TO ADJUST SHADE LEVEL

•  Move Shade Switch to desired range, 4 to 8 or 8 to 12.
•  Turn dial Counter-Clockwise to increase darkening level, turn Clockwise to decrease. 

This helmet also has a “GRIND” setting switch which turns off the Auto-Shade feature and keeps the 
viewer on base transparency to allow use of the Helmet for grinding and other non-welding uses.

TO SET SHADE CONTROL ON “GRIND”

Move the switch to the “GRIND” position which will lock out the Auto-Shade feature and set the 
viewer on full transparency. 

ADJUST FIT OF HELMET

 Headband: 

Push Knob in and turn Clockwise for decreasing size (tighten) or rotate  

Counter-Clockwise to increase size (loosen). 

 Width/Height:

 Push in small button on the overhead band, slide band in to shorten band or pull 

out to lengthen band. Snap button into the nearest of 5 available holes.

  Flip-up Retention:

 This will allow the helmet to stay in the “flipped-up” position. Tighten or 

loosen knobs on either side of the helmet to increase or decrease friction. 

MAINTENANCE

•  A RED LED Low Battery Indicator Light is located at the upper left corner of the inner viewing 

area. If it is illuminated, the batteries may require a charge by exposing the face of the Welding 
Helmet to bright sunlight for several hours. If this fails to extinguish the light, the batteries will 
require replacement. If this becomes necessary, replace with two 3V type CR2450 by following 
the “Replace Batteries” section below.

REPLACE BATTERIES

1. 

Note location at upper inside of Helmet and Push in on ribbed surface of Battery Covers while 
sliding outward 

(FIG 3)

2. 

Remove Batteries.

3. 

Replace Batteries with 3V type CR2450 with positive side facing upward.

4. 

Replace Battery Covers. 

•  Check lens assembly for damage before each use. If cracked or broken, 

DO NOT USE

.

•  Clean outside and inside of lens with a soft cloth and small amount of glass cleaner.  

NOTE:

 Do not use excessive glass cleaner or allow the lens assembly to become wet or the
