You probably will need to replace the NiCds,too. They were always discharged and leaking. IIRC,the NiCd pack is 7.2V. So,1.5x7.2V= 10.8VDC Polarity can be determined by examination and a DMM.
Try Ebay for a manual.

BTW,the J16 also had an optional AC power supply that replaced the battery pack,that's what I installed in my bench J16 after the NiCds died one too many times.
