3 Use and Adjustment
For adequate protection, this helmet must fit or be adjusted to the size of the user's head.
The attention of users is also drawn to the danger of modifying or removing any of the original component
parts of the helmet, other than as recommended by the helmet manufacturer. Helmets should not be adapted
for the purpose of fitting attachments in any way not recommended by the helmet manufacturer.

Basic Adjustments

Basic adjustments should enable a high level of comfort for most users. They can be performed with the
helmet on the head.
WARNING!
To provide maximum protection, make sure to adjust the helmet properly. Tightening the ratchet beyond its
limits can cause damage to internal gears and result in reduced protection.
Do not store equipment that is not explicitly authorized by MSA in or on the helmet. The storage of gloves,
wedges, lights, and other equipment in or on the helmet can dramatically change the protective capacity of
the helmet.
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death.
