Before Use
Assembly & initial charging
IWARNING: The sealed lead acid battery in this product will be drained
from storage. The following steps must be taken to ensure it is charged
correctly. This will maximise the performance and working life of the
battery:
1. Press the Halogen/LED Ring On/Off Switch (6) until both the LED ring and
Halogen bulb (3) are OFF. The switch toggles between
Off - Halogen - Off - LED ring and then repeats
2. Switch the Warning Light Switch (6) to O (off)
3. Plug the Mains Charger (8) in to the mains power supply, and plug the
small end into the charging socket
4. Leave to charge for a MINIMUM of 16 hours before first use
Note:
If your Torch does not seem to be charging, try the above steps to
MAKE SURE that the Halogen / LED Ring On / Off Switch is in the OFF
position.
Recharging
Note: With this type of battery, it is best to 'top up' the charge after each
use, when possible. If the Torch is not used frequently, recharge at least
every 3 months to maintain battery condition.
• When using the Mains Charger (8), charge an empty battery for a
minimum of 10 hours
• When using the 12V Charger (9), charge an empty battery for a minimum
of 8 hours
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to a power source. Carrying
electrical devices with your finger on the switch or energising devices
that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the device in unexpected situations.
Use and Care
a) Do not force the device. Use the correct device for your
application.
The correct device will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the electrical device if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any device that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing electrical devices. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the device accidentally.
d) Store idle devices out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the device or these instructions to operate
it. Electrical devices may be dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e)
Maintain electrical devices. Check for defects of parts and any
other condition that may affect the device’s operation. If damaged,
have the device repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained electrical devices.
f)
Use the device and its accessories in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the conditions and the task to
be performed. Use of the device for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
a) Have your electrical devices serviced by a qualified repairperson
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the device is maintained.
