How to use

Place the Boffin GB8501 on a clean ferrous surface or hold it in the hand to direct light where needed. If using the magnetic base, ensure the contact surface is free of heavy grease, debris, or paint that could reduce magnetic contact. Switch the lamp on using the integrated control and adjust the aim by repositioning the housing until the work area is properly illuminated. After use, switch off the lamp and store it in a dry place to maintain the condition of the magnetic base and LED module.

Usage recommendations

For best results, position the light at a short distance from the task to obtain concentrated illumination while avoiding glare. Use the magnetic mount on clean, flat metal surfaces to ensure stable fixation. Inspect the lamp regularly for signs of wear and keep the magnetic contact area clean to preserve secure attachment. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to extend the service life of the unit.
