Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Working temperature. This worklight is design to be
use at normal room temperature. If use under 0°C
(32°F) the battery will discharge more fast. If use over
45°C (113°F) an automatic cut-off will turn the light
off until the temperature of the light head come down.
Depending if the work area is close without fresh air
draft or not, the cut-off temperature can be affected
(see features for more information).
FLEXLITE is design to be used in industrial
environment under rain, snow and dust. But
FLEXLITE product cannot be immerse in water. If the
working area is moist and dusty, some particles will
stick on the fan or heatsink and reduce the
performance. See maintenance section to remove any
dirt.
DANGER!
Never connect / disconnect or use an external power
supply or charger in hazardous area.
DANGER!
Never connect or disconnect the connector on the
lighthead or any extension cord when the power is on
or in hazardous area.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
A battery operated worklight with integral batteries or a
separate battery pack must be recharged only with the
specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be
suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery.
Use charger only with products listed (refer to
FEATURES on page 5).
SERVICE
Worklight service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a worklight, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may
create a risk of shock or injury
.
STORAGE TEMPERATURE
Store worklight at room temperature between 4 and 27°C (40
and 80°F) for best results.
When transporting or temporarily storing in a vehicle,
temperature range should be greater than -30°C (-22°F) but
no more than 66°C (151°F).
Storing worklight at temperatures greater than 76°C
(169°F) for extended periods of time (more than 2 hours)
may cause damage to worklight and possible fire or
explosion.
DANGER!
Never store FLEXLITE (battery models) under
sunshine.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Know your worklight. Read operator’s manual carefully.
Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the
specific potential hazards related to this worklight.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire,
or serious injury.
Lens and housing become hot during use:
During or immediately after use, don’t lay worklight flat
on lens surface or place lens area in contact with a plastic
or fabric covered surface.
Handle worklight with care around any flammable surface.
Do not use or permit use of worklight in bed or sleeping
bags. This worklight lens can melt fabric and a burn injury
could result.
Use only the charger recommended for use with your
worklight. Do not substitute any other charger. Use of
another charger could cause batteries to explode causing
possible serious injury.
Do not charge battery pack in a damp or wet location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electrical shock.
Your battery worklight should be charged in a location
where the temperature is more than 10°C (50°F) but less
than 37°C (99°F).
Do not disassemble your worklight.
Do not permit children to use worklight unsupervised. It
is not a toy. The temperature of the light head will become
hot after being on for only a short period of time. This hot
temperature can cause burn injury if touched and can create
sufficient heat to melt some fabrics.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common
sense. Do not rush.
2
If wrapped or in contact with fabrics, the worklight lens
can produce sufficient heat to melt some fabrics. To avoid
serious personal injury, never allow the worklight lens to
come in contact with anything.
Check damaged parts. Before further use of this worklight,
WARNING!
MAGNETIC HAZARDS
Strong magnetic forces pose a potential hazard to people who wear heart implant devices and they can destroy magnetic media
data files (such as computer hard drives). Visually warning people of the existence of strong magnetic fields is necessary when
such fields are generated by equipment.
WARNING!
LED LIGHT
Do not stare into the beam or view directly with or without optical instruments.
WARNING!
This light system needs a constant air flow to cool down, NEVER leave the light turned on when not in motion;
otherwise the light will becomes hot and can cause injury, fire or damages. Do not project the light towards traffic
road, another person or any vehicle to prevent blindness. Doing so, may result in serious injuries or death.
SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER

INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
personal injury.
Before using battery charger, read all instructions
and cautionary markings in this manual, on battery
charger and product using battery to prevent misuse of
the products and possible injury or damage.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
the charger and battery; charge only batteries as
specifically designated on your charger. Other
types of batteries may burst, causing personal
injury or damage.
Do not use charger outdoors or expose to wet or damp
conditions. Water entering charger will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
another manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
Do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the cord to carry
the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather than the plug
when disconnecting from receptacle. Damage to the cord or
charger could occur and create an electric shock hazard.
Replace damaged cords immediately.
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on,
tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or moving
parts or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. This will
reduce the risk of accidental falls, which could cause injury,
and damage to the cord, which could result in electric shock.
Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage to
