General Safety Rules

WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
Keep your work area clean and tidy. Untidy
workplaces and workbenches increase the risk of
accidents and injuries.
As the welding helmet is solar operated, sufficient
light at the workstation must be ensured.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should
be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
The device and packaging are not toys.
Comply with the local injury prevention regulations
and safety regulations in the work area.
Please note that permissible uses for the tool could
be limited by national regulations.
Do not use accessories which are not specifically de-
signed and recommended by the tool manufacturer.
The product is not suitable for laser welding.
The product is not fireproof.
The welding helmet and the ADF filter must not be
exposed to heat or moisture.
Under no circumstances should the housing of the
ADF filter be opened without the manufacturer's
permission.
Check whether the correct setting has been selected
before each use.
Repairs and works specified in these Instructions
may only be performed by qualified authorised staff.
Stop the work process at once and contact the retai-
ler immediately if the filter does not automatically
darken during welding.
Do not use any alcohol, petrol or thinners to clean
the ADF filter.Do not place the ADF filter in water.
Replace the ADF filter housing immediately if it is da-
maged or scratched. This has a negative effect both
on visibility and on the protective performance.
Mineral-filter-reinforced viewing panels may be
installed only together with suitable rear panels.
If the viewing panel and the supporting body do not
have the same mechanical marking (F/B), the weaker
marking applies for the whole product..
Clean the surfaces of the helmet, ADF filter, sensor
and solar cells regularly.
The welding helmet cannot withstand any damage
caused by a significant impact, explosion or corrosi-
ve liquids.
The service life depends on many factors which
vary on a case-by-case basis, such as use, cleaning,
storage and maintenance. Regular inspections and
replacement in the event of damage are recommen-
ded. We recommend a maximum usage duration of
five years.
The material the product is made from will age over
time. This may, for example, lead to the formation of
breaks on the welding helmet. As a result of damage
of this kind, the welding helmet is no longer capable
of providing effective protection. In this case, the
user should replace the welding helmet immediately.
This product may not be used for overhead welding
work. If this product is used for overhead welding
work, drops of molten metal may burn through the
ADF filter and cause injuries to the user
If the filter is defective, the user must stop using the
welding helmet immediately.
This product is temperature-resistant and of low
flammability. If, nonetheless, it comes into direct
contact with an open flame or a very hot object, the
welding helmet may catch fire or melt. Store and use
the welding helmet strictly as described, to reduce
such risks.
The ADF filter is an electronic device, which is not
waterproof. Ensure that it is kept dry and clean. Do
not store the ADF filter in a moist environment.
Check the filter before each use. As soon as the
function and appearance no longer appear to be in
the intended condition, you can no longer use the
product.
