AndyB Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I think that the UH Quadtrac is one of their best, although you do have to pay heavily for one! I bought a 620 recently and when it came through the post it was rattling! So after unpacking it I found that a complete track set had sheared off on one side........

AndyB Posted April 10, 2018 Author Share Posted April 10, 2018 Further investigations (after removing 3 very difficult screws) found where the damage had occurred....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB Posted April 10, 2018 Author Share Posted April 10, 2018 Thankfully (bless UH) one screw removes all of the rear axle casting, but it does show that there is a weak point in the casting.......this is the undamaged side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted April 10, 2018 Author Share Posted April 10, 2018 So to the super glue then! It was an easy fix, but a precautionary note to owners - don't be too heavy handed or screw them onto the plinth too tight would be my advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgriFarmModels Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 for the cost of the model I d have returned it. I got the 20th year anniversary edition and luckily it was fault free. one this I believe UH need to improve on is the display base... screwing the models to that base is a bit OTT over the years however, the most important thing in any collection is glue .. people handling models, next thing they'd knock a mirror off or whatever ..

AndyB Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 You need a well fitting small philips head screw driver and apply steady force otherwise they will easily disintegrate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
