SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALL BATTERY

The OS730K’s battery compartment (Fig. 1, Callout 4) is below the measurement trigger and

accessible from the front of the grip. Before installing the “9V” battery included in the

package, remove the plastic wrap covering its terminals.

To install the battery:

1. Open the battery compartment by placing your thumb and forefinger in the indentations

on the sides of the grip and pulling the top of the hinged compartment forward.

2. Plug the “9V” battery into the wired socket inside the compartment. The terminals of the

battery and the socket mate in only one way, with the smaller male terminal plugging into

the larger female terminal.

3. Close the battery compartment cover by pushing its top against the grip until the cover

snaps shut.
