Important Safety Warnings
WARNING
• Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specications provided with
this appliance. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re
and/or serious injury.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the
appliance with your nger on the switch or energizing the appliance that has the switch on
invites accidents.
• Disconnect the appliance from power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or storing the appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
• Do not direct the light beam at persons or pets and avoid staring into the light even
from a distance. Serious eye injury could occur.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not stare at operating lamp. Serious eye injury could
occur.
• To reduce the risk of burns, do not touch hot lens.
• Do not operate this light in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases, or dust. The light generates heat which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
• Recharge battery packs only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with
another battery pack.
• Use appliances only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.

SAFETY INFORMATION
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modied. Damaged or
modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or risk of
injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to re or excessive temperature. Exposure
to re or temperature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance
outside of the temperature range specied in the instructions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside of the specied range may damage the battery and increase the
risk of re.
• The service should only be performed by a qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack except as
indicated in the instructions for use and care.
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when a product is used
near children.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Expanding/Collapsing the Tripod Legs
WARNING
• To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected
movement, check to make sure that the tripod
does not rock, slide, or move prior to use.
• To reduce the risk of injury and damage,
do not use the tripod on uneven or inclined
surfaces. If you must use the tripod on an inclined
surface, secure it in place as instructed in the
chapter “To Expand the Tripod Legs” below.
• To reduce the risk of injury, when folding the
tripod, keep the other hand away from the
tripod legs and be careful not to pinch your
ngers.
To Expand the Tripod Legs
a. Stand the tripod upright on its base.
b. Press the tripod release button (L) and slide down the carrying handle (M) to expand the
legs (J) as far as they will go.
c. Hold the carrying handle (M) with one hand to keep the legs spread, grab the tray (H) with
the other hand and lift the tray up until you hear a “click”, which indicates that the legs are
secured.
NOTE: Each leg can be further extended to level the tripod. The adjustable height range for
the tower light is 0-1.5 inches (0-38mm).
d. To further extend the legs to level the tripod, turn the extension lock knob (K)
counterclockwise to loosen the leg extension, then slide the knob up slowly along the leg.
When the tripod is level, tighten the extension lock knob clockwise to secure the leg in
place. If necessary, repeat this step with the other legs.
TIP: It is much easier to extend a leg if the tripod is tipped slightly on the other two legs. This
will relieve the weight on the leg being extended. Hold the tripod by the carrying handle (M) to
prevent it from falling.
NOTE:
• There is a 1/4” (6.5 mm) hole in the foot of each leg. When using the tripod on an uneven
surface, nails or screws can be driven through these holes to secure the tripod.
To Collapse the Tripod Legs
a. Remove all items from the tray, if any.
b. Turn the extension lock knobs (K) counterclockwise to unlock the legs (J). Adjust the each
leg extension to their original positions (the lock knobs are at the bottom) and turn the lock
knobs clockwise to lock the legs.
c. Press the tripod release button (L) and slide the carrying handle (M) up to collapse the legs (J).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTICE:
• The tripod can be collapsed only when all the legs’ extensions are adjusted to their original
positions.
• Do not loosen the extension lock knob(s) too far, the lock knob will fall off. If it falls off, reinstall it.
WARNING
• When the tripod release button (L) is pressed to collapse the legs, the base of the
tripod will sink to the ground. Be careful not to pinch your hands or feet.
4. To Extend the Height
WARNING
• When extending the height of the tripod,
hold the upper or lower extension tube with
one hand and unlock the clamp with the
other. If not held properly, the top portion of
the tripod and any tool mounted to the tripod
could descend rapidly and cause serious
personal injury or property damage.
• Keep everyone - helpers, bystanders,
children, and animals - a safe distance from
the extended tripod. Serious personal injury
or property damage could occur if the tripod is
tipped. Unless you are adjusting or mounting a tool to the tripod, keep a safe distance away
from the tripod.
The maximum height of the tower light is 7 ft. (2.13m).
To Pull out the Extension Tubes:
a. Unlock the lower clamp (G), raise the lower extension tube (F) to the desired height. Lock
the tube in place.
b. Unlock the upper clamp (E), raise the upper extension tube (D) to the desired height. Lock
the tube in place.
NOTE:
• Raise the upper extension tube gradually. Do not extend the tripod beyond a stable height.
• The upper extension tube can be rotated 0-180° and the entire light holder will be rotated
with the tube.
To Collapse the Extension Tubes:
a. Hold the lower extension tube (F) rmly with one hand, loosen the lower clamp (G) with the
other. Then slowly lower the tube to the lowest position and lock it in place.
b. Hold the upper extension tube (D) rmly with one hand, loosen the upper clamp (E) with
the other. Then slowly lower the tube to the lowest position and lock it in place.
WARNING

during the collapse operation, the extension tube may fall rapidly, causing the tower
light to topple or other personal injury.
