EOTech IFL Integrated Fore-End Light - Manual

SAFETY SUMMARY
BATTERIES
The Integrated Forend Light is powered by two 3V lithium CR123A batteries.
In addition to guidelines established by the battery manufacturer, the
following safety precautions apply when handling lithium batteries:
• Do not short circuit, puncture, incinerate, or disassemble.
• Do not attempt to recharge.
• Prior to use, inspect the batteries for any cracks, dents, leakage or
bulging. Never install a defective battery in the Integrated Forend Light.
WARNING
Lithium batteries can explode or cause burns if disassembled, shorted,
recharged, exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures (above 100°C or
212°F). Do not place loose batteries in a pocket or other container containing
metal objects. Do not store batteries with hazardous or combustible
materials. Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
WARNING
Use of off-brand batteries poses a risk of fire or explosion. Ensure that only
3V lithium batteries produced by well-known battery manufacturers such as
Duracell®, Rayovac®, or Panasonic® are installed in the Integrated Forend
Light. These batteries are specifically designed for use in high performance,
high-drain devices, and contain built-in fault and heat protection features.
CAUTION
Do not ship or store the Integrated Forend Light with the batteries installed.
WEAPONS SAFETY
The Integrated Forend Light is designed to be used with destructive weapon
systems. Improper operation or misuse of the Integrated Forend Light with
these weapon systems could lead to personal injury or death of either the
operator or other persons within weapons range. Safe firearms handling
procedures must be practiced at all times.
WARNING
The Integrated Forend Light is designed to produce sufficient light to safely
illuminate and identify a potential target without the need to point the
Integrated Forend Light and the host weapon directly at an individual. The
light from the Integrated Forend Light can safely be directed at a wall, floor,
or ceiling and “bounced” onto a darkened silhouette or dark area.
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
WARNING
Be sure the weapon is CLEAR and SAFE before performing the maintenance
functions described below.
Integrated Forend Light Housing. Inspect the housing for any signs of
damage including cracks, missing parts, and any other visible defects. Rinse
with water or mild soap and water and wipe clean with a soft cloth. Clean
around the pressure pads and rotary switch with a cotton swab.
Battery Compartment. Inspect the battery compartment for dirt, dust and
corrosion. Dirt or debris that cannot be shaken loose from the battery
compartment may be removed using a clean cloth or cotton swab.
Periodically inspect the o-ring on the outside of the battery compartment and
replace if it becomes cut, nicked, or dried out.
Battery Cap. Inspect the battery cap for dirt, sand and grime. Clean
thoroughly by rinsing with water and wiping with a cotton swab.
Optical Surfaces. Inspect the LED illuminator lens for dirt, dust, and grime.
Remove any large particles or loose dirt using air or a soft cloth. Fine cleaning
should be performed using lens tissue and lens cleaning solution. Clean
water, alcohol, or general purpose window cleaner may be used to remove
stubborn stains. Avoid using excessive force as this may scratch the lens.
BATTERY HANDLING
Battery Inspection. Before installation, inspect the batteries for any cracks,
dents, leakage or bulging. Never install a defective battery in the Integrated
Forend Light.
WARNING
Be sure the weapon is CLEAR and SAFE before attempting to install, remove,
or replace the batteries.
CAUTION
Do not ship or store the Integrated Forend Light with the batteries installed.
Battery Installation. Access the battery compartment by turning the battery
cap counterclockwise. Install two 3V CR123A lithium batteries with the
positive terminal facing in as shown in Figure 1. Proper battery orientation is
clearly marked on the Integrated Forend Light housing. Replace the battery
cap and turn clockwise to tighten.
