2. OPERATION  
Two switches (Spotlight and Area Light) control On/Off operation of both lights. The SpotLight  
can be continuously lit for up to 25 minutes on a full battery charge. The Area Light can be lit for  
up to 15 hours on a full battery charge. Figure 1 shows locations of the handle, handle release  
button and flat area stand. Figure 2 rear view, shows Spotlight/Off/Area light switch and  
area light.  
The handle rotates ninety degrees and locks in two different positions. The handle is released  
from either locked position by pressing on the Handle Lock Button (located near two handle  
screws) and rotating the handle to the new position. When the handle is close to the body of  
the light (folded) the spotlight is carried with the weight of the unit below the handle. When the  
handle is rotated to be perpendicular to the body of the unit, the unit is carried pistol style with  
the units weight on top. It is your choice of operating positions, depending on your needs  
and comfort.

4. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE  
All batteries lose charge over time, especially when they are warm. AC recharge is recom-  
mended every two months, when not in frequent use. Use the AC recharger and charge for the  
recommended time. If the unit gets dirty, gently clean the outer surfaces of the spotlight unit with  
a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution of water and detergent.  
5. PARTS REPLACEMENT  
Three parts are replaceable by users. The quartz halogen bulb and sealed lead acid battery are  
proprietary and are available through HUSKY. A substitute 6 volt H3 55 watt bulb may be used  
instead of a HUSKY bulb. These can also be purchased from popular automotive parts suppliers  
nationwide. The DC charging adapter fuse is replaceable. Contact HUSKYs Technical Support De-  
partment for replacement parts and any additional information that you may need. They may be  
reached toll free (800) 916-7004.  
DC PLUG FUSE REPLACEMENT  
The fuse in the DC plug protects the charging circuit of the DC Recharge Adapter. This fuse may  
blow if the spotlight is operated when the DC Recharge Adapter is powered and the DC cord is  
connected to the recharge port. During DC recharge, if there is no slight warming of the DC  
plug, you should suspect that 6 volts DC is not powering the plug or the fuse is opened.  
To replace the fuse:  
1. Unscrew the end cap of the DC Plug. (counterclockwise)  
2. Remove spring center contact and fuse.  
3. Check fuse with a continuity checker.  
4. If blown, locate replacement fuse with same type and rating.  
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 Charger Adapter.

REPLACING THE BATTERY PACK  
The sealed lead acid battery has a life of several years, if recharged promptly after each use.  
When a fully charged battery only provides about ten minutes or less of spotlight operation, it  
should be replaced with a new one. To replace the battery, you will need a narrow shaft Phillips  
type screwdriver and a replacement battery. The battery pack can be replaced by doing the  
following:  
1. Complete the bulb replacement steps through step 7 (above) to remove the reflector  
assembly.  
2. Remove the Phillips screws (clockwise) that fasten the two halves of the housing body.  
(see figure 1 for locations.)  
3. Separate the two body halves.  
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW BARE WIRES OR CONNECTORS TO CONTACT EACH OTHER;  
DANGEROUS SPARKING CAN OCCUR  
4. Note polarity of battery. Note which color wire is on which terminal.  
5. Disconnect the wires from the battery and set the battery aside.  
6. Connect the replacement battery, making sure the correct color wires are on the new  
battery terminals. Make sure POS (+) is red and NEG (-) is black.  
CAUTION: Incorrectly connected wires will allow the spotlight to operate normally but when  
recharge adapters are connected, there will be damage to the battery and recharge  
adapters. Double check battery polarity before reassembly!
