CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
1. Prior to the operation of any firearm in conjunction with the XT-120 make
sure that you completely understand all safety precautions and procedures
contained in the XT-120 operator’s manual as well as in the manual for your
firearm. Failure to follow these precautions may result in damage to property,
serious injury or death.
2. Always follow proper safety precautions with any firearm whether or not
equipped with the XT-120.
3. Never point a firearm at anything you do not intend to shoot whether or
not equipped with the XT-120.
4. When the XT-120 is attached to a firearm, pointing the XT-120 at a person
or object will automatically also point the firearm at that person or object.
Therefore, never point the XT-120 at anything you do not intend to shoot. The
XT-120 produces adequate light levels to illuminate a subject without the
1

need to point directly at the subject. Light from the XT-120 can be safely
pointed at a wall, ceiling or floor and the resulting reflected light will be
sufficient to identify the object of interest. The XT-120’s light beam can also
be adjusted for wide-angle illumination.
5. The XT-120 allows you to operate the ON/OFF switch while your finger is
outside the trigger guard. Do not insert your finger inside the trigger guard
until prepared to fire the weapon.
6. Before attaching or detaching the XT-120, always make certain the the
chamber of your firearm is empty by following the “clearing” procedure
detailed in your firearm’s operator’s manual.
7. Before cleaning the XT-120, replacing bulbs or batteries or any other
maintenance, remove the XT-120 from the firearm.

8. Do not operate the XT-120 around any flammable or combustible material
such as cleaning solvents, paints or gasoline. Do not operate the XT-120
in an environment which may contain flammable gasses such as evapo-
rated gasoline.
9. Test the XT-120 periodically, especially after periods of non-use or prior
to employment to verify that it is operating properly.
10. The XT-120 requires completely charged batteries for proper operation.
Be careful when handling batteries to prevent leakage of harmful chemicals
which can damage skin, clothing or the XT-120 itself. To avoid injury, do
not expose batteries to excessive heat or allow any material leaked from a
battery to come in contact with eyes or skin. Follow instructions from the
battery manufacturer regarding the proper handling, storage and disposal
of batteries.
11. CAUTION: The bulb in the XT-120 generates intense heat. When
switched ON, never place the light on its face (bulb down) or you may
cause damage to the XT-120 or the surface on which it is placed.

Mounting the XT-120
1. With your “cleared and safe” firearm in either hand, hold the
XT-120 in the other hand with the bulb pointing away from your
body in the same direction as the weapon muzzle.
2. Raise the XT-120 up and toward the firearm with the grooves of
the XT-120 aligned with the firearm grooves. Slide the XT-120 back
until the latch engages with an audible “click.”
3. Test the security of the latch by attempting to slide the XT-120
forward. It should remain secure and, if so, is safely mounted.
