Keep the o-ring and sealing surfaces clean. DO NOT stretch the o-ring when cleaning. It is not
necessary to lubricate the o-ring. Never use spray lubricant because it will crack the plastic.
Place the clean o-ring on the inner recess of the front head assembly.
Do not dent or damage the front edge of the lite body as the o-ring seals against this surface.

• Make sure the on/off switch has been rotated left to the off position.
• Place the front lens face down on a flat surface. Check that the o-ring and sealing surfaces are
clean and undamaged; make sure the o-ring is positioned properly on the inner recess of the front.
• Place locking lever in the open position (pull out, flip up, and rotate lever).
• Align the handle on the body with the handle reference on the battery holder. Lower the body
over the batteries. Proper alignment of the body with the front is extremely important to avoid
possible damage to the internal components.
• To seal the light, simply reverse the opening sequence. Press down
slightly on the body and rotate the lever clockwise. Push the lever down
and slide the lever in to the locked position.

The large rotating switch with sliding lock is easily operated with one
hand. Unlock the switch by sliding the white-colored lock down. Rotate
the switch fully to the right to turn ON the light.
Rotate the switch to the left to turn the light OFF. To lock the switch,
slide the white lock upward towards the light body. Lock the switch when
the light is not in use. Never look into the face of the lite because of its
blinding intensity.

Accepts eight C-cell batteries, alkaline or ni-cad. Alkaline batteries
provide 14W initial intensity and 5.5 hours of high intensity light.
Consumer ni-cads reduce intensity and burn time.
• Note the polarity markings at the base of the battery holder assembly.
• Follow the polarity markings when installing two batteries in each
of the four columns. Make sure that both batteries in each column have
the same polarity direction.
• For best performance, we recommend Energizer® alkaline batteries.
