I’ve had this set for 3 days now, and on my first build lifting the blade was
very erratic, with a lot of stopping and starting. I looked at the
fix offered on the Lego site, but that wasn’t an issue. I’ve just rebuilt it
with a fix of my own, and it works flawlessly.
On page 21 of instruction book 1, as part of step 18 you’re instructed to make
the following:
I discovered the either raised text or the radial pattern on the 24-tooth clutch

clutch gear and the bush around as so:
Note that you’ll need to put a bush on before the 8-tooth gear in the same step

raid your collection.
Did anyone else with this set notice a decrease in parts quality? Some of the
axle rounded ends are slightly misaligned so it can take a bit of force to get
bushes and other parts on the axles at first.

| I also noticed that clutch gear was rubbing on the beam, but I found that the radial pattern wasn't as bad as the text side. I just pushed it a tiny bit away from the beam and it seems to be working fine. The only mod I've made so far was switching (...) (18 years ago, 29-Oct-07, to lugnet.technic)
