8. Do not touch the bulb at any time.
Use a soft cloth. Oil from skin may
damage bulb.
17. People with pacemakers should
consult their physician(s) before use.
Electromagnetic fields in close prox-
imity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemak-
er failure. In addition, people with
pacemakers should:
9. Do not operate the Light with a miss-
ing or damaged housing (16), lens
(22), or grid (25). (See assembly
diagram.)
• Avoid operating alone.
10. Risk of electric shock. Do not use
with extension cord near water or
where water may accumulate. Keep
lamp at least 16 feet (5m) from pools
and spas. Keep plugs and recep-
tacles dry. For use only on GFCI-
protected circuits. Suitable for wet
location use.
• Properly maintain and inspect to
avoid electrical shock.
• Any power cord must be properly
grounded. Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) should also be
implemented – it prevents sustained
electrical shock.
18. WARNING: Handling the cord on
this product will expose you to lead,
a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer, and birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
11. Maintain labels and nameplates on
the Light. These carry important
safety information. If unreadable or
missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools
for a replacement.
12. Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare
to begin work before turning on the
Light.
(California Health & Safety Code §
25249.5, et seq.)
19. The warnings, precautions, and in-
structions discussed in this instruction
manual cannot cover all possible con-
ditions and situations that may occur.
It must be understood by the operator
that common sense and caution are
factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the
operator.
13. Allow the unit to cool down before
changing bulbs or storing it.
14. This product is not intended for use
in a residence or to be mounted in a
cabinet. This product is not suitable
for recessed installation in ceilings or
on buildings. This product can cause
a fire.
general safety rules
15. Do not leave the Light unattended
when it is plugged into an electrical
outlet. Turn off the Light, and unplug
it from its electrical outlet before leav-
ing.
1. work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-
dents.
16. This product is not a toy. Keep it out
of reach of children.
b. Do not operate Lights in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the pres-
ence of flammable liquids, gases or

dust. Halogen Lights create heat
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for ap-
propriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Keep children and bystanders
away while operating. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose con-
trol.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position be-
fore plugging in. Plugging in Lights
that have the switch on invites ac-
cidents.
2. electrical safety
a. Light plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with
grounded Lights. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
d. Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the Light in
unexpected situations.
b. Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
e. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from mov-
ing parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or
long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
c. do not abuse the cord. never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the light. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
4. light use and care
a. Do not use the Light if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any Light
that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
d. When operating a Light outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
b. disconnect the plug from the
power source before making any
adjustments or storing lights.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the
Light accidentally.
3. personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when op-
erating a Light. Do not use a Light
while you are tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while op-
erating Lights may result in serious
personal injury.
c. Maintain Lights. Check for breakage
of parts and any other condition that
may affect the Light’s operation. If
damaged, have the Light repaired
before use.
d. Use the Light, in accordance with
these instructions and in the man-
ner intended for the particular type
of Light, taking into account the
working conditions and the work
b. use safety equipment. always

to be performed. Use of the Light
for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
grounded tools: tools with three
prong plugs
5. service
a. Have your Light serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only iden-
tical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the Light is
maintained.

saVe these
instructions.
1. Tools marked with “Grounding Re-
quired” have a three wire cord and
three prong grounding plug. The
plug must be connected to a properly
grounded outlet. If the tool should
electrically malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity
away from the user, reducing the risk
of electric shock. (see 3-prong plug
and outlet.)

wire connection:
Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. do not
modify the power cord plug
provided with the tool. never
remove the grounding prong
from the plug. do not use the
tool if the power cord or plug
is damaged. if damaged, have
it repaired by a service facility
before use. if the plug will not
fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
2. The grounding prong in the plug is
connected through the green wire in-
side the cord to the grounding system
in the tool. The green wire in the cord
must be the only wire connected to
the tool’s grounding system and must
never be attached to an electrically
“live” terminal. (see 3-prong plug
and outlet.)
3. The tool must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet, properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all
codes and ordinances. The plug and
outlet should look like those in the
preceding illustration. (see 3-prong
plug and outlet.)
