SECTION 3: PREPARING TO RUN YOUR X-FACTOR2
Step 1: Final Assembly
❑
Push the antenna down into the molded hole in the top of the transmitter.
❑
Thread the antenna (clockwise) into place and tighten it gently until it stops.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
IMPORTANT
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
Do not force the antenna into place or tighten it too strongly. Doing so
could cause damage to the antenna and/or transmitter.
❑
Remove the plastic battery cover from the bottom of the transmitter.
❑
Install 8 AA Alkaline batteries into the battery tray, double-checking to make sure that
the polarity is correct.
❑
Reinstall the battery cover and set the transmitter aside for now.
❑
Using a # 2 phillips head screwdriver, remove the two screws that hold the battery box
to the chassis, then remove the battery box.
❑
Remove the battery holder from the battery box.
❑
Install 4 AA Alkaline batteries into the battery holder, double-checking to make sure
that the polarity is correct.

IMPORTANT

✦ ✦ ✦
Make sure that the batteries are pushed firmly into place. They should
not be loose. If for any reason the plug from the battery holder (male red plug) is not
plugged into the switch plug (female red plug), plug them together now. The plugs can
fit together only one way.
