Step 7: Battery Shelf Installation

Flip the Base over, place the two Sealed Lead Acid batteries on the bottom of the Base, and connect the

Red and Black wires to the corresponding colored terminals, as shown in Figure 7a.

Figure 7a

assemblies. This should be a nice, tight fit. Be careful to not short the terminals of the batteries against

the frames of the motor assemblies. See Figure 7b.
