5. Operating (Using the Tools)

The included tools are fundamental for precision and clean assembly:

• Sprue Cutter: Position the flat side of the cutter against the part to achieve a flush cut. Squeeze handles firmly but gently to avoid stress marks on the plastic.
• Hobby Knife: Always use a sharp blade. Make multiple light passes rather than one deep cut. When trimming, support the part firmly and cut on a protective surface.
• File: Use a light touch. For flat surfaces, use a flat file. For curved or intricate areas, the included file can be adapted. Always clean filings from the part and file.
• Tweezers: Grip small parts securely but without excessive force to prevent damage. Useful for applying decals or placing tiny components.

6. Fikojakojana

Proper care of your tools will ensure their longevity and performance:

• fitahirizana: Store tools in a dry place to prevent rust. Keep sharp tools in their protective covers or a tool organizer to prevent accidental injury and dulling.
• Fanoloana lelafo: Replace hobby knife blades regularly when they become dull. A dull blade is more dangerous than a sharp one as it requires more force and can slip.
