I've owned this flashlight for years. In the comments above, ignore the instruction to remove the rubber casing around the lamp area. Simply grasp the whole front of the lamp piece (including the rubber cover), and twist in a counter-clockwise direction to remove. Then squeeze together the two black tabs and pull the battery compartment out to replace the batteries.

The front outer rubber cover is removeable. Once you take it off with your fingers, the front unscrews revealing a two piece battery case. Squeeze the top flanges together and lift out, then the battery case shown in the box just lifts out.

    It does NOT unscrew... and, what "flanges" are you talking about???

  • Anonymous Mar 02, 2011

    You have to pull the front cover off (*the black rubbery bit surrounding the lamp area). It should be flexible to stop the water getting then you can unscrew the next bit.

    Step 1: pry rubber casing from around lamp.
    Step 2: holding the flashlight between your knees and with lens facing up, rotate the lens counterclockwise until it's off. Once off there should be a kind of black plate with a spring in the center.
    Step 3: squeeze together the two raised lips on either side of this plate. This lifts out.
    Step 3: You should see a yellow handle that you lift up and the batteries will come up in the holder.

How do you take apart a bushneell 600 lumens flashlight

Taking apart a flashlight, including a Bushnell 600 Lumens flashlight, may not be recommended, as it can void the warranty and potentially damage the device. However, if you have a specific need to disassemble it, here are some general steps to follow:

1. Remove the batteries: Ensure the flashlight is turned off, and remove any batteries to prevent any accidental activation or electrical shock.

2. Look for screws or openings: Most flashlights have screws or openings around the head or tail cap that allow access to the internal components.

3. Unscrew components: Use the appropriate screwdriver or tool to remove any visible screws holding the flashlight together. If there are no screws, try gently twisting and separating the parts.

4. Be cautious with wires: If your flashlight has internal wires and circuitry, be extremely careful not to damage them while disassembling the flashlight.

5. Document your steps: Take photos or notes as you disassemble the flashlight to help you remember

Replace batteries

Marcia Boal... hello,

If our battery has corroded it may be impossible to get the end (opposite the light) cap to come off. The light is designed to be moisture resistant... Likewise even penetrating oil cannot get in...

To guarantee long reliable service it is best to put a tiny dot of grease on the threads on assembly.

Maglite Solitaire makes a wonderful little flashlight...
(all metal construction... single AAA battery)...
((Mini = 2 AAA batteries... opens the same)).

Basic colors included black, red, silver & blue
but this particular light was also quite popular for commercialization... often displaying many BIG NAME
COMPANY LOGOs.

The initial closure of the end cap can be quite loose to be effective because of it's O-ring design... however some folks put the end cap on too tight...

The

It might take some serious force to get it open again.

Consider using a piece of leather in a pair of pliers to avoid marring the case. Reassemble without over-tightening.

Hope this helps!

How do I replace the led in a 2w d cell maglite

Unscrew the top half of the flash light and pull the bulb straight up, and it's out,

Not to mention there's usually a spare bulb in the base of the flashlight under the spring in a piece of foam. unless someone used it already,

Line up the two pins and slide it back into the to pin holes on top and with the bottom of the flashlight back on with battery's try the on off switch and make sure it lights up and not have dead battery's, if it lights up throw away the old led and screw on the top of flashlight,

If it still don't light check for new battery's.

What is the alignment of the batteries in a 3d cell?

put the first one in positive side toward the light,, and the rest go in the same way, make sure the spring is attached to the base and screw it on, the positive side of the battery is the side with the bump on the end,, if it doesn't work after that ,, in the end cap of the flashlight you should have a extra bulb,, replace that and try it ,, be sure to put the spring back on the end cap

We changed the battery pack and the bulb and it wont come on so the switch is prolly defective where do we find how to repair the flash light

Alot of maglites are problematic with symptoms like this... I have found that the culprit many times is the screw cap on the bottom of the flashlight.
The elecrtrical connection needed between the spring in the end cap, the threads on the cap and the threads in the barrel of the flashlight...
Make sure you twist your spring a bit..the dissimilar metals can actually corrode between the spring and the cap... Then spin the threads a little... Then try the flashlight again...
This procedure may save yourself replacing a switch..
