Safety Notice
WARNING
Galaxy helmets are constructed with high quality materials and workmanship. They are engineered to
provide limited protection against head injuries when properly adjusted for fit and when worn by fire
fighters during normal fire fighting activities. They are not designed for direct contact with flames or
molten metal, or for protection against hazardous chemicals, biological, or radiological agents, or for
vehicular head protection. Contact of these fire helmets with live wires should be avoided. NEVER
ALTER OR MODIFY the helmet’s design or construction without explicit written instructions from
Bullard GmbH. Inspect your helmet and suspension system regularly, regardless of how often it is
used. If you notice any sign of wear, damage, abuse, or environmental degradation, replace the shell
and/or suspension immediately. If the helmet has sustained a forcible blow (impact), it must be
replaced, even if there is no visible damage.
The safety intended to be provided by the helmet can only be ensured when it is properly assembled
and correctly fitted. Removable parts must not be worn separately.
