3. Setup Instructions
- Unpack the Adapter: Carefully remove the UpBright 6V AC/DC Adapter from its packaging.
- Inspect for Damage: Before use, visually inspect the adapter and its cable for any signs of damage. Do not use if damaged.
- Identify Device Input: Locate the power input port on your compatible worklight (e.g., Braun 63990, 64797, or Harbor Freight Tools 845). Ensure it matches the barrel round connector of the adapter.
- Connect to Device: Insert the barrel connector of the adapter cable firmly into the power input port of your worklight.
- Connect to Power Outlet: Plug the AC prongs of the adapter into a standard 100-240VAC 50/60Hz wall outlet.

4. Operating Instructions
Once the adapter is correctly connected to both the device and a power outlet, the charging process will begin automatically. Most compatible worklights will have an indicator light that changes color (e.g., from red to green) to signify charging status.
- Charging Indication: Observe your device's charging indicator. A common indication of a full charge is a green light.
- Charging Time: Charging times may vary depending on the battery's current charge level and capacity.
- Battery Lifespan: Rechargeable batteries have a finite lifespan, typically 1 to 3 years. An old or degraded battery may not accept a charge, which is a characteristic of the battery itself, not an issue with the charger.
- Disconnecting: Once charging is complete, or if you need to stop charging, first unplug the adapter from the wall outlet, then disconnect the barrel connector from your device.
