Application and limitations
Please ensure that this eyewear always fits well.
The main purpose of this safety eyewear is to
provide the wearer with limited impact resistance.
The eyewear may not be suitable for certain
environments, such as those with low light
surroundings or liquid splash hazards. These
spectacles are intended for the following:
A) use in factories, on construction sites, in mining
operations, and on other worksites where
basic eye protection (i.e., particle impact speed
under 45 m/s) is required.
B) preventing impact hazards associated with
chipping, grinding, machining, masonry work,
riveting, and sanding.
Model
The name of the model is always indicated on the
barcode of the packaging.
Storage
Store in a dry place at room temperature and
protect from direct sunlight. The eyewear must be
transported and stored in the original package, at a
temperature between 5°C and 40°C (41°F and 104°F)
and a relative humidity of <90%.
Maintenance
The lenses must be cleaned or disinfected regularly.
This must be done using a mild detergent, optical
cleaning solution, or a solution very low in alcohol
at room temperature (20°C/68°F ± 5°C/ 41°F). The
eyewear should provide adequate protection for a
period exceeding six (6) months and up to two (2)
years. Regularly check the status. Scratched or
damaged lenses must be replaced or disposed
of immediately. The markings found on the lens and
on the frames represent the ratings of the prod-
uct. Scandia Gear is not be liable for damages aris-
ing from misuse, and improper maintenance and
preservation of this PPE.

If the symbol F, B or A is not found on both the lenses
and the frame, then the lower value is assigned to the
complete set of safety glasses. The letter T imme-
diately after the impact letter allows a use for high
speed particles at extremes of temperature. In the
absence of the letter T the protector must be used in
room temperature.
