5.2 Adjusting Focus

The UF-1903 features an adjustable focus. To adjust the beam from a wide floodlight to a narrow spotlight, hold the head of the flashlight and rotate the tail section. Rotating in one direction will zoom in (spotlight), and rotating in the other will zoom out (floodlight). This screw-type adjustment provides a stable focus.
