Helmet Adjustment

The helmet must be adjusted to the size of the user's head to ensure adequate protection. Size range with
Fas-Trac III harness: 52 cm to 63 cm.
(1) Push top crown strap towards top of helmet.
(2) Place helmet on head and push down until a comfortable wearing height is reached.
(3) To ensure that headbands are compatible with head height and to get the preferred upward vision
(change of vision angle), adjust the helmet wearing height if necessary by repositioning the headband
clips within the suspensions. →
(4) When the helmet is on the head, adjust the horizontal position of the helmet by sliding the headband
clips along the headband to ensure the face shield correctly fits over corrective spectacles worn
underneath.→ Figure 2
(5) The helmet must be worn with the peak facing forward.
2.2 Eye or Face Protector Adjustment
(1) Lower the visor.→
(2) Tilt the over spectacles towards the face for an optimal fit. →
NOTE: The over spectacles are delivered with a rubber seal fitted. If the over spectacles will be used without
the seal, the impact performance will be decreased to F (45 m/s).
(3) To raise the face shield, pull the visor slightly towards the face first, then push the visor up with one
hand placed centrally on the visor bill. →
3 Care
3.1 Inspection
Before and after each use, inspect the shell, face shield, suspension and lining for breakage, cracks, craze
pattern, discoloration, chalky appearance, or any other unusual condition. If any of these conditions exist,
replace the helmet immediately, as these conditions can indicate that the helmet has lost its capacity to
protect from impact, penetration, and/or electrical shock.
3.2 Cleaning and Disinfection
Helmet and Face shield
Helmets and face shields must be cleaned regularly for easy inspection and to help the wearer avoid skin
irritations. Use soapy water and a soft cloth. (Do not use detergent, solvent based products or abrasive
materials).
