5. Maintenance
- Dusting: Regularly dust your assembled model with a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush to prevent dust buildup in intricate areas.
- Avoid Moisture: Keep the wooden models away from high humidity, direct water, or liquids, as this can cause the wood to warp or swell.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the wood to fade or become brittle. Display your model in a shaded area.
- Handle with Care: When moving or handling the model, support it from the base to prevent stress on delicate parts.
- LK802 Mechanism: For the LK802, ensure the mechanical gears remain clean and free of dust or debris to maintain smooth operation. Do not apply lubricants unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer.
6. Troubleshooting
- Parts Not Fitting: If a piece does not fit easily, do not force it. Check the instruction manual to ensure you have the correct part and orientation. Gently sand the edges if necessary.
- Missing or Damaged Parts: If you discover any missing or damaged parts upon opening the kit, please contact ROBOTIME customer support immediately.
- LK802 Oars Not Moving:
- Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the model and a working power source.
- Check for any obstructions in the gear mechanism or along the path of the connecting rods and oars.
- Verify that all gears are correctly assembled and aligned according to the instruction booklet.
