8.2 Getting started

In order to be able to use the torch in the Ex-area, you must first check that the outer housing head and body are screwed on completely. After this has been done, you can switch on the torch by turning the yellow twist ring slightly in a clockwise direction. The torch is supplied with factory-fitted batteries.

8.3 Battery replacement

When the brightness is no longer satisfactory, the batteries should be replaced. It is strongly recommended that all three batteries be replaced together. When replacing the batteries, only use approved battery types (see table of approved battery types in section 7. Technical data).

To replace the batteries, hold on to the housing head and the twist ring, and turn the body of the torch anticlockwise until it comes off. Take the used batteries out of the battery compartment, observing correct polarity and replace them with new ones.

After you insert the new batteries screw the body of the torch back on. Make sure that torch components are screwed together securely before switching the torch on.

Battery replacement

-Only use approved battery types. See table in section 7. Technical data.

-Always replace all of the batteries together.

-Make sure that the polarity of the inserted batteries is correct.

-Please ensure that all used batteries are properly disposed of in an environmental- ly friendly manner.

-After changing the batteries or the sealing rings always check to make sure that the sealing rings and threads are clean and in good condition.
