The RL-14 may also be charged without using rack by plugging the charge cord directly into the
socket in the rear of the RL-14.
5.
To release the light from the rack, push the black release bar down, slide the light away from the
release bar and lift up.
6.
The battery is rated at a nominal 7 ampere-hours and is capable of being recharged up to 500
times.
7.
The switch is on the left side of the handle. A pair of charging indicators is located on the
opposite side underneath the information label. The red LED means that the light is charging.
The green LED means it is charged and ready for use.
8.
It is important to understand that a battery can take from only minutes to a maximum of 24
hours to fully charge depending on the battery’s residual charge and other factors. For some
period of time near the end of charge, both the Red and Green LED’s may be on at the same
time. When fully charged, the red LED should turn “off” completely and the green LED should be
on steadily.
CHARGER MOUNTING
Before drilling any holes, make sure there is room to insert and remove the RL-14.
Four self-tapping 1 ¼ #8 screws are included with each rack and should be sufficient for most
mounting situations.
Should your mounting situations require heavier hardware, use #8 machine screws.
The recommended mounting positions are from horizontal to vertical (with the lamp end facing
up).
VEHICLE CHARGING
The direct wire charge rack is available for permanent installation (The standard charge rack can be used
with standard DC cord # 22051, which has a cigarette lighter plug for temporary installations.)
IMPORTANT:
Before making electrical connections in a vehicle, keep in mind that a shorted auto battery
can easily start a fire.
Make all connections with insulated lugs or other connectors intended for such use. Be sure that
your installation is fused. (A five amp fuse must be used on the positive lead.)
The red or red striped lead is positive and the unmarked lead is negative. When connecting the
charger to a fuse block, the red positive power lead goes to the connector that is dead when the
vehicle’s fuse is removed.
The charge body is electrically isolated from the charge circuit and allows positive ground
installations.
