Thank you for purchasing the First-Light USA Tomahawk® GP Tactical Light. Please

FINGER LOOP
Your Tomahawk comes equipped with a
Finger Loop installed in a neutral/straight-
forward position. In order to enhance the
ergonomic control of the Tomahawk, it is
recommended that the Finger Loop be
slightly offset to better align the thumb with
the control panel.
The Finger Loop can be moved by pushing it
to the desired position.
INSTALLING FINGER LOOP
A smaller Finger Loop is also provided. In
order to install the smaller Finger Loop,
loosen the threaded connection between the
lamp housing and battery housing until the
large Finger Loop is loosened to a point at
which it can be removed. Insert the collar of
the smaller Finger Loop so that it is seated
within the machined groove located at the top
of the battery housing.
IMPORTANT: It is important to
ensure that the Finger Loop remains
securely seated during use. Hand-
tighten the connection between the
battery housing and lamp housing as
rmly as possible.

LOCK (RED/GREEN)
INDICATOR
LOW BATTERY INDICATION
When the Tomahawk nears the end of its
useful battery life, the red lock indicator will
begin to ash (once every 2.5 seconds)
during use (visible light mode only). This
indicates that the batteries should be
replaced immediately.
Once the red lock indicator begins to ash,
your Tomahawk will cease to function
normally. It is programmed to maximize
useful run time by limiting all light output to
the lowest brightness setting. Soon after,
the light will cease to function and will
enter Lockout Mode.

The Tomahawk MOLLE Tactical Retention System
(TRS) will allow your Tomahawk to be mounted to
MOLLE/PALS webbing for hands-free use. When
horizontally mounted (see Figure B) to TRS the
Tomahawk can be rotated nearly 180° up or down.
If vertical mounting is desired (see Figure C),
simply unscrew the MALICE clips from the TRS
Receiver and reattach them vertically. This allows
your light to be rotated 180° left or right. The TRS
can also be adjusted for either left- or right-handed
release in the same manner.
To mount the Tomahawk to the TRS Receiver,
insert the dovetail sleeve on the Tomahawk’s
battery housing into the TRS Receiver until a “click”
is heard to ensure proper seating. To release, push
the spring-loaded button located at the top of the
Receiver then slide the dovetail connection free.

TOMAHAWK MOLLE STEEL CLIP (IF EQUIPPED)
The Tomahawk MOLLE Steel Clip can be
adjusted to a desired position by loosening the
connection between the battery housing and
the lamp housing to the point where the Steel
Clip can be moved.
Move the Steel Clip to the desired position and
re-tighten the connection.
MOLLE/PALS Webbing Attachment
The Tomahawk MOLLE Steel Clip is specially
designed to attaching securely to MOLLE/
PALS webbing. See Figure A to view suggested
mounting option.
