7.4 Setting the safety level (Fig. 1+8)
• Set the appropriate darkening shade before the welding procedure (see the following
table). The darkening shade may be manually adjusted from 9 to 13 by twisting the dark-
ening regulator (2) on the outside of the helmet.
m ATTENTION! The darkening regulator (2) has the setting position "grind". If the dark-
ening regulator (9) is set to this position the automatic darkening is deactivated. Only use
this setting when you do not wish to use the welding helmet for welding. The automatic
darkening then is no longer active.
