4 Prerequisites
4.1 Environmental and Operating Conditions
– The equipment should be installed in a dry, dust-free place.
– The end of the device is positioned no closer than 4mm (0.157 inch) from the Loctite
product being cured to minimize adhesive contamination on the light source tip. If
adhesive should contaminate the optical output lens, use an appropriate optical tissue
and isopropyl alcohol to clean it.
4.2 Charging the Device
If used cordless, the unit is powered by the internal battery and must be charged at a
minimum if the unit notifies that the battery is empty.
● Plug in the USB power adaptor to the wall power and use the USB cable to connect the
device. The indicator
5
on the rear side of the device lights up in red during charging.
● Unplug the device, when charging is finished. The battery is fully charged, if the
indicator
5
on the rear side of the device lights up in green.

Note!
The battery recharging time varies depending on the remaining battery capacity and
charger type used. When the device is plugged to any USB mains adaptor or USB port, it
automatically detects whether to charge fast or slow. With the supplied USB power
adaptor the unit will always charge fast. If the battery is completely discharged or even
defective, the device can be operated directly from the supplied fast charge mains
adaptor. This feature is provided with the included mains adaptor only.
5 Operation
5.1 Handheld Operation
Two distinct modes are available, time
controlled mode and continuous mode.
Continuous mode:
Press the trigger
button
1
as long as exposure is required.
In this mode the duration of exposure is
limited by safety features only. To change
from time controlled mode to continuous
mode, refer to section 5.3.
Time controlled mode:
Press the trigger
button
1
shortly to start exposure for the
amount of time set. To set/reset the timer
or change from continuous mode to time
controlled mode, refer to section 5.3.
If the UV LED is on, the indicator
5
on the rear side of EQ CL32 LED Spot lights up in
yellow. If the UV LED current or temperature is not OK, the device switches off and
notifies an error. All error notifications are explained in section 7.2
“Error Notifications”.
For hand-held use, the supplied tip guard rubber should be installed. It preserves the
device from rolling away and it dampens mechanical shocks on the optical system.
