3.6. Assembly Tips

• Patience is Key: Due to the small size of the blocks, assembly requires patience and precision.
• Use Tweezers (Optional): For very small or hard-to-reach areas, a pair of fine-tipped tweezers can be helpful.
• Work in Sections: Build the model in smaller, manageable sections as outlined in the instructions.
• Check Connections: Ensure each block is firmly pressed into place to prevent the model from falling apart.

4. Operating (Display and Handling)

Once assembled, your nanoblock Flamingo is designed for display. Handle the model with care to avoid accidental disassembly.

• Display Surface: Place the model on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
• Handling: When moving the model, support it from the base to maintain its structure. Avoid gripping individual parts tightly.

5. Maintenance

To keep your nanoblock Flamingo model in good condition:

• Cleaning: Dust the model gently with a soft brush or a can of compressed air. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as these may damage the plastic or loosen connections.
• Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all pieces in a sealed container to prevent loss.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during or after assembly, consider the following:

• Model is unstable/falls apart: Ensure all blocks are fully pressed together. Sometimes a gentle, firm press on the entire model can secure loose connections. Double-check the instruction steps for any missed or incorrectly placed blocks.
• Missing pieces: Carefully re-check your work area. Due to their small size, pieces can be easily overlooked. If a piece is genuinely missing, contact nanoblock customer support (if available in your region) for assistance.
• Difficulty understanding instructions: Review the diagrams closely. nanoblock instructions are primarily visual. If a specific step is unclear, try to visualize the connection from different angles shown in subsequent steps.
