The way to set it is two-fold:
1. pull out the tabs for the times you do not want the light (or other) to be on. The tabs that are left in will be powered.
2. Set the time of day by turning the know to the indicator arrow.

SOURCE: Need how to use my timer. Brinks digital plug in

Manual appears on following links:
http://waterheatertimer.org/Woods-timers-and-manuals.html#Brinks
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Brinks-44-1020-manual.pdf

The manual has important illustrations, and has more words than allowed for free answer.
Open manual and get as far along as you can, and then add a comment where manual is confusing and I will help.

The battery is rechargeable type, so plug timer into outlet for hour and then unplug timer to set programming.

The Brinks Model 42-1014 fails after a few weeks. The motor that turns the timer dial is not strong enought to trigger the on switch. I can move the dial by hand to turn it on and it does turn off but...

I agree.
I test timers.
Brinks timers are near lowest quality of all timer brands, yet all timer manufactures sell lower end products to meet price points. Brinks are probably made by one of the bigger brands.

Test your outlet with cheap circuit analyzer from box store to make sure that polarity of outlet is not reversed. Notice that Brinks timers, like most plug-in timers, have polarized plug.
Polarized plug has wide and narrow blades so they plug into outlet correctly.
Wide blade is for Neutral, and narrow blade is for Hot.
If outlet has polarity reversed, this will adversely affect timer motors, and other appliances.
