BATTERY REPLACEMENT 

 
1.

 

Familiarise  yourself  with  all  warnings  given  at  the  start  of  Section  3  RULES  FOR  SAFE 
OPERATION.
 

 
2.

 

Using  a  10mm  AF  Allen  key  loosen  the  bleed  screw  3  full  turns  to  release  any  internal 
pressure and to turn the transmitter off. There is no need to fully remove the bleed screw. 
If you do so it may be lost. 

 
3.

 

Using  a  2.5mm  AF  Allen  key  fully  unscrew  the  M5  locking  grub  screw  on  the  BATTERY 
ENDCAP. The grub screw may be screwed back in 3 turns to prevent it getting lost. 

 
4.

 

Using the supplied ENDCAP REMOVAL TOOL, fully remove the BATTERY ENDCAP. 

 
5.

 

Remove  all  DURACELL  INDUSTRIAL  ID1300  Alkaline  D  cells  and  battery  discs.  Visually 
inspect the batteries, contact Online Electronics Ltd immediately if there are any signs of 
damage or electrolyte leakage. Dispose of the old batteries in a responsible way. Place the 
battery discs safely to the side so they don’t get lost. 

 
6.

 

Observing  the  battery  polarity  shown  in  the  figure  below,  insert  5x  new  DURACELL 
INDUSTRIAL ID1300 Alkaline D cells into the battery compartment POSITIVE END first with 
a  3015X-029  ALK  BATTERY  DISC  between  neighbouring  cells.  A  total  of  4x  battery  discs 
will be required. 

 

 

 
7.

 

Once all batteries are installed ensure that it is the FLAT, NEGATIVE END of the batteries 
which you see when looking into the open end of the transmitter. 

 
8.

 

Examine  the  O-ring  seals  for  any  signs  of  contamination  or  damage,  replace  and/or  re-
grease if necessary. 

 
9.

 

Replace the BATTERY ENDCAP using the supplied ENDCAP REMOVAL  TOOL. Do not use a 
vice or spanner, it only needs to be hand tight. Damage may occur if over tightened. 

 
10.

 

Tighten  the  M5  grub  screw  (until  the  grub  screw  engages  with  the  housing  to  lock  the 
BATTERY  ENDCAP).  Note  that  very  little  torque  is  required.  Damage  may  occur  if  over 
tightened. 

 
11.

 

Fully  tighten  the  bleed  screw  to  turn  on  the  transmitter.  Using  an  EM  receiver,  confirm 
transmitter function and correct transmission rate. 

 
12.

 

If  the  transmitter  is  not  to  be  used  immediately  after  battery  replacement,  loosen  the 
bleed screw 3 full turns to switch the transmitter off and use some tape to hold the bleed 
screw in this position to prevent it being lost or the transmitter being accidentally turned 
back on.
