The 3D printing process requires a supporting frame
during printing, see below left. The printed part is cut from the
frame using flush cutters and this sometimes leaves small
bumps on the part. Use a knife with a sharp new blade to cut
away the bumps. When trimming bumps off the wheels you
should place the wheel on a flat surface as shown below on
the right. Putting too much stress on the wheel can cause the
axle to break. For bumps on the cab body, sanding is
recommended.
After cleaning up the bumps, paint the parts and apply
the decals as shown on the painting guide on page 2.
When everything is dry, proceed to final assembly.
Important
-
The decals must be cut apart (as
shown below)
Cut out
the “Department of Sanitation” decals just inside the

as possible. Note there are multiple cab numbers in case
you have more than one truck of the same type.
