Adjusting the pivot tube
The pivot tube allows the BarFlex™ to be tilted backward and forward to direct the illumination upward or
downward.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PRODUCT DAMAGE:
• Do not attempt to "force"the pivot tube beyond its maximum angle.
• The pivot tube was designed to tilt forward and backward only.
• The pivot tube was designed to be used when the unit is hanging or attached to a surface using its magnetic
base. Using it when the unit is placed on a level, non-metallic surface may cause the BarFlex™ to fall over and
sustain damage.
• NEVER attempt to rotate the light tube itself. Always use the pivot tube to adjust the area of illumination.
Using the carabineer hanging hook and magnetic base
The hanging hook and magnetic base allow you to position the BarFlex™ for convenient, hands-free operation. The
hanging hook rotates 360° to direct illumination as needed.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PRODUCT DAMAGE:
• When the hanging hook is in use or the light is attached using the magnetic base, do not shake the light.
• When light is hung by the hanging hook or attached using the magnetic base, do not shake the light or object
that it is hanging from or attached to. Do not hang the light from or attach the light to any electrical wires or
anything that it is not secure.
• Only use the hanging hook for hanging the BarFlex™. The hanging hook is not intended to support additional
weight. Do not attach or hang anything additional to the light or risk of breakage may occur.

cloth moistened with a mild solution of water and detergent.
