How to use

Place the model on a stable surface before operating moving parts. Adjust the legs and chassis to simulate walking positions or to stabilize the model on an uneven display base.

Handle moving joints gently to avoid excessive force; the model is designed for occasional manipulation in display and play contexts rather than heavy-duty handling.

Usage recommendations

Keep the model away from small children under the manufacturer’s recommended age due to small parts. For cleaning, use a soft brush or dry cloth to remove dust; avoid solvents or water on painted metal surfaces. When storing, place the model in a padded box or on a shelf to protect movable parts and paint finish.
