TO REMOVE/REPLACE CHEEKPADS
When first servicing the cheekpads, it is suggested that you do only one at
a time so that the other can be used as reinstallation guide.
To remove cheekpads, first undo chinstrap. Pull pad toward the rear of the
helmet, then inward to release and slide it off the strap.
To take off fabric covering for washing, peel the covering off until all the
fabric is on the face side surface. Then draw the covering through the
opening by grasping the rectangular collar and pulling.
TX-4 / XD4 cheekpad is equipped with a 5mm surface foam layer. The
layer is removable to offer a bit more room if desired.
To wash fabric coverings, put them into lukewarm water with small
amount of laundry soap or your own shampoo and wash gently by hand.
Rinse well with fresh water and wipe off with a soft cloth. Dry them in the
shade at ambient temperature.
To replace fabric covering, ensure it is turned right side out, and stretch
the covering over pad so that the label that says EMERGENCY TAB
INSIDE sewn on the covering comes at the front bottom of the cheekpad
assembly, and adjust the covering to lie smoothly. Be sure EMERGENCY
TAB is covered by the fabric covering. Then push the rectangular collar
through the pad assembly and adjust into final position.
WARNING: Do not leave the EMERGENCY TAB outside the fabric covering.
The looped tab may be caught by projecting objects when riding.
