LEGO 60284 City Roadwork Truck
LEGO Audio & Braille Building Instructions for the LEGO City set "City Roadwork Truck".
Help the LEGO City worker keep the roads in tip-top condition. Drive the awesome front-end loader into position and set out the traffic cones and roadworks sign. Yikes! A rat! Help move the cheeky rodent to safety, then grab the shovel and wheelbarrow and get to work. Use the truck’s bucket to transport and tip the heavy rubble – when you’re done, load up your tools and drive to the next job!
On the right side of the box cover, the black and yellow front-end loader can be seen in action. The worker is sitting in the driver's cab. He is currently busy filling a hole in the road with rubble. All this ruckus made a rat jump out of the hole, it's quickly fleeing to the left. The hole is secured with traffic cones at the front and back, and in the bottom right corner, the green wheelbarrow and the dark grey shovel are ready for more hands-on work. At the back of the scene, a triangular roadworks sign is warning traffic participants of the ongoing works.
Open the box. This can be tricky; ask someone to help you!
The box contains a booklet with visual building instructions, two unnumbered plastic bags and two loose parts: the driver's cab and the bottom of the vehicle.
Carefully open both plastic bags, but before you start building, ask a sighted person to help you sort the pieces by color. This makes finding the correct pieces even easier!
First, we will build the worker Minifigure.
Collect the following 3 pieces:
1 medium blue and bright yellow upper part of the body,
1 bright yellow head,
and 1 bright blue pair of legs.
Assemble the Minifigure: put the upper part of the body on the legs, and then put the head on top.
