Congratulations on your new toy crane machine! Setting it up properly will ensure hours of fun for your family. First, carefully unbox all components and identify the main parts: the base, crane arm, control panel, and prize compartment. Choose a stable, level surface away from direct sunlight or moisture. Begin by assembling the base according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically involving simple screw connections. Attach the crane mechanism securely, making sure the claw moves freely. Connect any power cables or battery compartments. For battery-operated models, we recommend using fresh alkaline batteries for optimal performance. Test the controls to ensure smooth operation before loading prizes. Start with lightweight, plush toys or small trinkets that won't jam the mechanism. Adjust the claw tension if your model allows it - a tighter grip works better for heavier items. Always supervise young children during operation and regularly check for loose parts. With proper setup, your home arcade experience will provide endless entertainment!
