This helmet provides limited protection from minor and incidental impact hazards, and no protection while
in the raised position. Do not rely on this welding helmet as your primary protection from impact or splash
hazards. For your protection, read these welding helmet and ADF instructions completely before using.
Failure to follow all of these instructions can result in serious and permanent injury, vision loss or burns.
USA IMPACT RESISTANT SAFETY SPECTACLES OR GOGGLES MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES
WHEN USING THIS HELMET.
Clear polycarbonate protective plates must be installed on both the inside and outside of the auto-dark-
ening filter (ADF) before use. Failure to use protective plates can result in irreparable damage to the
ADF and may cause serious and permanent injury, vision loss or burns. Damage to the lens from fail-
ure to install clear plates will void the warranty. The protective cover plates of this helmet only provide
protection against splatters and surface damage to the lens, NOT against severe impact hazards, such
as fragmented grinding wheels or abrasive discs, explosive devices or corrosive liquids.
BEFORE WELDING
• Ensure that the helmet is correctly assembled and that it completely blocks any accidental
light. In the front, light may enter the helmet only through the viewing area of the
autodarkening welding filter.
●
Adjust the headgear to maximize comfort and field of vision with the flexi-seal providing a
good seal to the face, especially reaching down to the chin.
●
Check the prescribed shade level, light sensitivity, opening time delay for your welding
application and adjust your ADF accordingly (see the table with recommended shade levels).
PRECAUTIONS
• Never place the helmet or the ADF on hot surface.
• Replace scratched or damaged protection plates. Before using the new protection plate, make
sure to remove any additional protection film from both sides.
• Use the TRANSLIGHT welding helmet within the temperature range of 23°F to 131°F (-5°C to
55°C).
• Do not expose the auto-darkening filter to liquids and protect it from dirt.
• Use only original JACKSON SAFETY® TRANSLIGHT spare parts. In case of doubt, please
contact your authorized distributor.
• Failure to follow these instructions will invalidate the warranty. Surewerx does not accept
responsibility for any problems which may arise from applications other than welding, or if the
instructions for use are not strictly followed. The TRANSLIGHT® welding helmet is manufactured
to protect the welder's face against spatters and hazardous ultraviolet and infrared rays emitted
during the welding process. It is not intended to be used as a protection against impact, flying
particles, molten metals, corrosive liquids or hazardous gases.
• Do not use for overhead welding where there is a falling molten metal hazard. This welding
helmet/filter system does not provide protection from molten metal and spatter during direct
overhead welding.
●
Materials which may come into contact with the wearer's skin could cause allergic reactions
to susceptible individuals.
●
Welding helmet worn over standard ophthalmic spectacles may transmit impact, thus create
a hazard to the wearer
• If the symbols F, B and A are not common to both the ocular and the frame then it is the lower level
which shall be assigned to the complete eye-protector.
• The eye protector shall only be used against high speed particles at room temperature, not against
high speed particles at extremes of temperature.
