Before Starting Assembly
Before beginning the assembly of your model, remove
each part from its bag for inspection. Closely inspect
the fuselage, wing panels, rudder and stabilizer for
damage. If you find any damaged or missing parts,
contact the place of purchase.
If you find any wrinkles in the covering, use a heat gun
(HAN100) and covering glove (HAN150) or covering
iron (HAN101) with a sealing iron sock (HAN141) to
remove them. Use caution while working around seams
or areas where the colors overlap to prevent pulling
the seams.
