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 HAZ-
ARDS. 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.
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-darkening filter (ADF) before
use. Failure to use protective plates can result in irreparable
damage to the ADF and may cause serious and parmenent
injury, vision loss or burns. Damage to the lens from failure 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 com-
pletely 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 ensure maximum comfort and to
provide the largest field of vision.
• Select a suitable welding filter for the shield. Dimensions of
the filter: 110x110mm.
• Check the prescribed shade level for your welding application
and adjust your autodarkening filter accordingly (see the table
with recommended shade levels).
PRECAUTIONS
• Never place the helmet or the autodarkening welding filter on
hot surface.
• Scratched or damaged protection screens should be regularly
replaced by original JACKSON SAFETY
Before using the new protection screen, make sure to remove
any additional protection foil from both sides.

WARNING!
• Only use the WH70 BH3
-23°F to +131°F (-5°C to +55°C).
• Never expose the autodarkening welding filter to liquids and
always protect it from dirt.
• Only use original JACKSON SAFETY
doubt, please contact your JACSKON SAFETY
dealer.
• 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 WH70 BH3
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.
• Any welding helmet worn over standard ophthalmic spectacles
may transmit impact, thus create a hazard to the wearer.
• If the helmet and the protection screen both do not carry the B
marking, then only the S marking is valid.
• If protection against high speed particles at extreme tem-
peratures is required then selected eye-protector should be
marked with the letter T immediately after the impact letter.
If the impact letter is not followed by the letter T then eye
protector shall only be used against high speed particles at
replacement parts.
room temperature.

• A distance of at least 50cm, and never less than 25cm, be-
tween the welding arc and the welder eyes is recommended
for all welding applications.
