Bonus bulb included

This fixture includes a spare bulb, which insures that you can
always finish your job or project without interruption due to bulb
failure. The spare bulb and holder are located in the center han­dle of the portable fixture (Figure I) NOTE: Always handle
halogen bulbs with gloves or with a clean soft cloth. Oil from your
skin can cause premature failure of the bulb.

Replacing the bulb

Step 2: Turn wing nut on back of handle counterclockwise to remove handle.

Using a Phillips screwdriver loosen the screw on the front of the door.

Step 3: The door frame and lens assembly will swing down

allowing access to the bulb.

Step 4: Using gloves or soft cloth, press the old bulb to one side

of the spring loaded socket as indicated on the metal
reflector. Remove opposite end of bulb from the other
side of the socket. Remove the new bulb from its package
making sure not to touch bulb with bare hands. Reverse this proce­dure to install a new replacement bulb (Figure J).

Step 5: Replace the door frame and lens assembly and secure it using a

phillips screwdriver.

Make sure the light fixture is in the OFF position and cool. Loosen
the knob located on the side of the light fixture housing. Using the
tab handle on the light fixture, tilt to desired position then retighten
knobs (Figure K). There is a stop that restricts the downward and
inward movement of the fixture for safety reasons. To prevent over­heating and risk of burns or fire, do not aim the fixture down at an
angle of more than 10 degrees from horizontal.
