CAUTIONS AND
WARNINGS
IMPORTANT
Pay close attention to
Warnings and Cautions in
this manual. A Warning
describes a condition that
may cause serious
personal injury or death if
allowed to happen. A
Caution describes a
condition that may cause
the cap lamp or other
property to be damaged if
allowed to happen.
DESCRIPTION /
INSTALLATION
DESCRIPTION
INSTALLATION •The plug (not supplied)
must be changed (or
adapted for
International usage) to
match the mating outlet.
The single lamp charger is
designed to recharge all
type T-type batteries.
The charger is equipped
with a variable rate, factory-
set program controlled by a
micro-processor that
maximizes recharge
capacity in the shortest
amount of time. The charge
indicator is an easy-to-read
LED display; with red and
green lights show the
charge status.
The charger is double
insulated and has a
standard two conductor
cable for connection to the
main power supply.
•For clarification of plug
type and AC circuit
requirements, please
consult with qualified
electrical power
personnel or standards.
The charger is set for 230 V
AC operation. For operation
from 115 V AC the following
steps must be taken before
charging:
AC Fuse Holder
Voltage Selector Switch (red)
•The voltage selector
switch underneath the
charger must be set for
115 VAC.
The single lamp battery
charger is also a “float”
charger, which means that
the battery will not be
overcharged if left in charge
mode over long periods of
time.
•The 500 mA fuse
located adjacent to the
voltage selector switch
must be replaced by the
1A. fuse supplied for
operation at 115v VAC.

CAUTION
Operating the charger from
230 VAC while switched for
115 VAC will permanently
damage the charger
transformer and the charger
will need to be replaced.
OPERATION /
MAINTENANCE
OPERATION
1. Any battery must be
recharged - regardless
of how long it has been
used - before next use
in order to maintain the
battery’s rated capacity
and cycle life. Typically,
the approximate
recharge time is 8 hours
after an 8-10 hour
discharge. Longer
recharge times can be
expected if longer
discharge times are
used.
After connection of the cap
lamp, the red LED will
illuminate after a short time,
the circuitry will wait 5
seconds then start the
constant current charge
(stage 1) while monitoring
the charger voltage. When
the charging voltage
reaches 5.3 VDC the
charger switches to a
constant potential of 5.1
volts (stages 2 & 3) for a
set period of time (full
charge is reached when the
green LED is on only), the
charger then switches to a
'‘float’’ mode voltage of 4.6
volts (stage 4) until the
battery is removed. The
battery state of charge is
indicated by the Charge
Indicator Guide.
Note:
If the battery is removed or
input power is interrupted,
the charger will reset to
stage 1 when reconnected.
The charger will quickly
read the level of charge in
the battery then go on to
the appropriate stage
where it left off before the
interruption. It is not
advisable to leave a battery
partially discharged for any
extended length of time.
Doing so will reduce the
cycle life and capacity of
the battery.
2. Plug the charger into an
appropriate power
supply. The yellow LED
on the front panel
indicates that the input
power supply is “on”.
3. To charge the cap
lamp, the headpiece
should be fitted over the
projecting key on the
front of the charger and
rotated clockwise until it
is in the full stop
position. To remove the
lamp from charge –
reverse the procedure.
Stage LED Display Charge Status
1. Constant Current Mode RED light on charging
2. Constant Potential Mode RED and GREEN light on 75% charged
3. Fully Charged GREEN light on fully charged, ready for use
4. Float Mode GREEN light on, RED light flashing float charge mode; ready for use

MAINTENANCE
AND ORDERING
INFORMATION
THERE ARE NO USER
REPLACEABLE PARTS
OTHER THAN THE FUSE.
THE CHARGER IS A
SEALED UNIT AND
SHOULD THEREFORE
NOT BE DISMANTLED
FOR ANY PURPOSE.
1. Each charger is
supplied with an extra
fuse for 115 V AC
operation. Replace any
blown fuses with the
following types which
are readily available
through most electrical
supply sources:
115 V AC – Fuse type –
1A, T1AL
230 V AC – Fuse type –
500mA, T500mAL
The fuse holder is
located on the under
side of the charger,
adjacent to the voltage
selector switch. To
replace a blown fuse,
unscrew the fuse holder
cover anti-clockwise.
Remove the blown fuse,
place the new fuse in
the fuse holder, replace
the cover and screw
clockwise back into the
holder.
2. Refer to the
troubleshooting guide if
the charger is not
working properly, or see
the cap lamp user
manual for lamp and
battery operating
instructions.
