Training
Please read carefully the Operating Instructions and the
servicing instructions. Familiarise thoroughly with the
controls and proper using of the appliance. You must know
how the appliance works and how controls can quickly be
switched off. Never let children work with the appliance.
Never let an adult person work with the appliance without
proper training. Do not let any persons, especially small
children and pets, to the place of your work. Be careful to
prevent slipping or falling.
Use as designated
The Automatik welding helmet has been approved
to be solely used for the following:
Head and eye protection when welding by these methods:
• Electrode welding
•
MIG Fe welding
•
MIG Al welding
• WIG welding
•
CO2 MAG welding
•
Tubular cord electrode welding
•
Plasma arc cutting
• Plasma arc welding
The Automatik welding helmet is not suitable for oxy-
acetylene welding, laser welding or welding works with a
too low number of amperes.
The appliance cannot be used for other works than those
for which it has been designed and which are specified in
these Operating Instructions.
Any other use will be considered a use in conflict with the
designation. The manufacturer will not be liable for any
consequential damage and injuries. Please be sure to
know that the appliance has not been designed for
industrial purposes.
Before using the appliance
Before using the fittings, please check whether all
components of the Automatik welding helmet have been
fitted properly.
Adjust the Automatik welding helmet considering the
comfortable and perfect use and the required dimensions.
Adjust the Automatik welding helmet bands using the bolt
on the back side and appropriate holes on the band
around head. The front part with the welding band must
remain centred on the forehead.
Insert the batteries included in the supply. Respect the
positive/negative pole.
Protective foils of the Automatik welding helmet must
necessarily be removed before using the appliance for the
first time; otherwise, auto darkening will not work properly.
The Automatik welding helmet must not be exposed to
impacts, must not fall on the floor and never be exposed to
excess temperatures.
Protection level selection
There are 5 protection levels (9 to 13) that can be adjusted
during the welding process using the external
potentiometer on the side of the helmet. After the welding
process is initiated, the helmet gets automatically dark.
Otherwise, please check whether the filter cassette has
been switched on properly. Please follow the darkening
instructions (pic. 3)
Sensitivity selection
Use the turning knob in the upper part of the filter cassette
to adjust the sensitivity. This will prevent the welding
process from being negatively affected by the change in
the lightness in the environment.
LOW
Recommended for welding works with a high number of
amperes and processes in an environment with intensive
light.
HIGH
Recommended for welding works with a low number of
amperes and processes in an environment with lack of
light. Also recommended for permanent soldering works,
e.g. TIG soldering.
Warranty
The warranty exclusively applies to material or
manufacturing defects. Original purchase voucher with the
purchase date must be provided for lodging a claim in the
