(See fig 2) 3) Load batteries into the slots paying close attention to the polarity. (See fig 2) 4) Replace the battery cover and turn the power “ON” to see if the indicating arrow will move up. If the batteries are fresh, the indicating arrow will move to the far right side but if the arrow is in the low power or lower part of the yellow zone, you had better replace the batteries or recharge your NiCad batteries.
