LED

The spotlight has 3 LED indicators

(4) which indicates battery level

when in operation and status

whilst charging.
Red LED indicates battery is in a

low level of charge.
Amber LED indicates battery is

partially charged.
Green LED indicates battery is fully charged.
There is also an area light (GMC Part VEC117AU-AREA)

which illuminates the work area, improving vision which

can continuously operate for approx 6 hours on a fully

charged battery.
To turn the LED and area light on and off, depress the light

switch (2)

Using the Spotlight

The Spotlight has a digital

electronic control dimmer with

three levels of brightness.
Depressing the trigger switch

(1) advances the brightness of

the spotlight to dim, brighter,

brightest (fig. A). This allows the

user to set the desired brightness

of the light. Depressing trigger at

one second intervals to allow the

internal circuits to set to the next

level. Lower brightness operation

extends the run time.
The Trigger Switch may be locked

in the ON position (fig. B) to

provide continuous light at any

level without continuously depressing the Trigger Switch.
To lock trigger switch slide trigger switch lock upwards.

This can be done in the on or off position. To release lock,

slide lock downwards.

The spotlight’s circuitry will automatically dim the light

when the battery’s power is reducing. This preserves the run

time of the spotlight.
The circuit also prevents deep discharge of the battery even

if the light turns off from battery discharge. Recharge as

soon as possible, as allowing a discharged battery to remain

so will reduce the battery life.

Replacing the Spotlight

To replace the H3 type 6V bulb

you will need a small Phillips type

screwdriver and a replacement

bulb (GMC Part VEC117-AUBUL).
Bulb life may be shortened by

installing a bulb with dirt or

fingerprints on it. The bulb

can be wiped clean with a

cloth moistened with alcohol.

During bulb installation, avoid

touching the glass part of

the bulb
1. Disconnect the unit from

any charging adapters.

2. Pull backward the rubber

bezel away from the front of

the spotlight to reveal two

small Phillips screws in the

Retaining Ring (fig. C).

3. Using the screwdriver, remove

(counter-clockwise) the two

screws and set them aside

(fig. D).

4. Lift off the retaining ring,

glass lens and rubber “O”

ring and set them aside

(fig. E & F).
