Switch: Controls the cab lighting function and other simulated acousto-optic effects.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, gently wipe down the excavator with a dry cloth to remove dirt, dust, or debris. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.
• Tracks: Regularly inspect the alloy crawler tracks for any trapped debris (sand, small stones) and remove them to ensure smooth operation and prevent damage.
• Storage: Store the excavator and remote control in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries from both the excavator and remote control if storing for extended periods.
• Battery Care: Do not overcharge the rechargeable battery. Allow it to cool down before recharging.

7. Troubleshooting

• Excavator not responding:
  • Check if the excavator and remote control are both powered on.
  • Ensure batteries in both devices are fully charged and correctly installed.
  • Re-pair the remote control and excavator (see Section 5.1).
  • Ensure you are within the remote control's operating range (≥ 25 m).
• Weak performance/slow movement:
  • The excavator battery may be low. Recharge it fully.
  • Check for debris in the tracks or moving parts that might be causing resistance.
• Interference during operation:
  • Move to an area with less electronic interference.
  • Ensure no other 2.4GHz devices are operating nearby on the same frequency.
