General
HG902 protective helmets provide effective protection for the upper part of the head against risk of im-
pact. They are designed and manufactured for your personal safety and should be used only in areas that
present a safety risk. This P.P.E. (Personal Protective Equipment) complies with standard EN397.
Zones for use
Use of this helmet is recommended essentially for use during any activity that presents a risk of impact to
the upper part of the head due to falling objects: general industry, road work, construction sites, quarries,
etc.
For further information, please check the technical characteristics indicated for this P.P.E. and the limits
for its use.
Cleaning
To clean this P.P.E., use a solution of water at ambient temperature (20°C ± 5°C) with a gentle detergent
(non-alkaline). Do not use hot water or solvents to clean this item.
If you observe any stains that cannot be removed in this way, do not use the helmet.
We recommend that you take the helmet off (pull back the adjustment strap) before beginning this
procedure in order to clean it more easily and effectively.
After washing it, rinse it with clean water and dry it using a soft clean cloth.
Never use an abrasive cloth and do not use an external heat source to dry it.
By definition, P.P.E.'s are Personal Protective Equipment, which is why the user is recommended that the
helmet be used by one person only.
Storage
For storing or transporting this P.P.E, no special packaging is recommended, a cardboard box is sufficient,
or a plastic bag, plastic container etc.
It should be kept in a cool, dry, ventilated place, away from light (or from any other source of radiation),
aggressive or corrosive agents (paint, solvents, acids etc.) and dust. Heavy objects should not be placed
on the helmets, nor should they be put in a situation where they will be subjected to compressive forces.
Once it has been used, before putting it away, the helmet should be washed and dried.
Maximum storage conditions:
Temperature: 45°C (± 2°)
Relative humidity: 75% (± 5%)
Period of use, expiration date
The length of time during which this helmet can be used depends in large part on how well it is cared for
and on its conditions of use. In any case, we recommend that you replace the helmet after three years of
use. The date indicated on the helmet is its date of manufacture.
Primarily, the helmet should be replaced whenever the slightest sign of wear or deterioration is observed
(perforations, breaks, cracks, pitting, loss of color etc.; both in the helmet and the strap.
In the following cases, even though the helmet may not exhibit any visible exterior damage, it must be
replaced:
- if it is subjected to an impact within a certain range
- if it is subjected to electrical discharge
- if it exhibits crusting on its crown as a consequence of a splashing of melted metal, corrosive agents etc.
Adjustment
To obtain adequate protection, the headgear must be adjusted to the dimension of your head.
The headgear will accommodate a range of sizes from 52 to 60 cm.
Insert the web suspension into the helmet by inserting the 4 tabs into the 4 slots provided in the helmet
for this purpose. (Figure 1) (the sweatband should be positioned at the front of the helmet).
Position the adjustable strap located in the rear of the band so that the desired size is obtained.
The helmet should remain securely on the head without causing excessive pressure on it.
If you must use the chinstrap:
- Install the chinstrap to the helmet by inserting the hooks into the two holes used to attach the strap,
located at either side of the helmet (figure 3).
- Adjust the adjustment loop until it is comfortable and properly adjusted. Do not over-tighten.
Limits of use
Here it is important to note that this P.P.E. protects only the upper part of the head, and not the entire head.
Do not use it in the following situations:
- if contact with any type of electrical conductor could occur
- when the helmet might be subjected to compressive forces
- if there is risk of splashing melted metal, acid or any other aggressive or corrosive agent.
IMPORTANT
- THIS HELMET IS NOT UNBREAKABLE OR INDESTRUCTIBLE. IT OFFERS CONSIDERABLE
RESISTANCE TO IMPACT BUT DOES NOT OFFER UNLIMITED PROTECTION AGAINST THIS
RISK
Ultimately, the purpose of the helmet as an element of protection is to absorb the energy generated
when it is subjected to impact. In this case, it is possible for any of the components to break, deform, or
deteriorate significantly.
- Be sure that you correctly understand when and why you must use this helmet. Ensure that the helmet
is the appropriate model to cover the risks to which you will be exposed. When in doubt, consult your
safety advisor.
- This P.P.E. is manufactured with hypoallergenic materials; however, allergic reactions may still occur in
people who are hyper-allergenic.
- Do not change, modify or eliminate any of the P.P.E.'s components. Use only original spare parts for
this helmet model.
- In persons who have specific physical characteristics, the helmet may not be correctly adjusted and
consequently the helmet's effectiveness may be seriously compromised.
- You are advised to carefully check the P.P.E. each time you intend to use it. To do this, a quick visual
and manual inspection will suffice. Pay special attention to the anchoring and adjustment points of the
strap, the condition of the cap, and the condition of the sweatband. Ensure that none of the components
are defective or prevent its use.
- Do not use the helmet unless it has all its original components, correctly located and adjusted.
- Do not put any paint, solvent, acid, lubricant or any corrosive or aggressive agent on the surface of the
P.P.E. Do not apply any adhesive labels or any other sort of glue to it. The chemical agents involved
may damage the helmet and decrease its effectiveness.
The effectiveness of this P.P.E. depends on carefully respecting all the indications described in this
manual.

To ensure proper protection, this helmet must be adapted to the size of the wearer's head.
The helmet is constructed in such a way that the energy produced by an impact is absorbed by
the destruction or partial deterioration of the cap and the strap; even if this type of
deterioration is not immediately apparent, we recommend that you replace any helmet that
has been subjected to impact.
We would also like to bring the user's attention to the danger that could be caused if any
of the original components were to be modified or eliminated, except for modifications or
removals recommended by the manufacturer of the helmet. The helmets must not in any
case be adapted for the attachment of accessories using a procedure not recommended by the
helmet's manufacturer.
Do not apply any paint, solvents, adhesives or adhesive labels, except those recommended by
the instructions from the helmet's manufacturer.
