Warnings and Precautions:
** DO NOT TOUCH THE LIGHT HEAD OR BULB DURING AND AFTER USE.
THEY CAN BECOME EXTREMELY HOT AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS.
* Do not run the light until the battery is completely dead (over-discharging) as this can
permanently damage the battery.
* The Intellicharger charges approximately 10 hours before reverting to "pulse" charging. Any
disruption of power to the Intellicharger will reset the charging cycle.
* The recharging unit is for indoor use only and is designed only for use with this lighting system.
* The battery and the charger will become warm during charging. If either becomes too hot to
touch, discontinue charging and contact your dealer.
* Disconnect the battery cable from the light head during non use to avoid accidental light
activation and possible fire hazard from heat of the bulb.
* The NiMH battery pack is a sealed unit. Do not attempt to open it as it can damage the unit
and voids the warranty.
* To ensure maximum run-time, make sure the battery is fully charged before use.
* If the battery is not used for a long period of time, charge it once every three months to
maintain the life of the Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery.
* During long periods of non-use, make sure the charger and battery cables are unplugged from
the battery pack. If they are not unplugged, it will slowly drain the battery over time.
Changing Bulb/Reflector
*MAKE SURE BULB AND CASE ARE COOL BEFORE CHANGING BULB
1) Remove both side bracket mounting screws from light head
2) Unscrew two tiny screws from underside of light head
3) Carefully pull black bottom plate out of the case
4) Loosen two tiny screws securing the bulb to the case so that the contacts move freely
5) Carefully pull bulb out of pin receptacles
6) Insert the new bulb into the light case by lining bulb contact pins with the light case pin
receptacles. Hold pin receptacles with finger and insert bulb pins to a depth so that top of bulb
glass lens seats just behind top case bulb retainer
7) Tighten screws to secure bulb in place
8) Replace bottom plate screws and side bracket screws and test light function
Note: Make sure all pieces are replaced correctly before closing the light case
