Replacement of other parts:

-

  We recommend the neck protector be replaced after a maximum of 50

wash cycles, or when there are stubborn stains that cannot be removed
from repeated washings.

-

  Replace eye protector if badly scratched or deformed by chemicals,

heat, smoke or other pollutants.

-

  Replace face shield once badly scratched or deformed by chemicals,

heat, smoke or other pollutants.

-

  Internal Padding can be washed a maximum of 20 cycles. We 

reccomend replacing the padding should you notice deformation of the 
foam shapes or the material delaminating from the padding.  You may 
achieve more than 20 wash cycles , but we recommend a thorough 
evaluation of the padding to ensure comfort, fit and performance are not 
compromised.

If you have any doubts about your protective helmet and its condition,
bring this matter to the attention of your supervisor, department or
organization immediately. Protective helmets that are no longer deemed
serviceable for reasons of damage, contamination, or other unsafe
condition must be disposed of in a fashion whereby they cannot be 
reused. One example is drilling holes in the shell, removing the chinstrap 
and suspension system, and damaging the tabs for attaching the 
headband.

For general disposal, use landfills, incineration and/or other facilities 
that are in accordance with your municipal guidelines and regulations.

Contaminated protective helmets must be disposed of by your depart-
ment or organization in accordance with federal, state, or local 
regulations.
