OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure that the plastic protection film is removed
from both the front and rear cover lenses.
Press the test button. If the lens does not darken,
check the batteries.
Adjust the welding helmet according to your
individual requirements.
SWITCHING ON
Select either cut (shade 5-9) or weld (shade 9-13)
on the switch (located inside the helmet on the top
right hand side of the filter) depending on your
application.
SWITCHING OFF/GRIND MODE
After the welding is complete, or to carry out
grinding after the weld; turn the filter to the off
(grind) position.
SENSITIVITY
The sensitivity can be adjusted
between 1 and 4.
If the welding current is too
small, turn it to a higher setting.
If the welding current is too high,
turn it to a lower setting.
DELAY
The delay can be adjusted by
turning the dial to either 0.1
(fast) or 0.8 seconds (slow).
If the welding current is too high
and the molton pool is too bright,
you will need to turn the dial to a
higher setting.
For spot welding turn the dial to
a lower setting.
SHADE
The filter will automatically
change from the light state
(shade 4) to the dark state (see
below) when the welding or
cutting starts. The filter will
automatically return to a light
state when the welding stops
Cut: Shade 5-9
Weld: Shade 9-13
Note: Never block any of the sensors on the front
of the filter. This will stop the filter from
automatically changing to a dark state and could
cause damage to your eyes.
