Do not disassemble the flashlight except for unscrewing the thread ring gage and replacing the rubber button. There are no
other parts in the flashlight that can be replaced by the user.
1. Always follow the instructions from this manual and recommendations on battery usage.
2. Apply only the recommended power sources.
3. Do not reverse battery polarity.
4. Do not use different power sources together, i.e. old ones with new ones, charged with
discharged. Do not use different types of batteries combined as the element with less
capacity can be damaged.
5. Do not modify or recast the flashlight and its components as it will deprive you of the
warranty.
6. Do not allow water or any other liquid to leak into the flashlight.
7. Do not aim a switched-on flashlight at people's or animals' eyes – it can cause temporary
blindness.
8. Do not allow children to use the flashlight without your assistance.
It is recommended to clean the threads and O-rings off dirt and old grease once or twice per year. Remember that reliable protection
from water and dust cannot be provided by worn out sealing. The fouling as well as lack of lubricant cause fast wear-out of threads and
sealing rings. To clean the threads do the following:
1. Unscrew the tailcap and remove the sealing ring carefully with a toothpick (do not use sharp metal things as they can damage the ring).
2. Wipe the sealing ring thoroughly with a soft cloth (or tissue). Do not use solvents. If the sealing ring is worn out or damaged
replace it by a new one.
3. Clean the metal threads with a brush using ethanol. Be careful not to allow the applied liquid to get inside the flashlight or tailcap as
it can cause fails in functionality of the flashlight.
After cleaning lubricate the thread and the sealing ring with polyalphaolefin-based silica grease, e.g. Nyogel 760G.The application of
automotive and other improper grease can cause swelling and damage of the sealing rings.
In case of active operation and exploitation in dusty environments, it is recommended to perform cleaning and lubricating of the parts
as often as required.
Armytek provides free warranty repair for 10 years from the date of purchase.
Warranty doesn't cover damage caused by:
1. Improper usage.
2. Attempts to modify or repair the flashlight by nonqualified specialists.
3. Longtime application in chlorinated or polluted water, or other liquids (other than water).
4. High temperatures and chemicals' exposure (including the exposure of liquid from defected batteries).
5. Usage of low-quality batteries.
The producer will not be liable for any harm done to the user if it was caused by
improper use of the product.
In case the rubber button is damaged, it should be replaced. You can also replace the switch with
the spring in the same way. Replacement order:
1. Unscrew the tailcap.
2. Unscrew the first washer inside it to take out the switch. To do so you should use needle-
nose pliers (round-nose pliers or another tool, the most suitable will be expansion pliers).
Use the tool as it is shown at the picture. To replace the rubber button unscrew the second
washer under the switch.
3. Replace the rubber button and assemble the parts in inverse sequence.

Initial Service
To set/replace batteries:
1. Unscrew the tailcap.
2. Place the batteries with the positive contact (+) facing the head of the flashlight.
3. Adjust the tailcap and tighten it as far as it can go.
ьYour flashlight can inconsiderably differ from the pictures in the manual.
ьThe producer reserves the right to change the package at his own discretion without modifying this manual.
ьWe DO NOT RECOMMEND to use low-quality CR123A batteries, because they can explode. Turbo mode needs
rechargeable 18650 Li-Ion batteries without PCB (unprotected) or with PCB which guarantees 7A discharge current
for stable work.
ьWe DO NOT RECOMMEND to leave power sources inside the flashlight for a long storage period, as batteries can leak for various reasons
and damage the inner parts of the flashlight. If you want to keep your flashlight in a stand-by state with batteries in then use new and high-
quality batteries and store the flashlight in acceptable for batteries operational temperature and revise the batteries' state at least once a
month. If you have noticed any signs of batteries' defects then withdraw them from the flashlight and utilize. It is also recommended to
replace discharged batteries with new ones before the storage as the chance of leakage is higher with discharged batteries.
Active temperature control. The flashlight can quickly heat up in Turbo mode. When the temperature becomes +60°C – the
brightness decreases by small steps. After cooling-down (provided that battery voltage is sufficient) the brightness increases to the
Turbo mode again. This stepping goes cyclically to maintain the user's safety and the flashlight's functionality. In conditions of good
air-cooling the flashlight delivers light without stepping down even in Turbo mode. There are no preset timers for stepping, but real-
time active temperature measurements.
Operation
Momentary on – any mode switched on by half-pressing of the
button (no click!) and active till the button is released. It is suitable
