SECTION 3-AUTO-DARKENING HELMET

The Solar-Powered Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet is suitable for most welding and

grinding applications. This helmet comes with a 1/30,000-second switching time

which automatically darkens the lens the moment you start welding. No matter what

shade the filter is set to, the UV/IR protection is always present.

The front lens incorporates an outer UV/IR filter lens which can be replaced by

unclipping the cartridge from inside the helmet. The inner lens can also be replaced

(spare lenses supplied) and each control knob assembly contains a lithium battery

which can be replaced by sliding off the enclosing panel on each controller.

For a breakdown of all components see page 22.

CAUTION:

ARC RAYS CAN INJURE EYES AND BURN SKIN

Before welding, always inspect the helmet and auto-darkening filter (ADF) to be sure

they are fitted properly and in good condition. Keep the sensors, solar cell and filter

lens clean. Clean the filter cartridge using a soapy water solution and soft cloth. Do

not use solvents or abrasive cleaning detergent.

DO NOT weld in the overhead position while using this helmet.

Inspect the filter lens frequently and immediately replace any scratched, cracked or

pitted filter lens or cover lenses.

ALWAYS wear safety glasses or goggles under the welding helmet and protective

clothing to protect your skin from radiation, burns and spatter.
