IMPORTANT WARNINGS

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

Night hunting with articial light may be prohibited or restricted in your state. Please check your state’s
game laws for clarication.

CAUTION: The TLR-1 HL®, TLR-2 HL®, TLR-2 HL® G and TLR-1 HPL® 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 ashlight 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 ashlight. While this heating may trigger the drop reex 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 rearm under any circumstance may be dangerous. SERIOUS INJURY OR EVEN DEATH may

result without proper training in the safe handling of rearms. Proper training should be obtained from an
accredited rearms safety program conducted by competent, qualied instructors in the military, police
academies or National Rie Association afliated instruction programs.

• Read your rearm’s manual before attaching your gun mounted light.

• Never point a rearm at something you are not willing to destroy.

• Streamlight recommends that the TLR should only be activated with the non-trigger hand while employ-

ing a two-hand grip on the rearm and with the trigger nger 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 rearm before using the

weapon in a tactical situation.

BEFORE ATTACHING, INSPECTING OR SERVICING A FIREARM-MOUNTED TLR

1. Engage the safety on the rearm if applicable.

2. Remove the magazine from the rearm 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.

Rail Keys

Four polymer rail keys (included) allow the TLR to be attached to a variety of rearms: GL - Glock or
“universal” rails, SW - TSW & 99, Beretta - 90two, Sig – P320, 1913 - Mil Std-1913 (Picatinny).

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

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.

Hex Nut Cavity

Mounting/Removal Procedure
MAKE SURE THAT THE FIREARM IS UNLOADED AND THE BREECH IS OPEN. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT
SAFETY MEASURES BE EMPLOYED AT ALL TIMES WHILE HANDLING THE FIREARM.

1. The TLR is designed to be quickly attached or detached from the side of the weapon or accessory rail.

2. Loosen the rail clamp tension bolt.

3. Angle the TLR, placing the xed portion of the rail clamp against the accessory rail and align
the rail key with the appropriate cross groove in the accessory rail.

4. Depress the tension bolt to open the rail clamp, rotate the TLR into place and
release the pressure on the tension bolt to “snap” the light in place.

5. Check for t and tighten tension bolt until the TLR is securely attached to the rearm.
A coin should be used to obtain sufcient tightness.

Switch Operation

(TLR-2® Shown)

The TLR features a paddle switch providing momentary or constant activation.
The TLR-2® series has an additional mode selection switch located on the rear of the laser housing.

Strobe Operation

The TLR-1®s, TLR-2®s, TLR-1 HPL®, TLR-1 HL®, TLR-2 HL®, TLR-2® G and TLR-2 HL® 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 HPL®, TLR-1 HL®, TLR-2 HL®, TLR-2® G and TLR-2 HL® 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.
Strobe should be disabled.

Green Laser Operating Temperature Range

The green laser used in the TLR-2® G and TLR-2 HL® G employs the latest direct drive technology and
is not sensitive to temperature. The TLR-2® G and TLR-2 HL® G green laser will operate over the full
temperature range of the product from -40°F to 120°F.

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 articial podría estar prohibida o limitada en su zona geográca. Compruebe las
leyes de caza de su zona para aclarar dicho punto.

PRECAUCIÓN: La linternas TLR-1 HL®, TLR-2 HL®, TLR-2 HL® G y TLR-1 HPL® proporcionan un

haz potente. Cuando funciona durante un periodo 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 producido durante el funcionamiento consiste en disminuir de manera SIGNIFICATIVA
la potencia o aumentar el tamaño de la linterna. Si bien este calor podría provocar el reejo de dejarla
caer, si se recoge una linterna caliente desatendida, la temperatura no presenta un 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 supondrá 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 cualicados
en el ejército, en academias de policía o en programas de formación aliados a la Asociación Nacional
del Rie (National Rie 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.
