Using this model is straightforward. Since it has an analog - DC only control, just connect it to a suitable DC power source and it should start running. When you're done using it, make sure to turn off the power to avoid any potential electrical issues. For maintenance, as it was recently serviced with gearboxes cleaned and the model lubricated, you don't need to do it frequently. But after a long period of use, you can check the gearboxes for any dirt or debris and clean them gently. Also, keep an eye on the wheel wear. If you notice excessive wear, it might be time to replace the wheels. When it comes to the sound feature, if you want to install a speaker, just use the factory - drilled holes in the tender. When storing the model, keep it in the original box with the bubblewrap to protect it from scratches and damage. And always handle it carefully because it's a fragile item.
