The painted and plastic parts used in this kit are
fuel proof. However, they are not tolerant of many
harsh chemicals including the following: paint thinner,
C/A glue accelerator, C/A glue debonder and acetone.
Do not let these chemicals come in contact with the
colors on the covering and the plastic parts.
Please trial fit all the parts. Make sure you have the
correct parts and that they fit and are aligned properly
before gluing! This will assure proper assembly. The
TUCANO 60CC SCALE 1:4 ¼ ARF is hand made
from natural materials, every plane is unique and
minor adjustments may have to be made. However,
you should find the fit superior and assembly simple.
NOTE:
To avoid scratching your new airplane, do not
unwrap the pieces until they are needed for assembly.
Cover your workbench with an old towel or brown
paper, both to protect the aircraft and to protect the
table. Keep a couple of jars or bowls handy to hold the
small parts after you open the bag.
PREPARATIONS
Use a covering iron with a covering sock on
high heat to tighten the covering if necessary.
Apply pressure over sheeted areas to
thoroughly bond the covering to the wood.
