INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE
The mask must always be used to protect only the face and eyes during welding. It was, in fact, designed to guarantee maximum protection
during welding, to be easy to assemble, comfortable to wear and of top quality when used.
After using the mask and before putting it away after working, it must be checked to verify integrity and to eliminate any drops of molten metal

e mask must e stored in a way t at does not allow its dimensions to de orm permanently or its protecti e ision lter to reak.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
Clean and disinfect the mask using only water and soap, or if necessary products that do not contain solvents. Using chemical solvents ruins the
mask, and can totally reduce its integrity.
Taking good care of the mask reduces its obsolescence to a minimum, both as regards use and components.
