1.4.2 Optional Lithium-Ion Battery
The Magna-Mike 8600 is normally used as a bench-top instrument and continuously
powered from the charger/adaptor supplied with the instrument. The lithium-ion (Li-
ion) battery is an optional method for powering the Magna-Mike 8600. When
properly maintained, and when the instrument is operated under typical inspection

continuous operation.
To install or replace the lithium-ion battery

2. At the back of the instrument, loosen the two thumb screws securing the battery
compartment cover (see Figure 1-10 on page 28).
3. Remove the battery compartment cover (see Figure 1-10 on page 28).
4. Remove the battery and/or install the battery in the battery compartment.
5. Ensure that the gasket of the battery compartment cover is clean and in good
condition.
