The FALLER Ferris Wheel LED Lighting Set (Art. Nr. 180728) is an accessory kit designed to illuminate a model Ferris wheel, enhancing its realism and visual appeal. This set is intended to be used in conjunction with a separate Ferris wheel model (Art. Nr. 140312, not included) and a motor (Art. Nr. 180629, not included) to create a dynamic and illuminated display.

Function Description:

The primary function of this kit is to provide LED lighting for the gondolas of a model Ferris wheel. It includes miniature LED components, wiring, and structural elements to integrate the lighting system seamlessly into the Ferris wheel model. The LEDs are designed to be powered by a 5V DC power source, while the motor for the Ferris wheel itself requires a 12-16V AC power source. The kit emphasizes the importance of proper assembly and wiring to ensure correct functionality and a visually appealing, evenly lit display.

Important Technical Specifications:

Product Number: Art. Nr. 180728
Compatibility: Designed for use with FALLER Ferris Wheel Art. Nr. 140312 (not included) and Motor Art. Nr. 180629 (not included).
LED Power Requirement: 5V DC for the gondola LEDs.
Motor Power Requirement (for separate motor): 12-16V AC.
Components: The kit includes various bags of parts (Tüte/sachet/bag/zakje 1, 2, 3, 4), each containing specific elements for different stages of assembly. These include structural parts for the wheel, wiring, LED components, and decorative elements.
LED Colors: The gondola LEDs are available in various colors, including yellow/orange, green, and red/blue, allowing for alternating color patterns as indicated in the assembly instructions.
Dimensions (approximate): The main wheel structure, once assembled, has an approximate diameter of 250 mm.

Usage Features:

The kit is designed for model enthusiasts and requires careful assembly. Key usage features include:

Detailed Assembly Instructions: The manual provides step-by-step visual instructions with accompanying text in German, English, French, and Dutch. Each step is clearly numbered and illustrates the parts required and the assembly process.
Component Identification: Parts are identified by their bag number (e.g., Tüte 1, Tüte 2) and specific part numbers (e.g., 4/2, 3/1).
Mounting Aids: The kit includes a "Montagehilfe" (mounting aid) tool (part 9/14) to assist in pressing components into place. The packaging box itself is also suggested to be cut out and used as an assembly aid for certain steps.
Wiring Integration: Specific instructions are provided for stretching and connecting the wires, including soldering the cables for the LED connections. The positive and negative terminals for the LEDs are clearly marked (rot (+) / red, blau (-) / blue).
Structural Integrity: Emphasis is placed on ensuring the wheel is perfectly parallel and not tilted, which is crucial for smooth operation and proper lighting display.
Adhesive Recommendations: The instructions specify when to use instant modelling cement ("Sekundenkleber fixieren!") and when not to glue certain parts ("nicht kleben / do not glue").
Decorative Elements: The kit includes various decorative parts (Deco 1 through Deco 13) to enhance the aesthetic of the Ferris wheel and its base structure, such as the "RIESENRAD" sign.
Alternating Gondola Colors: The instructions advise paying attention to alternating colors for the gondolas, suggesting a visually dynamic lighting pattern.

Maintenance Features:

While the manual primarily focuses on assembly, some aspects touch upon maintenance or best practices for longevity:

Careful Handling: Instructions like "Vorsichtig heraustrennen!" (Rip out cautiously!) for removing parts from sprues suggest careful handling to prevent damage during assembly, which contributes to the model's overall durability.
Proper Wiring: Correct soldering and connection of wires are critical for the long-term functionality of the LED lighting system.
Stable Installation: Ensuring the Ferris wheel is "unbedingt parallel" (absolutely parallel) and not tilted prevents undue stress on the motor and wheel structure, potentially extending its lifespan.
Power Supply: Adhering to the specified voltage requirements (5V DC for LEDs, 12-16V AC for the motor) is essential to prevent damage to the electronic components.
Cleaning: Although not explicitly stated, general model maintenance practices like gentle dusting would apply to keep the illuminated Ferris wheel looking its best.

Additional Recommendations (not included in the kit):

The manual recommends several FALLER products for assembly, which are not included in the kit:

FALLER SUPER-EXPERT / EXPERT / LASERCUT adhesives: Art. Nr. 170490, 170492, 170494. These are likely specialized glues for model building.
SPEZIAL-SEITENSCHNEIDER (Special Side Cutters): Art. Nr. 170688. Essential for cleanly removing parts from sprues.
FALLER-BASTELMESSER (FALLER Craft Knife): Art. Nr. 170687. Useful for precise cutting and trimming.

Overall, the FALLER Ferris Wheel LED Lighting Set is a comprehensive kit designed to add a vibrant, illuminated dimension to a model Ferris wheel, requiring careful and precise assembly to achieve the desired effect.
