3. Assembly Instructions

The ROBOTIME Apatosaurus is a DIY assembly kit designed to engage both hands and mind. Follow the numbered steps in the included instruction booklet carefully.

  1. Preparation: Unpack all components and lay them out on a clean, flat surface. Identify the plywood sheets and the separate electronic parts.
  2. Part Identification: Each wooden piece is numbered. Refer to the instruction booklet to identify the correct parts for each step. Gently push out the pieces from the plywood sheets. Avoid forcing them to prevent damage.
  3. Initial Assembly: Begin by assembling the core body structure using the interlocking wooden pieces as guided by the manual. Pay close attention to the orientation of each piece.
  4. Electronic Integration: As instructed, integrate the motor, sensor, and other electronic components into the wooden structure. Ensure all wires are connected correctly and securely. Incorrect wiring may prevent the model from functioning.
  5. Leg and Tail Assembly: Attach the legs and tail sections, ensuring that the joints allow for proper movement. The mechanical parts should move freely without excessive friction.
  6. Head and Neck Assembly: Assemble the head and neck, connecting them to the main body.
  7. Final Checks: Once all parts are assembled, double-check all connections and ensure no pieces are loose. Insert the required batteries (not included) into the designated compartment.

Tip: Some parts may require gentle sanding or a small amount of glue for a more secure fit, though typically not necessary if assembled correctly. Always refer to the specific instructions provided in your kit.

4. Operating Instructions

Your ROBOTIME Apatosaurus model is designed with voice control functionality.

  1. Power On: Ensure batteries are correctly installed. Locate the power switch (if present, usually near the battery compartment) and turn the model ON.
  2. Voice Activation: The Apatosaurus responds to sound. A clap of hands or a clear, distinct sound will activate its movements and sounds.
  3. Functionality: Upon activation, the dinosaur will walk, roar, and may exhibit biting motions, simulating a real Apatosaurus.
  4. Optimal Environment: For best performance, operate the model in a relatively quiet environment to ensure clear detection of voice commands.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and proper functioning of your ROBOTIME Apatosaurus model, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the wooden surfaces with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as they can damage the wood and electronic components.
  • Storage: Store the model in a dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent warping or damage to the wood and electronics.
  • Battery Care: Remove batteries if the model will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage and damage to the electronic circuit.
  • Handling: Handle the assembled model with care, especially delicate parts like the neck and tail, to avoid breakage.
