Your set inventory lists this set containing 2 trans-red 1x1 tiles, but the instructions show that they are 1x1 plates (you can see the stud).

The transparent version of the 1 x 1 tile was first released in Trans-Red in
1984, and this was one of the sets from that year.

The instructions were likely drawn up before the part in that color / mold was
released, and then adjusted after the fact.

The hinges holding the removable sled in place may not work without the tiles
either. You might want to build the model to make sure.

S it can be seeen in the photos, 1x1 tiles work, 1x1 plates don't.

Based on the alternate builds on the back of the box, the trans-red 1x1 tiles
should be correct:

P.S.
There is a photo of the main model from the back but it is too small.

This is likely just a mistake in the instructions as the main model cannot be
built and utilized correctly with 1 x 1 plates instead of 1 x 1 tiles. In fact,
the studs on those parts are just shown on the callout in the instructions, but
magically disappear everywhere else.

I will add a note to inventory about the instructions, but the inventory will
remain as it is.

Cheers,
Randy
