Electrical Safety  
Height:  
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the  
plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed  
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching  
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.  
Charge Time:  
ACApprox 12–15 hours  
(after first use)  
DCApprox 12 - 15 hours  
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces  
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There  
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed  
or grounded.

3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.  
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric  
shock.  
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,  
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away  
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or  
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.  
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an outdoor  
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord  
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety  
Power Tool Use and Care  
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common  
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a  
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of  
drugs, alcohol, or medication. Amoment of inattention while  
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.  
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for  
your application. The correct power tool will do the job better  
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.  
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it  
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the  
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.  
2. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety  
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard  
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will  
reduce personal injuries.  
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source before  
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or  
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures  
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.  
3. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-  
position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your  
finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the  
switch on invites accidents.  
4. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do  
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these  
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are  
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the  
tool on. Awrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating  
part of the power tool may result in personal injury.  
5. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of  
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that  
may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the  
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused  
by poorly maintained power tools.  
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at  
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in  
unexpected situations.  
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.  
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.  
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving  
parts.  
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained  
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind  
and are easier to control.  
7. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in  
accordance with these instructions and in the manner  
intended for the particular type of power tool, taking  
into account the working conditions and the work to be  
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different  
from intended could result in a hazardous situation.  
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust  
extraction and collection facilities ensure that these are  
connected and properly used. Use of these devices can  
reduce dust-related hazards.  
Service  
1. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair  
personnel using only identical replacement parts. This  
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

charge with suppliedAC and DC charging adapters.  
ChargingAdapters for this unit supply 12 volts DC.  
The spotlight is not intended for any use other than charging  
the exact type of rechargeable battery pack as supplied  
with the charger. Any other use may result in the risk of fire,  
electric shock or electrocution.

service centre when service or repair is required. Incorrect  
re-assembly may result in the risk of fire, electric shock or  
electrocution.  
11. Keep charging adapter cords away from sharp edges.  
12. Position charge adapter cords so that they do not become  
entangled or become a safety hazard.  
13. Do not shine spotlight in eyes.  
14. Do not operate while recharging.

LED indicators  
Replacing the spotlight  
The spotlight has 3 LED indicators (6) which indicates battery  
level when in operation and status  
whilst charging.  
To replace the H3 type 6V bulb you will need a small Phillips  
type screwdriver and a replacement bulb (GMC Part VEC117-  
AUBUL).  
First red LED indicates battery is in  
a low level of charge.  
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  
Second red LED indicates battery is  
partially charged.  
1. Disconnect the unit from charging adapter.  
Green LED indicates battery is fully  
charged.  
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).  
To turn the LED on and off, depress  
the LED Indicator Switch (8)  
3. Using the screwdriver, remove (counter-clockwise) the two  
screws and set them aside (fig. D).  
Using the spotlight  
The Spotlight has a digital electronic control dimmer with three  
levels of brightness.  
4. Lift off the retaining ring, glass lens and rubber “O” ring and set  
them aside (fig. E & F).  
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.

Replacing the DC fuse plug  
Maintenance  
Store the spotlight, instruction manual and where necessary the  
accessories in the original packaging.  
In this way you will always have all the information and parts  
ready to hand.  
The fuse in the DC plug (10) protects the charging circuit of the  
DC RechargeAdapter. If theAC recharger operates but the DC  
charging adapter does not, then the fuse may be opened. To  
replace the fuse:  
Do not throw used batteries into fire or water. There is a danger  
of explosion! Please hand in non-working or used batteries, or  
tools with built-in batteries, to the environmentally-safe disposal  
unit at a municipal waste-disposal centre, or to your dealer.  
1. Unscrew the end cap of the  
DC Plug.  
2. Remove spring center contact  
and fuse.  
Important. All batteries lose charge over time, especially when  
they are warm. AC recharge is recommended every two months,  
when not in frequent use. Use theAC recharger and charge for  
the recommended time.  
3. Check fuse with a continuity  
checker.  
1
4. If blown, locate replacement  
fuse with same type and rating  
(0.5A)  
If the unit has dirt on it, gently clean the outer surfaces of the  
spotlight unit with a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution  
of water and detergent. Periodically inspect the condition  
of recharge adapters, connectors, and wires. Replace any  
components that may have become worn or broken.  
5. Replace the fuse, spring,  
contact and end cap.  
6. Screw end cap clockwise  
until it is finger tight.  
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN  
7. Check for proper operation of  
DC ChargerAdapter.
