• Helmets can prevent the probability of an injury, but cannot
rule them out completely under certain circumstances. In
particular, helmets are not designed to protect the head
against being crushed by a horse.
NOTE: All components of a helmet are subject to ageing,
depending on handling, maintenance, and degree of wear,
which depends on the intensity of use and the specific
conditions of use.
Under optimum storage conditions (cool, dry, protected from
daylight; no contact with chemicals; no mechanical crushing,
pressure, or stress) and without use, the maximum lifetime is
8 years following the indicated date of production. This should
not be exceeded in use, even if the product is in a visually good
condition.
For reasons of safety, we recommend our helmets are replaced
3-5 years after initial use, depending on the intensity of use.
You can find the date of manufacture either as a calendar clock
(Fig. 10) or as a sticker on the inside of the helmet (Figs. 8 & 9).
The year of manufacture is at the centre of the calendar clock.
The arrow points to the month of manufacture.
The materials used in the product do not cause any skin
reactions, nor are they otherwise harmful to the user's health.
Nevertheless, the product should not be used again if reactions
occur while wearing the helmet.
We hope you enjoy your new equestrian helmet!
