Troubleshooting
Wood pieces have rough edges
While designed with safety in mind, very minor rough spots can occur with natural wood. Lightly sand any specific rough spots with fine-grit sandpaper. If significant, contact customer support.
Tools do not fit screws properly
Ensure the correct tool is being used for the corresponding screw. Check that the screw is aligned correctly with the tool head. The fit is designed to be snug for developing motor skills, not for perfect mechanical function.
Paint chipping on wooden pieces
Minor chipping can happen with extensive use. For cosmetic touch-ups, consider using non-toxic, child-safe paint. For significant damage, contact the manufacturer.
Box lid is difficult to close
Ensure all contents are placed neatly inside the toolbox. Sometimes, the contents may shift, preventing the lid from closing smoothly. Rearrange items to allow for a proper closure.
