5. Operating Instructions

The ELONGDI Magnetic Building Blocks are designed for intuitive assembly. The magnetic sticks connect to the steel balls, allowing for the creation of various 2D and 3D structures.

5.1 Basic Assembly

• Hold a magnetic stick and bring its end close to a steel ball. The magnet inside the stick will attract the steel ball, forming a connection.
• Multiple sticks can connect to a single steel ball, allowing for complex geometric shapes. A steel ball can typically accommodate connections from several sticks, forming vertices in a structure.
• Experiment with different angles and connections to understand the magnetic forces and structural stability.

5.2 Creative Building

Utilize the included colorful idea booklet for inspiration. The blocks support the construction of:

• Geometric Shapes: Triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, and more complex polyhedra.
• Structures: Houses, towers, bridges, vehicles, and abstract sculptures.
• Educational Models: Demonstrate basic math concepts like counting, color recognition, and geometric modeling.

6. Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the magnetic sticks and steel balls with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Do not immerse in water. Ensure all parts are completely dry before storage.
• Storage: After use, store all components in the provided portable string bag to prevent loss and keep them organized. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the magnetic sticks for any signs of damage or wear. Discontinue use if any part is broken or compromised.

7. Troubleshooting

• Weak Connections: Ensure the magnetic sticks are properly aligned with the steel balls. The magnets are designed to provide a strong hold when connected correctly.
• Missing Pieces: If pieces are missing upon opening, carefully check all packaging materials. For replacement parts or significant discrepancies, contact customer support.
• Difficulty Building: Refer to the colorful idea booklet for guidance. Start with simpler shapes and gradually progress to more complex structures.
