6. Maintenance
Proper care will help preserve your assembled model:
- Cleaning: To remove dust, gently wipe the assembled model with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water, cleaning solutions, or abrasive materials, as these may damage the blocks or cause discoloration.
- Storage: Store the completed model in a stable, dust-free environment away from direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause the plastic blocks to fade or become brittle.
- Disassembly: If you choose to disassemble the model, carefully separate the blocks to avoid breakage. Store the blocks in a container to prevent loss.
7. Troubleshooting
- Missing Pieces: If you discover any missing pieces in your set, please contact the seller directly. Provide clear information about which specific pieces are missing, and the seller will arrange for replacements to be shipped to you.
- Difficulty with Instructions: If the instruction diagrams are hard to follow due to their small size, try taking a picture of the relevant page with a tablet or smartphone and zooming in to see the details more clearly.
- Blocks Not Fitting: Ensure you are using the correct blocks for each step. Micro blocks require precise alignment. If a block does not fit easily, do not force it, as this may cause damage. Double-check the instructions.
