Initial use
Note:
Only use the welding helmet with the rear
pane mounted
4
.
Note:
Keep the UV filter‘s sensors
8
clean and
clear.
Check that the welding helmet and the
protective screen are intact before each use.
If the protective screen has scratches, cracks or
irregularities, it must be replaced before use,
as serious injuries may occur otherwise.
z
Remove the protective film from the inside and
the outside of the visor.
z
Put on the welding helmet with the help of the
headband
5
. Press the adjustment buttons
6
to make the welding helmet tighter and
the adjustment button
7
, to fix the welding
helmet. When adjusting, ensure that your head
is placed as far into the helmet as possible and
that it sits as close as possible to your face.
z
Set the appropriate darkening shade before
the welding procedure (see the following
table). The darkening shade may be manually
adjusted from 9 to 13 by twisting the darken-
ing regulator
9
on the outside of the helmet.
ATTENTION!
The darkening regulator
9
has the setting position “grind“. If the darkening
regulator
9
is set to this position the automatic
darkening is deactivated.
Only use this setting when you do not wish to use
the welding helmet for welding. The automatic
darkening is then no longer active.
z
Check the light density before each use.
z
Test procedure: Bring the viewing panel closer
to an external light source with a value of more
than 40 W and examine whether or not the
screen darkens or illuminates. To do so, turn the
darkening control
9
clockwise from "Grind"
to the next position. This sets the filter to
auto-darkening mode. If you turn the darkening
control
9
anticlockwise back to "Grind", the
filter's auto-darkening feature is once again
deactivated.
z
To replace the UV filter/solar cell, press the lock-
ing lugs on both sides of the filter outwards (see
figure B). Then use a finger to lift the filter at the
notch at the top of the filter. (Variant: Black)
