• The helmet comes ready assembled but before it can be used it must be adjusted to fit
the user properly and set up for delay time, sensitivity and shade level.
•
ADJUSTING THE FIT OF THE HELMET
TSensitivityhe overall circumference of the headband can be made larger or smaller by
rSensitivityotating the knob on the back of the headband (See adjustment “Y” in fig.1).
This can be done whilst wearing the helmet and allows just the right tension to be set 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 strap 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 hole in the band. 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 “W”
in fig.1).
