Next install the batteries by correctly orienting the
battery housings with the back of the sign housing.
The sign housing has bolt holes at the top of the
housing, electrical connection boxes, and milled ledges
on the bottom of the housing.
The bolt threads of the battery housing should face
towards the back of the sign housing. Take note of the
two milled ledges on the back of the sign housing.

Line up the ridge at the bottom of the battery housing
with the ledge on the back of the sign housing, mak-
ing sure that the ridge completely sets down into the
groove in the ledge.

You should not be able to see the back of the ridge if
seated correctly.

Line the bolt thread on the battery housing up to the bolt hole on the back of the
sign housing. Lightly tap the back of the battery housing to adjoin the electrical
connectors in the middle of the housing. Continue to hold the battery housing to
prevent any drops.

Using the
custom
wrench, gently push the bolt forward until you feel it catch in
the threads in the sign housing. Being careful not to over-tighten, screw down
until the battery housing is secure and no longer needs a hand to hold it up.
