Important safety instruction
Instructions pertaining to a risk of fire, electric shock,
exposure to excessive UV radiation, or injury to
persons
Lighted lamp is HOT.
WARNING: to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
exposure to excessive UV radiation, or injury to
persons:
• Turn off/unplug and allow to cool before replacing the
Halogen bulb.
• Halogen bulb gets HOT quickly!
• Do not touch the bulb at any time when operating.
• Only contact switch/plug when turning on.
• Do not touch hot lens or enclosure.
• Do not remain in light if skin feels warm.
• Use only with a 6V H3 Halogen Bulb.
• When changing bulb, use a soft cloth. Oil from skin may
damage bulb.
• Do not operate the spotlight with a missing or damaged
lens or enclosure.
WARNING – when using electrical appliances, basic
precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is
necessary when the spotlight is used near children.
• Use only attachments recommended or sold by the
manufacturer.
WARNING: to reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Do not put spotlight in water or other liquid. Do not place
or store appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a tub
or sink.
• Do not clean this appliance with a water spray or the like.
• Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to
recharge.

5
• When an extension cord is used:
– The marked rating of the detachable power supply
cord or extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of this appliance.
– The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be
tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally
(especially by children).
– The extension cord should be kept dry and off the
ground.
– Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The
smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
– When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords
intended for use outdoors and so marked.
WARNING: FIRE HAZARD: Never contact combustible
material to the lens and never tape or tie the switch in
the on position.
Additional safety instructions for the charger
• Before using the charger, read all the instructions and
cautionary markings on the charger and torch.
• Only charge your torch indoors as the charger is
designed for indoor use only.
• WARNING. Do not allow any liquid to come into contact
with the charger. There is a danger of electric shock.
• The charger is not intended for any use other than
charging the exact type of rechargeable torch as supplied
with the charger. Any other use may result in the risk of
fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• The charger and torch are specifically designed to work
together. Do not attempt to charge the torch with any
other charger than the one supplied.
• Do not place any object on top of the charger as it could
cause overheating. Do not place the charger near any
heat source.
• Do not pull on the lead of the charger to disconnect it
from the power source.
• Make sure that the charger cable is positioned where
it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary. The use of an improper extension cord could
cause the risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not use the charger if it has been subjected to a
heavy knock, dropped or otherwise damaged in any way.
Take the charger to a power tool repair centre for a check
or repair.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Take it to power tool
repair centre when service or repair is required. Incorrect
re-assembly may result in the risk of fire, electric shock or
electrocution.
• The charger is designed for use from a standard
household electrical supply (230–240 volts). Do not
attempt to connect the charger to a supply with a
different supply.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury or property
damage:
• All halogen lights give off heat:
– Do not touch lens while operating.

vehicle accessory outlet, etc.) is 12 volt DC and is able to
supply at least one half amp at 12 volt DC for 8 hours.
Notes: When using a vehicle’s 12 volt DC accessory outlet
as a charging source, be aware that some vehicles require
you to turn on the ignition to power the accessory outlet.
WARNINGS:
• To avoid the risk of property damage, charge up to
15 hours maximum using the ac charging method; up to
8 hours maximum using the dc charging method.
• Never attempt to use the ac charger and dc charging port
simultaneously.

Never submerge the unit in water. If the unit gets dirty,
gently clean the outer surfaces of the spotlight unit with
a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution of water and
detergent.
Except for the 6V/25 watt bulb, there are no user-
replaceable parts. Periodically inspect the condition of
adapters, connectors and wires. Contact manufacturer to
replace any components that have become worn or broken.
Battery replacement/disposal
Battery replacement
The battery should last the service life of the unit. Contact
manufacturer for any information you may need.

acid battery, which must be disposed of properly. Recycling
is required, contact your local authority for information.
WARNINGS:
• Do not dispose of the battery in fire as this may result in
an explosion.
• Before disposing of the battery, protect exposed terminals
with heavy-duty electrical tape to prevent shorting
(shorting can result in injury or fire).
• Do not expose battery to fire or intense heat as it may
explode.
Spotlight bulb replacement
To replace the bulb, you will need a small Phillips
screwdriver and a 6 volt/H3 replacement bulb. During
installation, avoid touching the glass part of the bulb.
Bulb life may be shortened by installing a bulb with dirt or
fingerprints on it. The bulb can be wiped clean with a cloth
moistened with alcohol.
1. Disconnect the unit from any charging adapters.
2. Push the rubber bezel forward toward the front of the
spotlight to reveal two small Phillips screws in the
retaining ring.

two screws. Set them aside.
4. Lift off the retaining plastic cover, glass lens and set
them aside.
5. Carefully remove the reflector and bulb assembly.
6. Disconnect the bulb wire from the red power wire.
7. Unsnap the hairpin retaining wires from the reflector’s
flange.
8. Lift out the bulb.
9. Insert the replacement bulb into the reflector’s flange.
Re assemble in the reverse order.
WARNING: Only use a 6 Hs replacement bulb.
12 volt DC charger plug fuse replacement
The fuse in the plug end of the 12 volt DC charger protects
the adapter’s charging circuit. If the 240vAC plug pack
charger operates, but the DC charging adapter does not,
then this fuse may be opened (blown).
To replace the fuse:
1. Unscrew the end cap of the DC plug (counterclockwise).
2. Remove spring center contact and fuse.
3. Check fuse with a continuity checker.
4. If blown, locate a replacement 2 amp/250 volt fuse.
5. Replace the fuse, spring, contact and end cap.
6. Screw end cap clockwise until it is finger tight – DO NOT
OVER-TIGHTEN.
7. Test for proper operation of the 12 Volt DC Charging
Adapter.
