Lightforce HANDHELD SEARCHLIGHTS SL Variable User Manual
Instruction data, Fig.2 fig.1
1. DO NOT leave light connected to a power source when not in use.
2. DO NOT place light face down on ANY surface. If the light is switched on the intense heat generated may ignite the surface
and cause a meltdown of the lamp body.
3. Ensure all electrical connectors are secure - loose connections will generate excessive heat, damage wiring and cause
electrical failure.
4. The outer lens should be washed clean with copious amounts of water and a clean sponge. Wiping it with a dry rag will
scratch the lens, especially if the surface is dusty. NEVER clean the light with cleaning fluid or solvent.
5. DO NOT attempt to clean the inside of the light or touch the inside lens and reflector.
6. LIGHTFORCE lights are not designed to be used for long periods of time in a stationary position with minimal airflow, failure to
comply will void warranty. Contact LIGHTFORCE direct to discuss alternative options such as reducing globe wattage.
7. GLOBE REPLACEMENT: The Xenophot® globe gives approximately 10% greater efficiency than any other halogen globe of
similar wattage. A number of optional globe strengths are available upon request. For removal, simply:
a) Rotate the reflector housing anti-clockwise to disengage it.
b) Remove old globe by gripping firmly and pulling out in the long axis direction of the globe.
i) DO NOT TOUCH NEW GLOBE WITH FINGERS, use a tissue or plastic sleeve. Prior to inserting a new globe, scrape the
globe legs with an abrasive surface (sandpaper or knife edge) to ensure positive contact with the globe holder contacts.
ii) Position the globe legs firmly into the fixed contacts of the globe holder, applying a firm pressure towards the rear. AVOID
jerking or twisting movements. NOTE: Globe can only be moved to the left and right NOT up and down.
iii) Mere placement of the globe into the globe holder is often not sufficient to give a properly fine-tuned beam. The operator
can overcome this by aligning the split line along the top of the rotation locking NIB and the split line on the end of the
handle with the centre of the globe filament. (see Fig.1)
iv) All other globes should be seated against the globe holder with little or no air gap.
v) Maximum globe wattage recommendation:
140 LANCE:
12V 75W
170 STRIKER:
12V 100W
240 BLITZ:
12V 100W
Note: USING GREATER WATTAGE WILL VOID WARRANTY
8. FOCUSING MECHANISM: The patented focus mechanism allows precise adjustment of the beam to various concentration
patterns as desired. Simply rotate the reflector and select the desired SPOT.
