Model SH-40

Headphone Instructions

The SH-40 series headphones are adjusted at the factory for immediate use with 

all current standard radio systems in general aviation aircraft. SH-40 headphones 

are equipped with one plug in the standard configuration. The headphone plug 

is a large diameter plug and should be inserted into the headphone jack (.250” 

standard monaural jack).

The headband is adjustable through a full range of motion, or the locking nuts may 

be tightened to allow you to custom fit the headphone. Place the headphone over 

your head, adjust the slides up until minimum pressure is felt on the top of your 

head. The headphone is now properly adjusted. For maximum noise attenuation, 

the clamping pressure has been set at the factory. Releasing the clamping pressure 

by bending the headband is not advised, because loss of attenuation will result. 

Note: If especially small (children) or large headbands are needed, they may be 

ordered from Sigtronics.

When you first connect the headphone, turn the volume control on the headphone 

up to the full clockwise position, then adjust the listening volume with the audio 

control of either your radio or intercom as appropriate. Passengers should also turn 

their individual headphone volumes up fully. Doing this allows for a full range of 

adjustment for each passenger, since those with the most acute hearing can turn 

their headphone volume down, if necessary.

The headphone parts may be cleaned with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. 

Then dry immediately. Caution: Do Not immerse any part of the headphone in 

water or any other liquid. Exposure to moisture may cause internal corrosion and 

failure and will void your manufacturers warranty.

Cleaning will help the headphone maintain its “like new” condition for many years.

WARRANTY

Your headphone is covered by a limited three-year parts and labor warranty. Please
