1. Sensitivity Control
Use control to make the lens
more responsive to different
light levels in various
welding processes.
Use a Mid-Range or
30-50% sensitivity setting
for most applications.
It may be necessary to
adjust helmet sensitivity
to accommodate different
lighting conditions or if lens
is flashing On and Off.
Adjust helmet sensitivity
as follows:
> Adjust helmet sensitivity
in lighting conditions
helmet will be used in.
• Turn sensitivity control
to lowest setting.
• Face the helmet in the
direction of use, exposing
it to the surrounding
light conditions.
• Gradually turn sensitivity
setting clockwise until the
lens darkens, then turn
sensitivity control
counterclockwise until
slightly past setting
where lens clears.
Helmet is ready for use.
Slight readjustment
may be necessary
for certain applications
or if lens is flashing on
and off.
