Looking after your model
In order to ensure that your model functions correctly over a long period, your model should
be maintained at regular intervals.
The model need not be opened to do this. It is sufficient, as shown in Fig. 2, to place the model
upside down on a soft surface, being careful not to damage the roof attachments and to clean
the wheel contacts using cotton buds soaked in spirits. Then clean the wheels. Please do not
turn the drive wheels by hand in any circumstances.

After cleaning please use a drop of machine oil to lubricate the bearing points (L) and gear
parts (G1) shown in Fig. 3 + 4. Use commercially available oils and use a fine cannula or
a needle. Caution: do not use cooking oil or hand cream. It is advisable to carry out mainte-
nance work after approximately 30-40 hours of operation.
