The TAC-460XL tactical flashlight comes with the tail cap switch already
attached. As such, the light can be used right out of the packaging as a
conventional tactical flashlight once the included CR-123 batteries and CR-
123 Battery Carrier are installed. This light may be converted back to this
configuration at any time.
STEPS NECESSARY TO ASSEMBLE THE NIGHTSTICK XTREME
LUMENS TACTICAL LONG GUN KIT
1. Remove the Tail Cap Switch (Figure 1-A) and the CR-123 Battery Carrier
(Figure 1-B). NOTE: Keep the Tail Cap Switch for future use if this light is to
ever be converted back to a conventional Tactical Flashlight.
2. Install the two included CR-123 Batteries (Figure 2-A) into the CR-123
Battery Carrier (Figure 2-B). The positive terminals on each battery should be
oriented in the direction of the arrow on the CR-123 Battery Carrier and then
inserted into the flashlight with the + end terminals pointing in the direction of
the flashlight's bezel (Figure 3-A).
3. Install the Remote Pressure Switch (Figure 3-B) and tighten into place.
4. Test the operation of the Remote Pressure Switch (Figure 3-C) and the
Side Switch (Figure 3-D). The Remote Pressure Switch provides Momentary
On/Off operation of the light only. The Side Switch provides Momentary On/
Off operation by pressing slightly on the button, or Constant-on by pressing
until the button clicks.
5. Decide where the Quad Lock Mount (Figure 4-A) is to be located on the
light. It is important that the mount remain clear of the Remote Pressure
Switch, otherwise accessing the batteries and CR-123 Battery Carrier will
require complete disassembly of the Quad Lock Mount.
6. Once the appropriate location of the Quad Lock Mount along the handle of
the light has been determined, remove all 4 of the Cap Head Screws (Figure
5-A) using the supplied Allen Wrench (Figure 5-B).
7. While holding the lower half of the Quad Lock Mount (Figure 5-C) in place
on the light, press each of the top rails (Figure 5-D) in to alignment with the
lower half and start all 4 of the Cap Head Screws (Figure 5-A). IMPORTANT:
Get all 4 of the Cap Head Screws partially installed before tightening.
8. Begin tightening all 4 Cap Head Screws (Figure 6-A) by alternating back
and forth and tightening a little at a time. When all 4 are tightened into place
(DO NOT over-tighten), the gap between the lower half of the mount and
the two top rails should be approximately 1/16" and should be equal on both
sides.
9. Test fit the Quad Lock Mount on to the mil spec Picatinny or Weaver rail of
the long gun (Figure 9-A). At the same time, determine the desired location
of the Remote Pressure Switch (Figure 9-B). NOTE: The Remote Pressure
Switch may be attached to any clean, dry flat surface on the long gun. The
location indicated in Figure 9 is just one possibility. The actual location on
your long gun will be determined by your weapon's configuration and by your
preferences.
10. Once the location of the Quad Lock Mount (Figure 9-A) and the Remote
Pressure Switch (Figure 9-B) have been determined, clean the location on
your weapon where the Remote Pressure Switch will be located as well as
the inside surface of the Remote Pressure Switch (Figure 7-A) using the
supplied Alcohol Swab (Figure 7-B).
11. Peel back one of the paper backings on the included hook and loop
Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Strip (Figure 8-A) and press it into place on the
back side of the Remote Pressure Switch (Figure 8-B).
12. Attach the Quad Lock Mount with the light installed onto the mil spec
Picatinny or Weave rail of your weapon (Figure 9-A)
13. Peel back the paper backing on the hook and loop Pressure Sensitive
Adhesive Strip and press it into place on the previously cleaned area on
your long gun (Figure 9-B).
14. NOTE: The Pressure Sensitive Adhesive will set up and make a semi-
permanent bond after about 24 hours, so please do not move/remove the
Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Strips once they have been placed. Additionally,
do not attempt to separate the two hook and loop sections until after that
time.
OPERATION
The Nightstick Xtreme Lumens Tactical Long Gun Kit is now fully installed
and ready for use.
The Remote Pressure Switch provides Momentary On/Off operation of
the light only. Using this switch, gives the operator full and instant control
over when the light is on, and when it is off
The Side Switch provides Momentary On/Off operation by pressing
slightly on the button, or Constant-on by pressing until the button clicks.
If the Quad Lock Mount has been positioned correctly (see Step 5 above),
changing the batteries may be accomplished without removing the light from
the Quad Lock Mount, and depending on your installation location, it may
be possible to change the batteries without removing the mount from your
weapon.
To change the batteries, first separate the two halves of the hook and
loop Strip from each other so that one half stays adhered to your weapon
and the other remains attached to the back side of the Remote Pressure
Switch. Next unscrew the Remote Pressure Switch, remove the CR-123
Battery Carrier and replace the batteries (see Step 2 above).
