Dear customer,
Congratulations on your choice of the DÜSSELDORF fire-
fighting boat to 1 : 25 scale from the robbe Modellsport sta-
ble; which is a scale model in almost-ready-to-run form. Many
thanks for placing your trust in us
Introduction to the building instructions
The building instructions are divided into sub-assemblies,
each of which is sub-divided into individual stages arranged in
a logical sequence.
Each stage also includes supplementary hints and tips which
apply to the procedures currently in hand.
Before you start construction, please read right through the
instructions, referring constantly to the illustrations, so that you
have a clear idea how the model goes together.
In basic terms the part numbers in the drawings and instruc-
tions reflect the recommended sequence of assembly.
Unless indicated otherwise, all measurements are stated in
millimetres.
All stated directions are as seen from the rear of the mo-
del looking forward.

The full-size:
The Düsseldorf fire-fighting boat was developed and built by
Rheinwerft GmbH & Co., based in Mainz-Mombach, for use
in the Ruhr region of Germany. Equipped to cope with cata-
strophic events - whether it is a ship on fire, escaped oil or a
harbour system in danger of explosion - the vessel's fire mo-
nitors can hurl water or foam a distance of up to 95 m, and a
height of 45 m, operating at a pressure of 10.5 bar. The two
twelve-cylinder V-engines generate a total power of 930 kW
(1260 BHP), endowing the vessel with a top speed of around
37 km/hr.
The model:
The model is pre-fabricated to such an extent that the only re-
maining work is to install a few fittings and the receiving system
components.
The fittings are to be installed by the customer. They are sup-
plied as individual items, ready to fit. See the following instruc-
tions.
It is possible to complete the Düsseldorf in just a few hours,
even if you have no prior modelling experience. The model
is finished in a multi-colour paint scheme applied to a superb
standard. The glazing panels consist of opaque black plastic,
and are fitted individually together with the window frames.

RC system installation:
At the builder's discretion, it is possible to install optional con-
trol servos and a pump for the fire monitors.
The ideal location for your selected receiving system compon-
ents may vary widely according to the number of units and the
boat's working systems.
The boat's Centre of Gravity can be adjusted by re-positio-
ning the drive battery. In general terms the radio system
components should be positioned in such a way that the
boat floats level (CWL = waterline).
