Product Usage Instructions

IMPORTANT: Even under ideal conditions, an accident can happen, and a minor impact at speeds less than 13 miles per hour can cause serious head injuries. Therefore, it is essential to wear a helmet for protection. However, please note that no helmet can protect the user against all impacts. This full face helmet only offers protection to the chin when the flip up is closed. Always drive with a closed flip up and a closed visor!

DON’T MISTREAT YOUR HELMET: Never ride with the helmet hanging from the helmet holder, sit on it, or throw it around. Mistreating the helmet in such ways can damage the shell and shock absorbing liner, reducing its ability to protect you in an accident.

DON’T TAMPER WITH THE HELMET: Do not make any modifications to the helmet, and never drill holes in the shell or cut the inner liner. These actions can seriously weaken the helmet.

HELMETS ARE DESIGNED TO ABSORB ONE IMPACT: A helmet only works once. After it has protected you from a major impact, you must replace it. Even if there is no visible damage, an impact or fall could seriously impair the safety of the helmet. Never wear a helmet that has sustained any sort of impact. It is important to purchase a new helmet in such cases.

IMPORTANT

• Even under ideal conditions, an accident can happen, a minor impact at speeds less than 13 miles per hour can cause serious head injuries.
• Common sense dictates that you need protection. No helmet can protect the user against all impacts. This full face helmet only offers protection to the chin when the flip up is closed. Always drive with a closed flip up and a closed visor!

ENSURING PROPER FIT

A helmet should be snug but not too tight, once it is seated on your head tighten the chin strap, position it well back against your throat it should be tight enough so that you cannot place your fingers between the strap and your throat, but breathing and swallowing should not be impaired. Once securely fastened, move the helmet side to side, then up and down to ensure that your skin movement is the same as that of the helmet, if it slips at all try a smaller size. Attempt to roll the helmet off your head by firmly pulling upward on the rear of the helmet. You should not be able to remove a correctly fitting helmet in this manner.

BEFORE YOU SET OUT

Always check the face shield screws on both sides of the helmet before riding, it can be very dangerous if these parts come loose during riding. If necessary tighten them. Never ride with a shield open. Do not use a tinted face shield when riding at night or in other conditions of poor visibility. Always fasten your chin strap before heading out. REMEMBER: helmets reduce your ability to hear sounds, especially at night speeds.

Sudden temperature variations can cause unexpected misting of your shield and loss of visibility. Be aware of how your perception of trail conditions is affected.

CARING FOR YOUR HELMET

Your helmet may be damaged and rendered ineffective by petroleum and petrochemical products, cleaning agents, paints, adhesives etc. Without the damage being visible to the user. Use only the following materials to clean your helmet: mild soap and water and automotive wax or polish for the outer shell.

It is a good idea to keep your helmet in a secure place when you are not using it. Visors should not be excessively cold when they are being refitted otherwise they may crack.
