IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION
In this manual, on the labeling,
and all other information
provided with this product:
This is the safety alert
symbol. It is used to alert
you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all
safety messages that
follow this symbol to avoid
possible injury or death.
General Safety Rules
WARNING Read all safety
warnings and instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric
shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and
instructions for future
reference.
Work area safety1.
Keep work area clean and well a.
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
Do not operate the Light in explo-b.
sive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of ammable liquids,
gases or dust. The Light gener-
ates heat sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
Electrical safety2.
The Light’s plug must match the a.
outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with the Light. Unmodi-
ed plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with ground-b.
ed surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
Do not expose the Light to rain c.
or wet conditions. Water entering
the Light will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never d.
use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the Light. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
For indoor use only. e. Do not use
this product outside or in wet loca-
tions.
Personal safety3.
Use personal protective equip-a.
ment. Wear ANSI-approved eye
protection during assembly.
Do not overreach. Keep proper b.
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the
Light in unexpected situations.
Light use and care4.
Maintain the Light. Check for a.
breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the
Light’s operation. If damaged,
have it repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained items.
nia Health & Safety Code § 25249.5,
et seq.)
Service5.
Have the Light serviced by a a.
qualied repair person using
only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of
the Light is maintained.
Light Safety Warnings
Maintain labels and nameplates on 1.
the Light. These carry important
safety information. If unreadable or
missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools
for a replacement.
Do not leave the Light unattended 2.
when it is plugged into an electrical
outlet. Turn off the Light, and unplug
it from its electrical outlet before leaving.
This product is not a toy. Keep it out 3.
of reach of children.
People with pacemakers should 4.
consult their physician(s) before use.
Electromagnetic elds in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker
failure. In addition, people with pacemakers should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Properly maintain and inspect to
avoid electrical shock.
• Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) should also be
implemented – it prevents sustained
electrical shock.
The warnings, precautions, and 6.
instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible
conditions and situations that may
occur. It must be understood by the
operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built
into this product, but must be supplied
by the operator.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS.
GROUNDING
Improperly
connecting the
grounding wire can result in
electric shock.
Check with a qualied
electrician if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not
modify the power cord plug
provided with the tool. Never
remove the grounding prong
from the plug. Do not use the
tool if the power cord or plug
is damaged. If damaged, have
it repaired by a service facility
before use. If the plug will not
t the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualied
electrician.
WARNING: Handling the cord on 5.
this product will expose you to lead,
a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer, and birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling. (Califor-

Grounded Tools:
Tools with Three Prong Plugs
1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and
three prong grounding plug. The
plug must be connected to a properly
grounded outlet. If the tool should
electrically malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a low resistance
path to carry electricity away from
the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See 3-Prong Plug and
Outlet.)
The grounding prong in the plug is 2.
connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system
in the tool. The green wire in the cord
must be the only wire connected to
the tool’s grounding system and must
never be attached to an electrically
“live” terminal. (See 3-Prong Plug
and Outlet.)
The tool must be plugged into an 3.
appropriate outlet, properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all
codes and ordinances. The plug and
outlet should look like those in the
preceding illustration. (See 3-Prong
Plug and Outlet.)
Double Insulated Tools:
Tools with Two Prong Plugs
1. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do
not require grounding. They have
a special double insulation system
which satises OSHA requirements
and complies with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories,
Inc., the Canadian Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code.
(See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)
Double insulated tools may be used 2.
in either of the 120 volt outlets shown
in the preceding illustration. (See
Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)
Extension Cords
Grounded1. tools require a three wire
extension cord. Double Insulated
tools can use either a two or three
wire extension cord.
As the distance from the supply outlet 2.
increases, you must use a heavier
gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized
wire causes a serious drop in voltage,
resulting in loss of power and possible
tool damage. (See Table A.)
The smaller the gauge number of the 3.
wire, the greater the capacity of the
cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord
SKU 66308 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 4
Page 5
can carry a higher current than a 16
gauge cord. (See Table A.)
Symbology
When using more than one exten-4.
sion cord to make up the total length,
make sure each cord contains at least
the minimum wire size required. (See
Table A.)
If you are using one extension cord 5.
for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to
determine the required minimum cord
size. (See Table A.)
If you are using an extension cord 6.
outdoors, make sure it is marked with
the sufx “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to
indicate it is acceptable for outdoor
use.
Make sure the extension cord is 7.
properly wired and in good electrical
condition. Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by
a qualied electrician before using it.
Protect the extension cords from 8.
sharp objects, excessive heat, and
damp or wet areas.
