Noob question. To install the batteries, is it correct I separate the arms from the body? And is it me or there is no neck articulation to look above for NU?

I have seem youtuber review the battery compartment by removing the arm from the body to get a straight shot at the battery under the "arm pit" (?) so I feel it should be safe to do so. |

I only had enough time to set it up before getting to work but when I looked at the instructions I was confused too. I know I read that you can rotate the arms up to flip the switch but it didn't state if that works for taking off the panel as well? I know the screw is accessible without removing anything but the panel itself still may be blocked off. Did you end up doing it yet? |

Update, this is the video. 15:18 is the starting point, however I am not sure if this answers your question. I will keep looking |

I will keep looking Alright so I didn't see this response before getting home and jumping right into getting the batteries installed but I can confirm that the arms don't need to be removed at all to access the cover panel or batteries and switch compartments. It's solely just to give you more space to work with. The arms do slide right out though just like Metal Builds. --------------------- Lit up:  |

I just found this out without need to remove the arms. |
