6. Maintenance
To keep your JEKCA model in optimal condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Dust the model regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush. For more stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no water seeps into the connections.
- Avoid Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the plastic bricks and their color.
- Storage: If you choose to disassemble the model for storage, keep all bricks and pins organized in a secure container to prevent loss.

- Difficulty Assembling:
- Ensure you are following the detailed instruction manual step-by-step.
- Verify that the correct bricks and pins are being used for each step.
- Confirm that pins are fully inserted and turned 90 degrees with the pin driver to secure the connection.
- Loose Connections: If a section feels loose, re-examine the connections in that area. Ensure all pins are properly inserted and fully turned 90 degrees. Apply firm, even pressure when turning the pin driver.
