UGears Fire Truck with Ladder Mechanical Model Kit

The UGears Fire Truck with Ladder is a self-propelled dynamic model that works like a true fire truck. Part of a new generation of UGears models, it features a realistic mechanical running part and functions similar to a rescue and fire truck, including turning foot, a moving and ascending ladder that transforms into a crane with hook, and driving mechanisms that run, shift, steer, and accelerate. Fuel the model by turning the lever on top of the cab, start the engine with the shifter in idle to see four pistons moving under the folding hood, and open the cabin to find a functioning steering wheel and gas pedal. Shift the transmission into forward or reverse to drive the truck. The model is equipped with a retractable 3-section fire ladder on a rotating platform that, when fully extended, reaches 27.5 in. The ladder system includes controls to lift the ladder, turn the platform right or left, and fix the selected position with a ratchet; all three sections can extend and form a crane with a hook. Number of parts: 537. Level: Hard. Assembly Time: 12–14 hours. Recommended Age: 14+.
