Instructions for COAST HL8 Headlamp
BATTERY INSTALLATION: The HL8 uses four AA alkaline batteries and are located in the rear of the
headlamp. To access the battery compartment, use a coin or the edge of the adjusting buckle on the
top strap as a slotted screw driver to loosen the retaining screw on top of the battery pack. Flip open
the top of the battery pack and insert the batteries in the direction indicated inside the battery pack.
Replace the battery pack cover and tighten the retaining screw. Never mix old and new batteries.
Remove batteries before storing headlamp during non-usage.
LIGHT OPERATION: To turn on the light, depress the power switch in the center of the Light Output
Control Dial located on the right side of the bezel. To turn off the light, depress the power switch a
second time. To adjust the brightness, turn the Light Output Control Dial to select high, medium or low
light output levels.
FOCUS AND BEAM POSITION ADJUSTMENT: This headlamp is equipped with COAST’s Pure Beam™
Focusing Optic System with Twist Focus which allows the user to choose between a broad flood beam
and a focused Bulls-Eye Spot™ beam for long distance illumination. To adjust the beam into the broad,
flood light mode, turn the Twist Focus Ring bezel around the lens of the light counter clockwise when
wearing the headlamp. To adjust the beam into the Bulls-Eye Spot™ mode, turn the Twist Focus Ring
bezel around the lens of the light clockwise when wearing the headlamp. The hinged beam adjustment
allows you to tilt the beam of light down into position to illuminate objects directly in front of you or in
your hands. To adjust the beam position, hold the housing of the light with one hand and tilt the head
of the light where the focusing bezel is located down and away from your head with the other hand.
HEAD STRAP ADJUSTMENT: To adjust the HL8 to fit your head, slide the buckles on the side head strap
and/or the top strap. It may be necessary to slide the head of the light and battery pack on the side
head strap to center the light once the head band is adjusted to the proper size.
HARD HAT SAFETY HELMET CLIP USE: The HL8 includes helmet clips for use with hard hat style safety
helmets. To use the helmet clips, loosen the side and top headbands to fit the helmet and attach the
clips to the side strap of the headlamp, evenly spaced with two on each side. Put the headlamp on the
safety helmet and attach the clips to the rim of the helmet. Some adjustment of the clip positions and
head straps will be necessary for proper fit on safety helmets. Note: Clips are designed for use ONLY
with HARD HAT style safety helmets. They are not acceptable for use on most sporting safety helmets.
REMOVABLE BATTERY PACK AND EXTENSION CORD USE: The HL8 includes a removable battery pack
and three foot extension cord to allow the battery pack to be worn on your belt or placed inside a
backpack. To remove the battery pack, grasp the base where the battery pack is seated with one hand
and the battery pack with the other and pull the battery pack up. It may be necessary to release the belt
clip from the base in order to easily release the battery pack. To release the belt clip from the base,
remove one side of the strap from the battery pack base by sliding it through the slot on either side of
the base; then using the buckle on the top strap as a slotted screw driver, locate the indent on the inside
bottom of the base and pry the belt clip out slightly away from the base to release. To disconnect the
