When you purchase a product from Letbricks, we want to ensure you can start building right away—whether your instruction manual is printed or in digital format. This quick guide will help you understand which type of manual you’ll receive, how to access it, and how to troubleshoot common issues.
Here’s a general guideline:
- Mass-produced or official co-branded sets: These usually come with a printed instruction manual included in the box.
- Most MOC (My Own Creation) sets: These are provided with a PDF manual, accessible via a QR code card inside the package.
If you’re ever unsure, always check the product page before placing your order.

Once the page opens, simply tap the “Download” button to save the PDF file to your device.
Step 3: Open and view the manual

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Access & Download
Q1: The link says "Unable to preview" in Google Drive. What should I do?
A: This usually happens with large files. Simply click the “Download” button and save the PDF to your device. It will open normally once downloaded.
Q2: The QR code is expired or not working.
A: Please contact our customer support team at service@letbricks.com with your order number. We'll send you a new download link within 24 hours.
Q3: I can’t scan the QR code. Is there another way to get the manual?
A: Yes. Just email our support team, and we’ll send you a direct Google Drive link. You can open it on any browser without scanning.
Q4: Can I access the PDF manual on multiple devices?
A: Absolutely. Once downloaded, the PDF can be viewed on any phone, tablet, or computer you choose.
Paper vs. PDF Manuals
Q5: Will I receive a printed instruction manual?
A: Only certain mass-produced or co-branded sets include printed manuals. Most MOC sets come with digital PDF manuals. Please refer to the product detail page for the exact manual format.
Q6: Why do you use PDF manuals instead of printed ones for all sets?
A: To reduce paper waste and keep shipping costs down. PDF manuals are easier to distribute globally, can be zoomed in for detail, and work across multiple devices.
Q7: I prefer printed instructions, but my set only includes a PDF. Can you provide a paper manual?
A: We generally don’t offer printed manuals for digital-only sets. However, if you need one, please contact our support team with the product name. We’ll check whether it’s possible to print a copy for you. If available, extra printing and international shipping fees will apply. Please note that due to the weight of printed manuals, shipping may be expensive, so we typically recommend using the PDF version if possible.
Printing & Troubleshooting
Q8: Can I print the PDF manual myself?
A: Yes. Once downloaded, you’re free to print the file at home or at a local print shop. For best results, we recommend high-resolution printing.
Q9: What if I lose or damage the instruction manual card in the package?
A: No worries. Just email our customer service team with your order number, and we’ll reissue the digital manual link.
Q10: What if the PDF manual has missing pages or shows the wrong version?
A: Let us know right away. We’ll verify and send the correct version to your email as soon as possible.
Q11: Is the PDF manual searchable or zoomable?
A: Yes. Most of our PDFs support text search and zoom, making it easier to follow small or complex steps while building.
