FILE THE CHASSIS
Use your file to bevel the slots on the top of the chassis
so the edges won't cut through the battery cell wrap.
WARNING!
Graphite dust can be harmful to your
health. File in a well ventilated area. Then wash the
chassis with running water and dry with paper
towels. Wash your hands afterward with cold water
and soap. Deposit graphite filings in trash.
TAPE THE CHASSIS
Insulate the battery slots by wrapping the slots with
electrical tape.
