the CW reading. When the CW and PEAK readings are

the same, calibration is complete.

9. Replace the back cover, using the four 8-32 Phillips flat

head screws.

Maintenance

Maintenance of the Model 43P in general will be the same as for the Model

43 except for battery replacement.
If the unit does not function properly in peak mode, or calibration cannot be

achieved, the batteries may be low. Replace the batteries with new ones,

preferably alkaline or lithium type. The batteries fit very tightly in their

retaining clips and may have to be pried out one at a time (refer to figure

15).
