Yeah probably a dumb question but I'm askin anyway.I bought another M1008 and the batteries wont hold charge so I am havin to either swap batteries off other vehicles or jump it,and I'm tired of swappin batteries.

I have a PSD two battries but it's 12 volt,so how do I need to put the cables on to jump the 24 volt M-1008???I have two sets of cables,do I put a set on each battery in 12 volt???

I know the easy answer is buy new batteries,but I hate to put $200 in batteries on a truck I'm sellin.
 
you should be able to hook to the first battery, the one next to the core support. That is the 12v battery. The other is 24v. (you can double check across the battery with a multimeter just to make sure) I would guess that if you charge the first it would transfer to the other as well. Pretty sure that is what I did to mine when I was trying to get it running.
