1. Note the corrected screw types circled in red in the first four diagrams below. Print the corrected pages or make notations in your paper manual. Failure to use the proper screws can cause breakage of crucial parts.
2. Fragile parts! Note the fragile green circled parts in the diagrams below: Group 5 step 75, Group 1 step 15, Group 1 step 21. These parts are easily broken and hard to replace. Please follow the instructions in the red boxes, especially with regards to the delayed assembly order for parts 5.027LT and 5.027LM in Group 5, step 75.
3. There are many other black braided hoses with the same construction as those noted in Group 1 step 21 below and they all should be treated with the same care - do not flex them more than necessary, and do not force the end fittings into place.
Attention! The assembly manual scans and notes below are required reading before you start your kit.
Important! Do not install the parts circled in green below until the very end of model assembly, they are fragile and easily broken during handling.
The green circled parts below are easily broken if the screws are overtightened, assemble with care!
CA glue (Superglue) can weaken plastic parts that are under stress. Engine part 2.048 (step 34) shown below is especially vulnerable because of the fragile fittings that accept the metal fuel lines. Try bending the ends of the fuel lines to enable them to seat properly in the plastic part, or if you glue is necessary use rubber cement or contact cement instead of CA glue.
