OVERVIEW
The Nomad®Prime & P56 provide 3–24 hours of continuous lighting. It
converts from an area light to spotlight in seconds by attaching/detaching the
Diffuser Lens. Its portable, waterproof and adaptive design allows it to be
used in places where other area lights cannot. You can use it as a bazooka
light to survey an area or illuminate your path. In around 20 seconds, you’ll be
able to deploy the self-contained Tripo-Scope®Legs and raise the telescoping
head up to 8 ft tall to illuminate the work area.
IMPORTANT!
Please fully charge the Battery System before using the Nomad®for the
first time.

1. Set the Nomad®down vertically, on a flat surface, as shown. Open the
Protective Light Cap and twist the Locking Sleeve to the right ( ) and
slide upwards ( ). While still holding the Locking Sleeve up, twist it back to
the left ( ).The Folding Tripo-Scope®Legs are now accessible to deploy
( ).
2. Unfold each Tripo-Scope®Leg and make sure they are locked in place by
the Leg Locks (see the "Nomad®Reference Guide" on pg. 3 for location).
3. Pull the Light Head up from inside the Locking Sleeve. If using for
directional lighting, tilt and adjust the Light Head accordingly. Then, based
on preference or need, adjust the Diffuser Lens to either Spot or Area
lighting (see "Diffuser Lens" on pg. 8 for more information).
4. Adjust the angle and swivel position of the Light Head by loosening the Tilt
Adjustment Knob to the desired orientation and then re-tighten.
Light Head placement and adjustment can be made easier by
tightening the Hinge Screw (located near the Tilt Adjustment Knob).
5. Elevate the Light Head to desired height by raising the Tripo-Scope®Poles.
Tighten the Tripo-Scope®Tightening Rings (clockwise) to hold the poles at
desired height.
IMPORTANT: To reposition, loosen the Tightening Rings, bring the
Tripo-Scope®Poles down again and turn the Light Head OR physically
pick up and move the position of the whole Nomad®. DO NOT TRY TO
TURN THE TRIPO-SCOPE®POLES AGAINST EACH OTHER. This
can cause permanent damage.
6. On uneven ground, adjust each Tripo-Scope® Leg individually, as necessary.
Lift the leg off the ground, and then, using both thumbs, press and hold
both of the Leg Extension Release Tabs until the Leveling Leg Extensions
(located at the end of each of the Tripo-Scope®Legs) are released.
Retract the Leveling Leg Extensions in the same manner.
Fine adjustment can be made by turning the Leveling Leg Extension
by hand. Use the Level Bubble for reference.
In case of heavy wind or extreme weather conditions, attach a sand
bag, or equivalent weight, to the concealed Anchor Strap (see the
"Anchor Strap" on pg. 9 for location).
THE NOMAD®IS NOW READY FOR USE!

Make sure the Nomad®is OFF and UNPLUGGED before starting.
1. Open the Folding Tripo-Scope®Legs so they are locked and deployed.
Then, locate a Battery Cover.
2. Use a Phillips Head (+) #1 Screwdriver to remove the four (4) screws that
hold the Battery Cover. Once the screws are removed, pull the Battery
Cover off and set it aside.
Once the Battery Cover is removed, the Battery Tube is accessible.
3. At the TOP of the Battery Tube, there will be a red (positive) Battery
Tube Cap. Place an index finger on it and pull the tube out by the red Cap
(this should then help the bottom portion (black Cap) of the Battery Tube
to easily slide out of the Battery Compartment). This action is similar to
removing a AA battery from any generic battery holder.
To easily remove the Battery Tube from the Nomad®Body, it is best to
pull straight out from the "crown" of the Red Cap.
NOTE: The wiring for the positive (+) and negative (–) Caps will remain
attached to the Nomad®Body while the Battery Tube is pulled out of
the Battery Compartment.
4. Remove the Battery Tube Caps (red and black) from each end of the
Battery Tube. This can be done by simply popping the Battery Tube Cap
off with one thumb.
DO NOT pull the Battery Tube Caps by the wires.
REPEAT STEPS 1– 4 FOR THE 5 REMAINING BATTERIES.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY TUBES |30 MINS
Installing the Nomad®Battery Tubes follows the same procedures as removing
them but in reverse order.
1. Start with the bottom of the Battery Tube. Attach the black Cap to the
NEGATIVE end of the Tube. While holding the Cap in place, reinsert it into
the Battery Compartment, at an angle.
2. While still applying downward pressure to the Battery Tube, attach the red
Cap to the opposite POSITIVE end of the Tube. Once secure, slide the
Tube into place in the Battery Compartment.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to place the red and black wires directly
behind the Battery Tube before re-installing the Tube into the Battery
Compartment. This will prevent the wires from being damaged, and it
will help the Battery Tube go back into place easier.
3. Once the Battery Tube is installed, test the Nomad®to make sure it turns
ON. If it does not, check the Battery Tubes for any connection errors with
the positive (+) and negative (–) ends. Then, place the Battery Cover back
over the Battery Tube and tighten the four (4) screws into place.

REMOVING/INSTALLING THE DIFFUSER LENS |1 MIN
1. Press the retaining fastener through the heatsink fins, laterally. The spring
end will compress allowing it to fit through the hole.
Use a small hand tool such as a flathead screwdriver.
2. Then, pull the fastener along with the Diffuser Lens and tether free from
the Light Head.
3. The Diffuser Lens can be placed between the two most distal heatsink
fins for a temporary holding place when adjusting from Area to Spot, to
360° with the Scene Cap, or during routine maintenance.
FOR RE-INSTALLATION: Repeat steps 1–2 in reverse order. Make sure that
the centerline of the loop at the end of the tether is placed between the two
most distal fins and aligned with the hole when inserting the fastener.

STORING YOUR NOMAD®
Make sure the light is powered OFF by pressing the Power/Mode Switch
until the light is no longer ON.
Be sure to position the Light Head into the upright position BEFORE
lowering the Tripo-Scope®Poles in the body.
Put the Nomad®back into the Stored Position. Lower the Tripo-Scope®
Poles by untightening the Tripo-Scope®Tightening Rings. Then, push the
Light Head back into the Locking Sleeve.
If the AC-DC Adaptor or 12VDC Cigarette Lighter Cable is being used,
disconnect it from the Nomad®and store.
WARNINGS WHEN STORING
The Nomad®depends on “ambient air” for cooling of its Light Head. After
being ON for a while, the Nomad®Heatsink Fins (which help disperse
heat) behind the Light Head will become warm to the touch (possibly hot)
depending upon the run time, setting, and/or air temperature. The warmer
the ambient air temperature is, the faster the head’s temperature will
increase.
When it is time to put the Nomad®away, either wait for the unit to cool off
(usually 10–20 min) or protect hands (with work gloves or a cloth) when
adjusting the Light Head.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE TIPS
The Nomad®reaches a full charge in approximately 5 hours. (Charge time
may depend on ambient conditions and battery health).
Maintain the light fully charged at all times, so that it is ready for use in
the event of an emergency.
If used outdoors in cold weather for an extended period of time allow the
Nomad®to warm up to above 10°C/50°F before charging.
Lithium-Ion batteries have a 500 full charge cycle life (CC followed by a
CV cycle)*. When the light gets near this number of cycles, there will be a
decrease in usage time. *CC=Constant Current charge (fast rate)
The lithium-Ion batteries have a top-off or micro-charge life of around
1,200 cycles or more (CV only)*. If the Nomad®is unused for 60 to 90
days, plug in the AC/DC Adaptor for 1 to 2 hours to bring the batteries
back up to peak charge. *CV=Constant Voltage charge (slow rate)
As needed, wash the Nomad®using a soft washcloth, clean water and a
mild soap. When done, pat dry with a soft cloth.
