5. Batteries
1. Lean the side supports of the battery housings on the rails.
2. Push the battery cases forwards on the rails until they lock in place. Put the battery case with the connectors for
the electronics in first. Position it first so that the connecting lead for the electronics is on your right. This will make
it much easier to connect the batteries.

To remove the batteries, reverse the procedure. Disconnect the battery from the control and then disconnect the
batteries from each other. Push the battery cases upwards slightly until they disengage, and then pull them out
along the rails.
