ATTENTION!
The darkening control

Perform test procedure
You can use the test button
10
to check whether the welding helmet‘s darkening feature is working
properly.
Go towards an external light source at more than 40 W with the viewing pane and check whether
the pane becomes darker or lighter. 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.

Delay setting
You can adjust the delay setting

to configure whether or not the auto-darkening feature should be
switched off immediately after stopping welding work, depending on the type of welding work. At the
lowest setting, auto-darkening is switched off immediately. Turning the control dial further clockwise
towards the highest setting, means that the darkening function will remain active for longer after welding
work. This feature is very useful for handling afterglow.
Sensitivity setting
You can use the sensitivity setting
12
to adjust the light sensitivity of the sensor. With low incident light,
the control can be adjusted to the highest setting to ensure that the auto-darkening feature is activated
even for a weak light source. Even with this additional feature, you can also adjust the light sensitivity of
the sensor to suit your own personal requirements.
