Tip:
When assembling your models it's always a good idea to dry fit your parts before glueing. We recommend that you use good quality Super Glue to assemble resin and metal models. |
Assembling the Waffenträger (8.8cm)
|
Step 1. Begin assembly by attaching the tracks to the resin hull. Ensure the orientation keys line up correctly as shown below.
|
Step 2. Attach the gun's travel lock to the front of the hull. |

Crew: To add a crew figure, carefully remove the base with a pair of sprue cutters. You may prefer to paint the vehicle and the figure before attaching it. |

|
|
Step 3. Begin assembly of the gun by adding the gunner to the gun mount. Note the small pin, which fits into the hole to help create a secure bond. |
Step 4. Attach the shield to the gun mount. Again, note the four small locator pins as shown below. |
|
|
|
Step 5. To attach the gun to the gun mount, you must push the gun through the shield. Make sure the gun is the correct way around. |
