The tilt stand is easily raised by pulling the stand until it locks into place. The stand can also be reversed for use as a hanger to suspend the 830-KP.

The six “AA” batteries are easily removed and replaced (alkaline supplied and recommended). Replace the battery compartment cover by inserting the tabs and tightening the screw.
