3. ADJUSTMENT
Before use, the helmet must be properly adjusted to provide effective protection.
The user should adjust the hard hat to the circumference of the head, changing the
wearing height and the length of the chin strap in such a way that the hard hat fits
well, does not move or tilt.
HEAD CIRCUIT ADJUSTMENT
The hard hat is equipment with a ratchet mechanism to adjust to the circumference
of the head with the precision of 1mm over a range of 53 to 63cm. After putting the
helmet on the head, adjust it to the head circumference by turning the knob of the
headband (1) located on the back of the helmet (Fig.1). Turning to the left (2) allows
you to loosen and turn to the right (3) to tighten the headband.
ADJUSTMENT OF WEARING HEIGHT
The hart had has two adjustment positions for the wearing height (Fig.2). After
putting the helmet on the head, make sure that the cradle is properly adjusted to the
height of the head. As standard, the attachment of the headband (1) is mounted in
the low position (2). In order to change the wearing height, attach the attachment of
the headband to the high position (3).
ADJUSTMENT OF THE CHIN STRAP
The chinstrap (Fig. 3) has a length adjustment, individually for the left and right of the
strap. For each part, the length of the front (1) and rear (2) sections can be changed
by sliding the strip through the splitter (3).
FASTENING OF THE CHIN STRAP
To fasten the strap, insert the strap element (1) into the clip (2) (Fig.4) To unfasten the
strap, pull the clip (1) and release the strap element (2) from the clip. (Fig.5)
OPENING/CLOSING OF THE FACE SHIELD
1. In order to lower (open) the face shield (Fig.6), gently grab it with hand, (1), pull it
down (2), until it fully extends to the outside of the helmet (3).
2. In order to lift (close) the face shield (Fig.7), gently grab it with hand, (1), and slide
the face shield into the helmet, by pushing it upward (2).
Caution! Incorrect (not according to the instruction) use/opening/closing of
the face shield may cause its damage. Do not press on parts of the face shield
too hard and do not close/open it too fast.
4. CHECKS BEFORE EACH USE
The hard hat and the face shield must be checked each time before work is resumed.
During the visual inspection, the following items must be checked:
o
absence of visible defects on hard hat;
o
proper operation of the head circumference adjustment mechanism;
o
proper operation of the chin strap fastener;
o
absence of visible defects on the shield;
o
proper operation of the shield's mechanisms;
o
the period of use or expiry date.
In the event of a mechanical damage of the shell (cracks, deep scratches, etc.) or
chemical (discoloration, fading, etc.), improper operation of the head circumference
adjustment or of the chin strap fastener and mechanical (cracks, deep scratches,
perforations), or chemical (discoloration, tarnishing etc.) damage to the face shield
or its malfunction and if there is any doubt as to the optimal level of protection, the
helmet must not be used for work on live equipment and it should be withdrawn from
use
If the expiry date has passed, the helmet must be disposed of.
If the helmet is wet, it must be completely dried before use.
WARNING! Before starting work, the user should check whether the electrical
limits for helmets correspond to the voltage rating and the category or class
of hazards that they are likely to encounter during use.
