As a preventive measure, it is imperative to use the face protector throughout the course of the work or sports activities. For adequate protection, the face protector must be securely mounted on the helmet in order to offer maximum safety. The face protector must be adjusted to fit the wearer; it should be positioned in such a way as to minimize the intrusion of any external agents that could damage the eyes.

The protective material covered by this manual consist of hypoallergenic materials. However, some particularly sensitive users could have allergic reactions. In this case, it is recommended to discontinue use and, where appropriate, consult your doctor.

Repeat the operation on the other side. The two adapters are thus fixed to the helmet shell (fig. 2). 2_Hook the face protector to the support (WAC00010) by matching the three hooking teeth to the seats (fig. 3). Close the red levers inwards to lock the face protector (fig. 4). 3_Place the hooking branch of the face protector over the adapter (fig.5), hook it to the black side tooth of the adapter and align the two reference lines (fig.6). Now pull the slider outwards, press the face protector towards the helmet and release the slider to attach the face protector (fig.7). Repeat the operation on the other side. 4_To remove the face protector, place it in the UP position (fig.8), starting on one side, pull the slider on the face protector adapter outwards (fig. 7) and release it by pulling it towards the back of the helmet.
