Troubleshooting

Trailer does not hitch/unhitch smoothly

Ensure the hitching mechanism is clear of debris. Gently manipulate the hitch point on both the tractor and trailer to free it up. Avoid forcing the connection.

Trailer tipping mechanism is stiff

Check the tipping pivot point for any obstructions. Gently try to move the trailer bed up and down to loosen it. If necessary, a tiny drop of lubricant *not* included in the product could be applied to the pivot, but use with extreme caution to avoid staining.

Spreader valve is difficult to adjust

Gently turn the adjustable valve. If it feels stuck, check for any small pieces of debris or misalignment. Do not apply excessive force.

Paint chipping on die-cast parts

This is common with die-cast models during rigorous play. Ensure the toy is handled with reasonable care. Minor chips can be touched up with appropriate model paint if desired, but this is not essential for playability.
