Setup

1. Initial Activation (Deactivating Lockout Mode)

Upon first use, the Baldr Pro ships in lockout mode. To deactivate lockout mode and access full functionality, press and hold both side buttons simultaneously for more than two seconds. In lockout mode, the laser will not activate, and the light will only emit a dull beam.

2. Battery Installation

The Baldr Pro requires two Lithium Ion batteries (included). Ensure the total length of the compatible battery does not exceed 34.12 mm.

1. Open the tailcap by pulling up on the spring lock.
2. Remove the insulating film from the battery compartment.
3. Insert the batteries into the body, ensuring correct polarity according to the positive and negative marks.
4. Hold the tailcap firmly and close the spring lock to secure it.

3. Light Installation (Rail Mounting)

The Baldr Pro is compatible with both GL (installed) and Picatinny (included) rails. Ensure your firearm has sufficient installation space (no less than 1.771 inches from slot to guard).

1. Select the appropriate rail adapter (GL or Picatinny) for your firearm. The GL rail adapter is pre-installed, and the Picatinny (Mil-std-1913) rail mount is included in the package.
2. Open the swing arm on the weaponlight.
3. Align the weaponlight with the rail on your firearm, ensuring the rail insert fits securely into the rail notch without any movement.
4. Close the swing arm once aligned. The swing arm makes the connection tighter, preventing loosening during use.
5. Use the included T6/T8 socket head wrench to adjust the screws for a secure fit.
