Battery connection

I purchased a W40z B218 lift. No batteries and the owner gave me a diagram. Purchased 4 batteries that will work but when I check the voltage between batteries it shows 12 volts. It says it's a 24v lift. The batteries are equal to US Battery 1800xC2 6 volt. I saw the lift work but the seller wanted the batteries for another unit because they were new. The drawing looks like a combo of serial and parallel connections.
Thanks

The black box flight recorder was invented by Australian scientist David Warren in the mid-1950s. While initially met with indifference in Australia, his invention gained international recognition, particularly in the UK, and is now a mandatory piece of safety equipment on all commercial aircraft.
