Coast HL27 User Manual

Instructions for COAST HL27 Headlamp

BATTERY INSTALLATION: The HL27 uses three AA alkaline batteries and are located in the rear of the headlamp. To

access the battery compartment, pull the elastic head band slightly away from the battery pack. Remove the rubber
battery pack cover by grasping the tab at the top of cover and pulling it away from the battery pack. Insert the batteries
in the direction indicated inside the battery pack. Replace rubber battery pack cover, making sure that the cover is
seated firmly over the rim of the battery pack. Never mix old and new batteries. Remove batteries before storing
headlamp during non-usage.

LIGHT OPERATION: To turn on the light, fully depress the red power switch on top of the light. To turn off the light,
depress the red switch on top of the light a second time. To adjust the brightness, turn the red Light Output Control
Wheel located directly behind the power switch. Move to the right to increase the brightness and left to decrease the
brightness.

FOCUS AND BEAM POSITION ADJUSTMENT: This headlamp is equipped with COAST’s Pure Beam™ Focusing Optic
System with Twist Focus which allows the user to choose between a broad flood beam and a focused Bulls-Eye Spot™
beam for long distance illumination. To adjust the beam into the broad, flood light mode, turn the Focus Ring around the
lens of the light clockwise when wearing the headlamp. To adjust the beam into the Bulls-Eye Spot™ mode, turn the
Focus Ring around the lens of the light counter clockwise when wearing the headlamp. The hinged beam adjustment
allows you to tilt the beam of light down into position to illuminate objects directly in front of you or in your hands. To
adjust the beam position, hold the housing of the light with one hand and tilt the head of the light where the red power
button is located down and away from your head with the other hand.

HEAD STRAP ADJUSTMENT AND TOP STRAP REMOVAL: To adjust the HL27 to fit your head, slide the buckles on the
side head strap and/or the top strap. It may be necessary to slide the head of the light and battery pack on the side
head strap to center the light once the head band is adjusted to the proper size. The top strap can also be removed if
desired. To remove the top strap, grasp one side of the strap holder where it attaches to the main housing and pull
back, slightly flexing the strap holder, to release it from the main housing; then slide the rear part of the strap through
the slot on top of the battery pack. Reverse the operation to re-install.

HARD HAT SAFETY HELMET CLIP USE: The HL27 includes helmet clips for use with hard hat style safety helmets. To use
the helmet clips, loosen the side and top headbands to fit the helmet and attach the clips to the side strap of the
headlamp, evenly spaced with two on each side. Note: One of the clips has a wider loop in order to fit over the area on
the side headband where the Z cord is located. Put the headlamp on the safety helmet and attach the clips to the rim
of the helmet. Some adjustment of the clip positions and head straps will be necessary for proper fit on safety helmets.
Note: Clips are designed for use ONLY with HARD HAT style safety helmets. They are not acceptable for use on most
sporting safety helmets.

MAINTENANCE: Wipe the external body with a damp cloth. Do not submerge.
