10. Do not immerse the Auto-Darkening filter in water.

11. Do not use any solvents on the Auto-Darkening filter screen or helmet components.

WARNING!

Before use, read and understand the instruction manual

and follow all labels, employer´s safety practices and

Safety Data Sheets (SDSs).

WARNING!

Only qualified personnel should install, operate, maintain, and repair this unit.

12. Protect theauto-darkening (ADF) filter from contact with liquid and dirt.

•Clean the (ADF) surface regularly by using clean water and a lint-free or microfiber

cloth; do not use strong cleaning solutions. Always keep the sensors and solar

cells clean using a clean lint-free tissue or microfiber cloth.

•Regularly replace a cracked/scratched/pitted front cover lens. Avoid setting the helmet

down directly on the cover lens to avoid premature damage to the cover lens.

•The materials which may come into contact with the wearer’s skin can cause

allergicreactions in some circumstances.

•The Auto-Darkening filter shall only be used in conjunction with the inner cover lens.

ARC RAYS - Can injure eyes and burn skin

The arc, like the sun, emits ultraviolet (UV) and other radiation and

can injure skin and eyes. Hot metal can cause burns. Training in the

proper use of the processes and equipment is essential to prevent

accidents. Therefore:

1. Wear a welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter to protect your face and eyes

when welding or watching.

2. Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet.

3. Before welding, adjust the auto-darkening filter (ADF) lens sensitivity to meet the

application.Warn bystanders not to watch the arc and not to expose themselves to the

rays of the electric-arc or hot metal.

4. Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant material. A flameproof

apron may also be desirable as protection against radiated heat and sparks.

5. Protect other personnel from arc rays and hot sparks with a suitable non-flammable

partition or curtains.

6. Use goggles or face shield over safety glasses when chipping slag or grinding.

Chipped slag may behot and can fly far. Bystanders should also wear goggles over

safety glasses.

NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing

Protect your ears. Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high.

FUMES AND GASES

Fumes and gases can cause discomfort or harm, particularly in

confined spaces. Shielding gases can cause asphyxiation. Therefore:

1. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes and gases.

2. Always provide adequate ventilation in the work area by natural or mechanical means.

Do not weld, cut or gouge on materials such as galvanized steel, stainless steel,

copper, zinc, lead beryllium or cadmium unless positive mechanical ventilation is

provided. Do not breathe fumes from these materials.

3. Do not operate near degreasing and spraying operations. The heat or arc can react

with chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas and other

irritant gases.

4. If you develop momentary eye, nose or throat irritation while operating, this is an

indication that ventilation is not adequate. Stop work and take necessary steps to

improve ventilation in the work area. Do not continue to operate if physical discomfort

persists.

5. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 for specific ventilation recommendations.

FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS

Heat from flames and arcs can start fires. Hot slag or sparks can also

cause fires and explosions. Therefore:

1. Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.

2. Remove all combustible materials well away from the work area or cover the materials

with a protective non-flammable covering. Combustible materials include wood, cloth,

sawdust, liquid and gas fuels, solvents, paints coatings, paper, etc.

3. Hot sparks or hot metal can fall through cracks or crevices in floors or wall openings

and cause a hidden smoldering fire or fires on the floor below. Make certain that such

openings are protected from hot sparks and metal.

4. Do not weld, cut or perform other hot work until the work piece has been completely

cleaned so that there are no substances on the work piece which might produce

flammable or toxic vapors. Do not do hot work on closed containers, they may

explode.

5. Have fire extinguishing equipment handy for instant use, such as a garden hose,

water pail, sand bucket, or portable fire extinguisher. Be sure you are trained in its

use.

6. Do not use equipment beyond its ratings. For example, an overloaded welding cable

can overheat and create a fire hazard.

7. After completing operations, inspect the work area to make certain there are no hot

sparks or hot metal which could cause a fire later. Use fire watchers when necessary.

(1) As a rule of thumb, start with a shade that is too dark, then go to a lighter shade which gives a sufﬁcient view of the weld zone without

going below the minimum. In oxyfuel gas welding or cutting where the torch produces a high yellow light, it is desirable to use a ﬁlter

lens that absorbs the yellow or sodium line the visible light of the (spectrum) operation.

(2) These values apply where the actual arc is seen. Experience has shown that lighter ﬁlters may be used when the arc is hidden by the

workpiece.

ADJUSTING THE FIT OF THE HELMET

The overall circumference of the headband can be made larger or smaller by rotating the knob

on the back of the headband. (See adjustment “1” in the picture below). This can be done while

wearing the helmet and allows easy micro-level tension adjustment to keep the helmet firmly on

the head without it being too tight.

If the headband is riding too high or too low on your head, adjust the straps which passes over

the top of your head. To do this, release the end of the band by pushing the locking pin out of the

band’s hole. Slide the two portions of the band to a greater or lesser width as required, and push

the locking pin through the nearest hole. (See adjustment “4” in the picture below).

ADJUSTING THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HELMET AND FACE

1. Press and hold the slider (see adjustment 3 in the picture below) on both sides, to slide

the headgear back and forth within the helmet.

2. Ensure the slider is locked back into position and make certain the distance between the

lens to both eyes is equal. This avoids issues with uneven ADF darkness.

ADJUSTING VIEW ANGLE POSITION

The tilt adjustment is located on the right side of the helmet. Loosen the right headgear tension

knob and adjust the lever forward or back to the desired position (see adjustment 2 in the picture

below). Retighten the right headgear tension knob.
