The Dual Halogen Floodlight HL21 is suitable for indoor or outdoor use,
from any standard power point and is weatherproof to IP54
Extreme care should be taken when handling and operating the dual Halogen Floodlight
HL21. Please observe the following do’s and don’ts to ensure safe and trouble free use:
DO
ensure combustible material is kept away from Floodlight.
DO
use the handle (A) to adjust the beam.
DO
keep the floodlight out of reach of children when in use.

weigh down base of tripod with sandbags for extra stability if necessary. ie. one or
more plastic bags filled with sand, then tied to pole or tripod legs.
DO
use the Floodlights in horizontal position (+4°). If not used in
horizontal position the tube life will be greatly reduced.

Tighten locking knob. Always keep the
centre telescopic pole vertical for
stability and safety.

tripod, then fit the floodlights to the
crossbar using the screws and
threaded knobs provided.
Fix the "Y" junction of the power cord by
using the screw at the centre side face
of the crossbar.
The pole may be raised by loosening
the locking ring and extending the
sections. Tighten locking ring to hold in
place. Full height is approximately 1.8m.
The tungsten halogen tube is supplied and packed separately to avoid damage. Open the
Floodlight housing by loosening the top screw. The glass front of the housing will hinge
forward and down. Ensure that Floodlight is unplugged from wall socket. Insert the tube
in the holder, ensuring that you do not touch the glass envelope of the tube with bare
hands. Use the tube wrapper to handle tube. Check that the tube is seated correctly on
the holder contacts.
(Oils from the hands can cause the tube to fail or shatter).
If necessary the tube should be carefully cleaned with methylated spirit and dried
before installation. Do not attempt to adjust or force the tube holder with tools, but
carefully push the tube into the holder contacts. Reassemble the Floodlight housing.
