When handling the model, be gentle as it's a fragile item. Keep it away from sharp objects and avoid dropping it. To maintain the model, clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the gearbox noise becomes too loud over time, you can consider lubricating it carefully. For shipping, we've packed it bulletproof, but once you receive it, store it in a cool, dry place.
