SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- This user’s manual includes information on the operation of the equipment and the precautions to be followed for the user’s safety. Please read it carefully before first use and keep it in a safe place for future reference. These instructions must be read and understood before any operation.

Any damage to persons or property caused by use not in accordance with the instructions in this manual shall not be borne by the manufacturer. In the event of a problem or uncertainty, consult a qualified person to handle the product correctly.
- Use the welding helmet only for eye and face protection against harmful ultra violet and infrared radiation, sparks and spatter from welding.
- Never look directly at welding arcs without eye protection when the arc is initiated. Failure to do so may cause painful inflammation of the cornea and potentially irreversible damage to the lens which may result in cataracts.
- Look out! Danger of injury if a person wearing a mask and goggles is hit by particles thrown at high speed.
- The mask, filter and shields do not guarantee unlimited protection against major shocks or impacts, explosive mechanisms or corrosive liquids. Avoid welding or cutting in these severe environments.
- Do not weld or cut above his head with this mask.
- Move his face away from the smoky area. Use forced ventilation or local exhaust to remove smoke.
- Oxyacetylene, laser or gas welding and cutting is not permitted with this mask.
Before each use
- Carefully inspect the mask and its UV/IR filter.
- Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
- Replace filter lenses or face shields if they are cracked or scratched to prevent damage to the user’s eyes.
The headband can potentially cause allergies in sensitive individuals.
The operating temperatures of the optoelectronic filter are from -5°C to
+55°C.
The opto-electronic filter in the mask is not waterproof and will not function
properly if it has been in contact with water.
The welding mask must be moved carefully to avoid damage to the filter, guards
and/or protective shell.
Maintenance
- Do not place heavy objects or tools on or in the facepiece to avoid damage to the filter or face shields.
- Mask storage temperatures range from -10°C to +60°C.
- Clean the Optoelectronic Filter with a clean cotton or special lens cloth.
- Regularly clean and change the guard screens.
- Clean the inside and outside of the mask with a neutral detergent-disinfectant. Do not use solvents.
- Make sure that the sensors and cell are not obstructed by dust or debris.
- We recommend using the mask and visors for 5 years. The length of use depends on various factors such as type of use, cleaning, storage and maintenance.
BEFORE WELDING
- Check that the welding helmet is in good condition and adjust the headband.
- Check whether the front cover lens, the front frame and filter are inserted and fixed in place. In case of problems, please recondition.
- Make sure that the sensors (9) and the cell (8) are not obstructed by dust or debris.
- Make sure that the protection films on both screens are removed.
- Make sure that the red light (4) is off, otherwise change the batterie (11).
- Check that the protection level matches your welding processes. Please refer to the following chart to help your choice (cf. welding process board)

exposing the cell to the light between 20 to 30 minutes – Check and change
battery if necessary.
---|---
Check that the range 4-8 or 8-12 with the «WELD» button.
Filter stays dark after the weld arc is extinguished or when no arc is
present.| Check and clean detectors if needed.
Adjust sensitivity knob to the lower position (level 1). If the welding place is extremely bright, it is recommended to reduce light level.
Uncontrolled and sparkling switching: The filter lightens and darkens when
welding.| Check arc sensors are not blocked from direct access to the arc
light. Set the sensitivity level to 5.
Side of the filter is lighter than the center of viewing area.| It is a
natural feature of LCD’s, this symptom is not dangerous for the eyes. However
for a maximum comfort, try to keep an view angle at around 90°.
