IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING: Use of light in “strobe” mode may cause seizure in persons with photosensitive epilepsy.

Night hunting with artificial light may be prohibited or restricted in your state. Please check your state’s game laws for clarification.

CAUTION: The TLR-1® HL™ and TLR-2® HL™ provide a powerful beam. When operated for a long time, it will get uncomfortably warm. This is NORMAL and is not a defect. Any LED flashlight of

similar size and performance will produce similar amounts of heat during operation. The only way to reduce operating heat is to SIGNIFICANTLY lower the output, or increase the size of the flashlight. While this heating may trigger the drop reflex if an unattended hot light is picked up, the temperature does not present

a burn hazard. When used tactically for short periods of time to clear a room, check for intruders, etc., heating will not be a problem.

FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS WHEN HANDLING A FIREARM OR THE TLR CAN BE DANGEROUS AND CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY, DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, OR DEATH.

Use of a firearm under any circumstance may be dangerous. SERIOUS INJURY OR EVEN DEATH may result without proper training in the safe handling of firearms. Proper training should be obtained from an accredited firearms safety program conducted by competent, qualified instructors in the military, police academies or National Rifle Association affiliated instruction programs.

Read your firearm’s manual before attaching your gun mounted light.

Never point a firearm at something you are not willing to destroy.

Streamlight recommends that the TLR should only be activated with the non-trigger hand while employing a two-hand grip on the firearm and with the trigger finger outside the trigger guard when possible. Failure to do so could result in an accidental discharge and serious injury, damage to property, or death.

Thoroughly practice (employing safe training conditions) with the TLR and firearm before using the weapon in a tactical situation.

BEFORE ATTACHING, INSPECTING OR SERVICING A FIREARM-MOUNTED TLR

1.Engage the safety on the firearm if applicable.

2.Remove the magazine from the firearm if applicable.

3.Open the action and inspect the chamber to be sure it is empty.

IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT SAFETY MEASURES BE EMPLOYED AT ALL TIMES WHILE

HANDLING THE FIREARM.

1913

TSW/99

90two

Each rail key is stamped for easy identification and the keys share a common key screw and hex nut. Each key has a hex nut cavity in the base.

Hex Nut Cavity

1. Select the appropriate key and insert a hex nut into the cavity in the base of the key. Note: Adjust the hex nut so no portion protrudes from the key.

2.Hold the rail key (hex nut side up) and the TLR (key pocket side down) and align the two.

3.Insert the key into the TLR key pocket and use a 7/64” hex wrench to secure it with the key screw.

NOTE: A key MUST be used or the TLR will slide off the front of the rail under recoil.

Strobe Operation

The TLR-1®s, TLR-2®s,TLR-1®s HP, TLR-1® HL™, TLR-2® HL™ and TLR-2® G feature a Strobe Mode that can be activated by the paddle switch. Within 0.4 seconds, press the paddle switch into the momentary position, release and immediately re-press and hold for strobe.

Strobe Enable/Disable

The TLR-1®s, TLR-2®s,TLR-1®s HP, TLR-1® HL™, TLR-2® HL™ and TLR-2® G ship from the factory with the strobe mode enabled.

The light can be reprogrammed to disable strobe by tapping the momentary paddle switch very rapidly ten times and holding it down on the tenth time. Hold until the light turns off (about one second) which indicates reprogramming was successful. Repeat the procedure above to re-enable the strobe mode.

NOTE: Activation of the strobe function is NOT recommended with the remote switch.

Green Laser Operating Temperature Range

Green lasers are temperature sensitive. The green laser used in the TLR-2® G will operate within a temperature range of 32°F to 104°F. At lower temperatures, the laser output may be delayed until the TLR-2®

G warms up. At higher temperatures, the laser will appear less intense. At excessive temperatures, the laser will turn off to protect itself from damage. Operating the TLR-2® G in Laser/LED mode will contribute to increased laser temperature.

TLR-2® Models Laser Sight Zeroing

For a laser mounted below or to the side of the bore, there is only one distance where the bullet path will coincide with the laser sight line. This point is the “zero range.” Laser adjustment and the muzzle velocity of the bullet determine where this point occurs. The user must decide how high above or below the sight line the bullet can be allowed to strike and adjust the sight accordingly. At distances less than the zero range the bullet will be above the sight line. Beyond the zero range the bullet will be below the sight line. If mounted to the side, the bullet will also deviate to the side of the laser line, as well as up and down.

In practice, a TLR-2® model on a handgun can be adjusted to keep the bullet strike within about 2” high and 2” low out to about 100 feet. There are two adjustment screws mounted in brass bushings located on the laser cartridge housing (for the TLR-2® G on the side body and housing). The windage adjustment is located on the left hand side of the laser cartridge. Turn the set screw clockwise to move the laser to

the left (POI right). Turn the set screw counter-clockwise to move the laser to the right (POI left). The elevation adjustment is located on the underside of the TLR-2® model laser cartridge. With the TLR-2® model pointed down range a clockwise turn of the adjustment screw will move the laser down (POI up). A counter-clockwise turn on the adjustment screw will move the laser up (POI down). Move the laser dot in the direction that the shots are hitting the target (example: If the bullets are striking low and right, move the laser dot down and right to coincide with the bullet strike).

NOTE: When making large adjustments there may be an interaction that causes the laser to move diagonally or bind. It may become necessary to rotate the opposing adjustment screw counterclockwise to allow the laser cartridge to move to the desired position.

Maintenance

The TLR rail clamp tensioning bolt requires an application of high quality gun oil to keep it rust free. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the glass LED lens and keep it free of dirt and grime. The laser aperture on the TLR-2® models can be cleaned with a Q-tip (or similar item) and mild detergent.

NOTE: Always avoid aggressive cleaning solutions as they may damage the TLR.

ADVERTENCIAS IMPORTANTES

ADVERTENCIA: El uso de la linterna en modo “estroboscópico” puede provocar ataques epilépticos a personas con epilepsia fotosensible.

La caza nocturna con luz artificial podría estar prohibida o limitada en su estado (o área). Compruebe las leyes de caza de su estado (área) para aclarar dicho punto.

PRECAUCIÓN: La linternas TLR-1® HL™ y TLR-2® HL™ proporcionan un potente haz. Cuando funciona durante un período prolongado, alcanzará una temperatura caliente que resulta incómoda.

Esto es NORMAL y no se trata de un defecto. Cualquier linterna LED de tamaño y rendimiento similares producirá cantidades similares de calor durante el funcionamiento. La única manera de reducir el calor de funcionamiento consiste en reducir SIGNIFICATIVAMENTE la potencia o aumentar el tamaño de la linterna. Si bien este calor podría provocar el reflejo de dejarla caer, si se recoge una linterna caliente desatendida, la temperatura no presenta riesgo de quemaduras. Cuando se utiliza tácticamente durante breves periodos de tiempo para despejar una habitación, comprobar la presencia de intrusos, etc., el calor no supondrán ningún problema.

NO LEER ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES DE FUNCIONAMIENTO Y ADVERTENCIAS, ASÍ COMO EL INCUMPLIMIENTO DE ÉSTAS AL MANIPULAR UN ARMA DE FUEGO O LA LINTERNA TLR PUEDE SER

PELIGROSO Y PUEDE PROVOCAR LESIONES GRAVES, DAÑOS A LA PROPIEDAD O LA MUERTE.

El uso de un arma de fuego bajo cualquier circunstancia puede ser peligroso. Pueden producirse LESIONES GRAVES E INCLUSO LA MUERTE si no se ha recibido la formación necesaria en el manejo seguro de armas de fuego. Debe recibirse formación adecuada a través de un programa de seguridad sobre armas de fuego acreditado impartido por instructores competentes cualificados en el ejército, en academias de policía o en programas de formación afiliados a la Asociación Nacional del Rifle (National Rifle Association).

Lea el manual de su arma de fuego antes de acoplar su linterna en la pistola.

No apunte nunca un arma de fuego a algo que no esté dispuesto a destruir.

Streamlight recomienda que la TLR sólo se active con la mano que no se utiliza para disparar mientras utiliza un agarre de dos manos en el arma de fuego con el dedo índice fuera del protector del gatillo cuando sea posible. De lo contrario, podría producirse la descarga accidental y graves lesiones, daño a la propiedad o la muerte.

Practique exhaustivamente (bajo condiciones de formación seguras) con la TLR y el arma de fuego antes de usar el arma en una situación táctica.

ANTES DE ACOPLAR, INSPECCIONAR O PRESTAR SERVICIO A UNA TLR INSTALADA EN UN ARMA DE FUEGO

1.Acople el seguro del arma de fuego, si corresponde.

2.Retire el cargador del arma de fuego, si corresponde.

3.Abra la acción e inspeccione la cámara para asegurarse de que está vacía.

DURANTE LA MANIPULACIÓN DEL ARMA DE FUEGO ES OBLIGATORIO EL USO DE MEDIDAS DE SEGURIDAD EN TODO MOMENTO.
