(fig. 3) Start at one side, push the pin upwards and control
that the lip is fastened in the lower visor frame. (fig. 4).
• Push along the face seal frame so it is securely fastened on
the lower visor frame (fig. 5). Control that the pin and lip is
fastened on both sides (fig. 4).
• Fit the lower visor frame to the helmet by sliding it into
position. A 'click' indicates that it is locked in position
(fig. 7a-7d).
• Attach the hooks in the head harness (fig. 8).
