UGears Rail Manipulator 3D puzzle 356 pc(s)

Following Tram Line, The Rail Manipulator continues the line of exciting projects of Ugears new Mechanical Town series. Manipulator was designed to become purely utilitarian, which by no means makes it less entertaining than the other sets in a succession of Mechanical Town models. Keeping up with legacy of Ugears assembly kits, Manipulator was designed to ensure fun continues long after the assembly part is complete: It comes with two sections of rails, the shed under construction, two shipping crates with doors, a crane, freight carriage, and five characters

HOW UGEARS RAIL MANIPULATOR WORKS
The claw itself sits on a platform that can be rotated either manually or by a valve. The operator’s cabin equipped with protective lid and adjustable light os located in the front of The Manipulator. It controls manipulator’s three basic working modes: initial position (driving mode) – the claw’s rotation platform locked, the model moves along the track; 90-degree turn (free mode) – the rotation platform is unlocked; 180-degree turn (loading mode) – the wheels of the models are locked along with the gear in the front axle that connects to the ledge on the rails. On the back of Manipulator is the lever that controls lifting, lowering, and holding of four foot supports providing extra-steadiness while operating the claw. With its claw, the Ugears Manipulator can load and move the freight crates in the Carriage with an extraordinary – up to .39in – preciseness. Just like its prototypes, the Manipulator will teach you about the operational and constructional peculiarities of the real-life machines, such as cranes, excavators, robotic arms, etc; their mechanics and functionality.
