This detailed and realistic fire truck is a mechanical 3D puzzle for self-assembly and has a variety of functions. The model has a wind-up rubber band mechanism which can be wound up with a key and so the fire truck can drive. The fire ladder can be rotated, and can be extended and retracted up to 70 cm. The front doors can be opened and the truck stabilizers can be extended.

Number of parts: 439
Model size: 37.8 x 9.8 x 12.2 cm

Contents: Environmentally friendly birch plywood, rubber bands, wax, toothpicks and picture-by-picture assembly instructions.
Material: wood, rubber, wax
Tip:
The model can also be painted with wood paints (not included). It is important, however, that the joints are not stuck together with dried paint.
Please note:
The assembly requires a bit of handy skill, as the sometimes filigree components have to be joined together with controlled force from time to time. If the procedure is too careless or rough, individual parts can be irreparably damaged. Here, as with other model building parts, the following applies: «Take a close look at the assembly instructions, less force, more patience and a precise approach»
Notes on the manufacturer:
EWA - Eco Wood Art designs unusual and creative construction kits with loving attention to detail and produces them itself. The environmentally friendly mechanical models, decorative puzzles and toys made from renewable birch wood are made of plywood panels. The respective panels are created using the laser cut process and some are decorated. The individual parts can be easily separated from the plywood panels and put together without the use of adhesives. The mechanical functions are realized with rubber bands (e.g. winding motors) or with gear wheels and bring them to life with movements. If you want, you can even paint the objects with wood paint and make them even more individual.
Warnings:
Not suitable for children under 3 years as small parts can be swallowed.
