Display and Handling
Once assembled, your LOZ Santa María model is designed for display. Place it on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and high humidity to preserve its condition.
Handle the model carefully to prevent accidental disassembly. Avoid dropping or applying excessive force to any part of the model, especially delicate sections like masts and sails.
Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean your assembled model, use a soft, dry brush or a can of compressed air to gently remove dust from the surface. For stubborn dirt, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth, then dry immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive water, as these may damage the plastic blocks or cause discoloration.
Troubleshooting
Missing Pieces
If you find any pieces missing during assembly, carefully re-check your workspace, the packaging, and any discarded materials. If pieces are still missing, please refer to the contact information provided in your product packaging or on the official LOZ website for customer support.
Difficulty Connecting Blocks
Ensure blocks are aligned correctly before applying gentle, even pressure. If a block is difficult to connect, check for any obstructions, misaligned studs, or if you are attempting to connect an incorrect piece. Refer to the instruction booklet for the correct block placement.
Model Instability
Verify that all blocks are firmly pressed together. Loose connections can lead to instability. Re-trace your steps to ensure all sections are securely joined, paying particular attention to the base and structural elements.
