Use a soft sponge or cloth dampened with a solution of warm water and mild detergent to clean
the visor.
To install the visor, slide each quick-connect locking arm into the slot from which it was removed.
The quick-connect mechanisms will click into place when they are fully engaged.
If applicable, attach the cloth heatshield to the hook fasteners on the impact cap. Put the cloth
heatshield as close to the suspension headband as possible to prevent contact with the front
mounting screws on the underside of the brim.
WARNING!
