Ensure the light is connected to an appropriate electrical on/off switch.
1.1.2. the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances
responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and the safety of the
appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified
electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the
power supply. see 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. above and use a Portable Appliance tester (PAt).

WARNiNg! disconnect light from the power supply before changing accessories, servicing
or performing any maintenance.
Maintain the light in good condition. repairs must only be undertaken by a qualified electrician
(use an authorised service agent).
replace or repair damaged parts. use recommended parts only, unauthorised parts may be
dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Keep a minimum distance of 1 metre from the front of light to the surface which is to be illuminated. floodlights give off intense heat.
Locate the light in an adequate area for its function, keep area clean and tidy and free from unrelated materials.
If you use an extension lead the cable must be fully unwound from the drum.
the light is weather proof and may be used out doors. Ensure any extensions and plugs are weatherproof.
Allow power cables to run down the length of the light stand to the floor.
do Not allow power cables to hang from lights above floor level.
If the light uses a clamp to support it during use, ensure that the object to which you clamp it is strong enough.
dANgER! do Not direct the light into a person’s eyes. All models have a very intense light output which, if incorrectly used,
could cause eye damage.
do Not touch the light when operating. Allow to cool before touching, light operates at high temperature.
do Not handle halogen bulbs as the natural oil from your fingers will shorten the bulb life. Handle only with a soft dry cloth.
do Not use the light without the front glass shield. Avoid touching the glass shield as handling may reduce its serviceable life and cause
the glass to crack.
do Not use the light without the weather seals intact.
do Not use the light near flammable, combustible or explosive liquids, solids, gases or equipment.
When not in use, switch off the light and disconnect from the power supply. Ensure that the unit is cool and dry and then store in a safe,
dry, childproof area.
