Safety instructions
Please read the user instructions before using the helmet. Check that the front cover lens, the head band,
the safety lens and the shade cartridge have been correctly fitted. The welding helmet must not be used if
faults cannot be remedied. The safety lens must be mounted in any use of the product.
Warnings & safety restrictions
Heat and radiatio n that can cause eye and skin injuries are emitted during the welding process. This product
provides eye and face protection. Your eyes are always protected from ultraviolet and infrared radiation
when you are wearing the helmet with folded down Automatic Darkening Filter (ADF), irrespective of the
shade level. Appropriate additional safety clothing must be worn to protect the rest of the body. Some
people may suffer allergic reactions to particles and substances that are released dur ing the welding
process. Materials that come into contact with skin may cause allergic reactions to susceptible persons.
The welding helmet may only be used for welding, and for no other purpose. Optrel will not accept any
liability if the welding helmet is used for any other purpose or the user instructions are disregarded. The
helmet is suitable for all of established welding procedures except for gas and laser welding. Please pay
attention to the shade level recommendation in accordance with EN169 on the envelope. The welding
helmet may not be used for overhead welding, since there is a risk of injury from falling molten metal.
Sleep mode
The cartridge has an automatic switch-off function, which increases the service life. If the light falls on the
cartridge for a period of approx. 10 minutes less than 1 Lux, it automatically switches off. To reactivate the
cartridge, it must be briefly exposed to daylight. If the shade cartridge cannot be reactivated or does not
darken when the welding arc is ignited, the batteries must be replaced.
Warranty & Liability
The warranty conditions can be found in the instructions from the national sales organisation of Optrel.
Please contact your Optrel dealer for further information concerning this matter.
The warranty only applies to material and manufacturing defects. In the event of damage caused by
improper use, unauthorised intervention or use for a purpose that is not intended by the manufacturer, the
warranty and liability will be null and void. Likewise, liability and the warranty are no longer valid if spare
parts other than those sold by Optrel are used.
Expected Lifetime
The welding helmet has no expiration date. The product can be used as long as no visible or invisible
damage or functional problems occur.
How to use (Quick Start Guide)
1. Head band (p. 2-3) Adjust the upper adjusting band to the size of your head. Push in the ratchet knob
(p. 2) and turn until the head band fits securely but without pressure.
2. Distance from eyes and helmet angle (p. 2-3) By releasing the locking knobs, the distance between
the cartridge and the eyes can be adjusted. Adjust both sides equally and do not tilt. Then tighten the
locking knobs again. The helmet angle can be adjusted using the rotary knob.
3. Autopilot/ Shade Level (p. 6) This welding helmet has an automatic shade level setting "Autopilot"
adjusted to the intensity of the light arc via sensors. This welding helmet covers all shade levels
between 5 and 14 (according to EN 379) in the active state. The ADF should be used at the start in
the neutral position "N" and corrected via rotary knob according to personal preference by up to two
shade levels up or down.
4. Grinding / visual inspection (p. 2-3) By folding the ADF up, the welding helmet can be used for
grinding or visual inspections without compromising on safety. Never grind without the safety lens.
5. Sensitivity (p.6) Use the sensitivity knob to set the ambient light sensitivity. By turning the knob,
these can be customized adapted to the application, the environment and the welding process. In
the "Super High" range the maximum light sensitivity can be achieved.
6. Delay switch (p. 6) The opening delay switch (Delay) allows to select an opening delay from dark to
light. The switch is located under the battery cover and allows a choice of 0.3s "Fast" or 1.5 "Twilight"
(with fading effect). The Twilight setting is not suitable for high frequent tack welding applications
For tack welding the "Fast" setting is recommended.
Cleaning
The shade cartridge and the front cover lens must be cleaned with a soft cloth at regular intervals. No
strong cleaning agents, solvents, alcohol or cleaning agents containing scouring agent must be used.
Scratched or damaged lenses must be replaced.
Storage
The welding helmet must be stored at room temperature and with low air humidity. Storing the helmet
in the original packaging or in the included storage bag will increase the service life of the batteries.
Removing / installing the ADF (p. 4-5)
1. Fold the flip adapter up
2. Press the latch by pressing down slightliy the opening sash (on right side)
3. Slide the ADF simultaneously with the other hand out of the adapter to the right until the ADF is
removed completely.
The shade cartridge is installed in the reverse order.
Replacing the front cover lens (p. 4-5)
Before changing the front cover lens, the ADF must be removed. See the previous section "Removing
/ installing the ADF". After removing the ADF the front cover lens can be pulled out easily from the flip
adapter. The front cover lens is installed in the reverse order.
Replacing the inside cover lens. (p. 4-5)
Before changing the inside cover lens, the ADF must be removed. See the previous section "Removing
/ installing the ADF". Lift the inside cover lens slightly in the middle and pulling it downward. The inside
cover lens is installed in the reverse order.
Replacing the safety lens / grinding lens (p. 4-5)
1. Fold up the flip adapter. Press the safety lens strongly in the middle to the outside.
2. Slip the new safety lens to the left or right between the lower frame and the holder.
3. Press it with the lower hand, centrally upwards. At the same time you have to press the unfixed edge
with the upper hand downwards until the lens can be fixed on the other side between the frame and the
holder (for this step the safety lens must be buckled shortly to be able to place it properly).
Replacing the batteries (p. 2-3)
The shade cartridge has replaceable lithium button cell batteries, type CR2032. The batteries must be
replaced when the LED on the cartridge flashes in red.
1. Carefully remove battery cover
2. Remove batteries and dispose of in accordance with the national regulations for special waste
3. Use type CR2032 batteries as depicted
4. Carefully remount battery cover
If the shade cartridge does not darken when the welding arc is ignited, please check battery polarity. To
check whether the batteries still have sufficient power, hold the shade cartridge against a bright lamp. If the
red LED flashes, the batteries are empty and must be replaced immediately. If the shade cartridge does not
operate correctly in spite of correct battery replacement, it must be declared unusable and must be replaced.
Troubleshooting
Cartridge does not darken
→ Adjust sensitivity
→ Clean sensors or front cover lens
→ Check the light flow to the sensor (do not cover the sensors)
→ Replace the batteries (p. 2-3)
Protection level too light
→ adjust shade level correction according individual preference up to 2 additional shade levels
→ Replace front cover lens (dirty cover lenses can interfere with sensors)
Protection level too dark
→ adjust shade level correction according individual preference up to minus 2 additional shade levels
Cartridge flickers
→ Adjust position of the delay switch to "Fast"
→ Replace the batteries (p. 2-3)
Poor vision
→ Clean the front cover lens, inside cover lens, grinding lens or ADF
→ Adjust the shade level correction to the welding procedure
→ Increase the ambient light
Welding helmet slips
→ Adjust/tighten the head band (p. 2-3)
