Hello everybody!!!
I have recently purchased a 3781 fire truck and was thinking about how it would be possible to clean it
... After reading Bill's thread of how to
disassemble a fire truck in order to do so, I decided to go on with this project!!!
Many thanks to Bill for sharing his method with us
http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=4371.0!!!
It is very usefull for all of us who want to keep our playmobil collection in a good condition!!!
To begin with, this is one of my latest items I got from ebay...
Ok, its not
that dirty but believe me, there are spots that need a good wash...
In order to go on with this project, I asked my avatar to help me...and he was more than willing to call upon his knights to give some extra helping hands...
So, to follow Bill's instructions: ''To disassemble the whole truck, start by pulling the wheels & axles from the chassis. When you put pressure on the axles the black locks will pop out releasing the entire axles. Do this procedure to all 3 assemblies.''
In order to do so, we had to turn the truck upside down...thank goodness for playmobil knight power!!!
They turned the whole thing upside down with their bare hands
!!!! And they were so happy to do so that they go on top of it and started cheering!!!
Then, they began pushing the wheels out of their place and slowily taking them down...
The victorian playmobil people on the cupboard found this site interesting so they came out of their mansion to have a closer look!!!!
