1968 W115 220 Gas Starter will not activate

Hi - The starter on my 1968 Mercedes 220 Gas 4 speed . Stopped activation .
The car will not turn over . I took the starter to Napa but the person did not know hiw to use the tester and blew a fuse in the building !!!! So I bought a new one . This did not solve the problem . Went back to Napa and another person fixed the test machine . And my old starter worked !!! Hahha . So I have about 10 Volts and am charging the battery . Have not got the battery up to 12 V .
My first thought was the ignition switch . As wires from the switch go to the starter . 7 Bolts to remove the starter (Again) . Does anyone know how to jump the starter ? Is it a jumper from the Bat + to the small screw on the starter ? I wouldn't think it would be difficult . I have 4 batteries !!!!! I don't think they can all be bad !!! hahah . Any help ?
