Contacts voltage
Originally the 45CT1 had high trigger voltage. In the production period Metz improved it to a much lower voltage release circuit. Metz homepage (metz.de) holds the information, from which serial number on have 45-CT1s low trigger voltage. However, even the high trigger voltage was lower than 200 volts, thus safe for your Fuji.

I own a Metz 45 CT 1 and I want to change the
I take it you mean the rechargeable cells in a NiCd or NiMH battery pack?
Firstly you need to prise the top off the battery pack. This is the end that goes into the flashgun. start at the "flat" side and pull the pieces of plastic on either side of the central divider toward you. They should click out and spring upwards. Work around the battery pack pulling the plastic rim away from the body. You can see where the clips are from the dents in the top plate. Work round towards the back (rounded end). The top will eventually spring off with a bit of help. If the battery has a chrge reminder "switch", remove that bit of plastic and keep it safe for later.
Now remove the long crosshead screw that you find underneath, but don't attempt to prise the unit in half yet. Next remove the battery terminal clips from the plastic. They're a push fit and will probably require some needle-nose pliers to remove. INSULATE THE REMOVED TERMINALS WITH TAPE. Otherwise you may short the terminals and melt something or explode a cell.
Now you can gently prise the two halves of the casing apart. Use a wiggling action and ease the wires down the casing to make room for tilting the two halves apart. (This will make sense as you get the casing apart). The blue and red wires have to be desoldered from the cell terminals before the casing can be completely separated.
You should now be good to remove the cells and insert your new ones. Good luck with that!
Finally reverse the above procedure to reassemble.
