Introduction
This manual must be read carefully both by the individuals who wear the helmet and by those
responsible for its maintenance. Keep this manual, because it represents, together with the purchase
invoice, the guarantee for the helmet.
These are the instructions for the use and maintenance of the MO-1 helmet. It is our hope that the product will
meet your needs and prove to be of use for many years.
A great deal of attention has been paid to the text and illustrations in this user’s manual. Nevertheless, the
publisher cannot be held liable for any errors or for their consequences.
Suggestions regarding the product and its manual can be presented to our company, which shall take them into
account, should they result in concrete improvements.
CATU reserves the right to modify, even without advance notification, both the product and its accessories, as

The companies, brands and products mentioned all represent registered or pending trademarks or titles.
Features
The performance characteristics for which the helmet has been designed are guaranteed only if it used correctly
and if maintenance is performed as described in the instructions.
Should this not be the case, then the protective features cannot be guaranteed.
The guarantees provided by CATU with regard to this product shall be null and void should the warnings,
precautions and instructions contained in the present manual not be followed.
After reading the manual, should you still have any doubts regarding the level of protection offered by the helmet,
the conditions for its use or the maintenance procedures, feel free to contact us at the numbers indicated.
Warnings
Failure to respect the warnings listed below could have grave, and even life-threatening, consequences.
This helmet is designed to provide protection from impact, from penetration from above, from crushing, from
tension and from exposure to flames, within the limits contemplated under the EN 397 Norm.
It is meant to reduce the effects of unforeseen events, but it cannot protect the head from all eventualities.
To ensure maximum protection, the helmet:
▪
MUST
be properly placed on the head, and the webbing must be adjusted to ensure that the helmet fits
snugly, through with a certain degree of comfort.
▪
To ensure maximum stability of the helmet, always attach and adjust the chin-strap correctly; this will help
reduce shifting of the helmet resulting from certain environmental conditions.
▪
Do not place any outside objects between the padding and the parts of the helmet beneath it, given that
such objects, in the event of an impact, can transmit significant force to the head, with serious, potentially
life-threatening consequences.
▪
NEVER USE
this helmet for driving or for sports activities.
▪
Inspect the helmet before and after each use, employing the inspection procedures described in this
manual and immediately replacing any worn or damaged parts exclusively with spare parts supplied by
CATU.
▪
NEVER
alter or modify the helmet.
▪
NEVER
attach accessories and/or decals or labels within 25 mm of the edge of the shell. Any modifications
or any utilisation of accessories other than those supplied by Catu S.A. may reduce the levels of protection
or the dielectric properties.
▪
NEVER
use paints, solvents or detergents made from hydrocarbons on this helmet. Such substances can
damage the materials in a manner not visible to the eye, reducing their protective properties.
▪
Scratched or damaged visor should be replaced.
Precautions
▪
This helmet
MUST
be kept in a clean, dry, dark spot, not near sources of heat, and at a constant
temperature of b5° and +40°C.
▪
The helmet should be washed with lukewarm water and neutral soap.
▪
NEVER
keep the helmet inside the vehicle when not being used. Not only will it be exposed to sunlight
(UV rays and heat), but, if not adequately set in place, it could also be thrown about inside the vehicle in
the event of a sudden stop
.
Sharp impact
Following a sharp impact or stress, the helmet should not be used again. Internal breakage which cannot be
seen could decrease resistance to subsequent impacts. Should you have any doubts, do not hesitate to contact
CATU.
Chemical agents
All chemical products, corrosive substances and solvents could, in certain concentrations, prove dangerous for
this product. If it is possible or necessary for your helmet to come into contact with such substances, consult
Catu, indicating the name or the compound, and you will be given an appropriate response following careful
study of the specific case.
