SUITABLE ACCESSORIES AND SPARE PARTS

Only use original accessories and spare parts made by manufacturer.

Explanation of Dismantlement of Suspension

PE Suspension:
1-1 Press the hold arm of suspension outward as shown in Figure (4)

1-2 Rotate the hold arm of suspension either in clockwise or anti-clockwise direction as shown in Figure (5), until the hanger key of the hold arm is apart from the key slot as shown in Figure (6)
1-3 Dismantle other hold arms in accordance with the methods of 1-1, 1-2.
Suspension of Webbing Type:
2-1 Apply force toward the opening direction of the key slot of Type Y or Type U hanger key as shown in Figure (7) or Figure (9), to facilitate the hanger key to be apart from the key slot, as shown in Figure (8) or Figure (10) 2-2 Dismantle other hanger keys in accordance with the method of 2-1.

THE ELECTRICAL LIMITS FOR USE

Never modify or alter the safety helmet
Do not use this safety helmet against hazards other than those specified in the user instruction. Use, store and maintain the safety helmet in accordance with user instruction.
The electrically insulating helmet protects user against a short accidental contact with electric with electric leads under voltage which up to 1000V AC.
The electrically insulating helmet cannot be used alone and that it is necessary to use other insulating protective equipment according to the risks involved in the work.
Ageing or un-appropriate cleaning, limited effectiveness of insulation according to the conditions of use may have potential risk of loss of protection.

STORAGE

When not in use, it is recommended to store safety helmet in a clean and dry poly bag or case for optimum protection. For electrically insulating helmet, the conditions of storage are an important factor for the conservation of electrical and mechanical performance of insulating helmets.
Before first use and between successive uses the insulating helmets should be stored in a suitable box or container. They should not be compressed or stored close to any source of heat. It is recommended that the storage temperature is kept in the range (20±15) ℃.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Do not use any abrasive materials or solvents.
Clean any part of the safety helmet with warm soapy water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild disinfectant -can also be used, if required use in line with the manufacturer’s instructions.

DURATION OF USE

Inspect for damage regularly. If the shell or harness shows any signs of damage it must be replaced -immediately. The shelf life of this product, if stored and used correctly, is infinite. However, we would recommend it be changed every 2-3 years as necessary. Beside of above information, for electrically insulating helmet-

Before each use, a careful visual examination shall be made. If mechanical or chemical damages or slight cracking are detected, helmets should not be used. In case of doubt, the helmet shall be destroyed.
Check the electrical limits of the helmets correspond to the nominal voltage that it is likely to encounter during use.
Insulating helmets should not be used in situations where there is a risk which could partially reduce its insulating properties.
If the helmet becomes dirty or contaminated (oil, tar, paint…etc), particularly the external surface, it should be carefully cleaned on the outside in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

SUITABLE PACKAGING TYPE FOR TRANSPORTATION

During any transportation helmets should be protected from any form of contamination or damage by the use of suitable packaging. Transport in a manner that will prevent physical or chemical damage.
Suitable packaging for transport: Is recommended to put the helmet in their original packaging which consists in a poly-bag to avoid exposing to air, and with an outer-carton protecting helmet against colliding when transport.(Poly-bag + carton)
