Understand the Lamp Warnings on a Portable Work Light

Video Transcript

"In this video clip we'll be talking about lamp warnings. There is a high risk of severe burns with these halogen lamps during the use and even immediately after you turn it off the lamps and the lamp heads are extremely hot. If you touch them with your bare hands it will cause severe burns so you want to turn off the lights and allow it to cool completely before attempting to change the lamp. Additionally you want to make sure and keep the work light out of the reach of children and away from where they are playing. If you touch the bulb inside the lamp the natural oils from your skin will damage it and cause it to burn out. If you do accidentally touch it you want to make sure and thoroughly clean the lamp with alcohol before installing it. Make sure you always use a clean cloth when handling the bulb. Lastly this is a 500 watt lamp set meaning each bulb is 250 watts if you replace the bulb with a bulb that is greater than 250 watts you will cause damaged to the lamp head."
