Assembly Instructions

Understanding the Interlocking System

The JEKCA building system ensures a sturdy model through the use of connecting pins. Each brick is secured by inserting a pin through aligned holes in adjacent bricks and then rotating the pin to lock them in place.

General Assembly Steps:

1. Preparation: Unpack all components and organize your workspace. Refer to the detailed manual for the specific sequence of brick placement.
2. Connecting Bricks: As indicated in the manual, place bricks together. Ensure the holes for the pins are aligned.
3. Inserting Pins: Insert the provided connecting pins through the aligned holes.
4. Locking Pins: Use the pin driver tool to rotate each pin 90 degrees. This action expands the pin within the bricks, creating a strong, stable connection.
5. Progressive Building: Continue this process layer by layer, following the manual's diagrams, until the model is complete.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: To clean your assembled model, gently wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. For stubborn dust, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the model in a stable location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent material degradation or discoloration.
• Disassembly: If disassembly is required, carefully rotate the pins back 90 degrees using the pin driver tool and gently separate the bricks. Avoid forcing connections.

Troubleshooting

• Bricks Not Fitting: Ensure you are using the correct bricks as indicated in the instruction manual. Check for any debris in the connection points.
• Pins Not Inserting/Turning: Verify that the holes in the bricks are perfectly aligned. Ensure the pin driver tool is properly engaged with the pin. Do not force the pin; gentle pressure and correct alignment are key.
• Model Instability: Double-check all pin connections to ensure they are fully rotated 90 degrees and locked. Review previous steps in the manual to confirm correct brick placement.
