Introduction
WARNING!
• This helmet provides limited top and lateral impact and penetration protection. It is designed to reduce the effect of an
impact or penetration blow, but cannot provide complete head protection from these occurrences. This helmet complies
with the ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014(R2019) for Type II and the CAN/CSA Z94.1-15 Standard for Type II Industrial
Protective Headwear and in most circumstances should be effective against small tools, bolts, rivets, sparks, and
similar hazards; however, some conditions can exceed this helmet's capacity to protect against serious injury or death.
Avoid areas where the chance of severe helmet impact or penetration exists.
• In order to provide maximum protection, the helmet must fit securely on the head and the headband must be adjusted to
a snug fit. Although this helmet meets the Passive Retention Test in the CAN/CSA Standard, some extreme conditions
such as high wind or helmet impact can dislodge the helmet from the head.
• The helmet provides limited electrical protection as outlined in the ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014(R2019) and CAN/CSAZ94.1-
15 Standards. Sample helmets are proof tested to 20,000 volts (RMS) for class E; but this should not be construed as a
safe contact voltage. Avoid areas where the chance of severe electrical shock exists.
• Discard the helmet after any impact or penetration. This helmet absorbs the energy of an impact by deforming and
crushing; and the damage may not be visible or readily apparent. A damaged helmet will not provide the degree of
protection originally designed into it. Never risk your life using a damaged helmet.
• Although it may provide limited head protection in the event of a fall, this helmet is not designed for fall protection.
• Never use this helmet for structural fire fighting because it does not meet the applicable NFPA Standard.
• Never use this helmet as a vehicular or sports helmet.
• Never store gloves, cigarettes, earplugs, etc., between the suspension and the shell liner. This space is needed when
the shell/suspension absorbs the energy of an impact. Objects in this space can transit large forces to the head and
neck, resulting in serious injury or death.
• Inspect the helmet before and after each use. Always follow the inspection procedure in this booklet. Replace any part
showing evidence of wear or damage.
• Never exceed useful service life guidelines of helmet as outlined in this booklet. Replace components or helmet as
required.
• Never alter or modify this helmet in any way. Use only MSA supplied or approved accessories with this helmet. It is
permissible to use pressure sensitive decals or Velcro on the helmet as long as (1) they are not closer than 1/2 inch from
the edge of the helmet and (2) they are compatible with the surface material and known not to affect adversely the
characteristics of the materials used in the helmet. Modifications or use of other than MSA accessories can reduce the
protection levels or dielectric properties designed into the helmet.
• Never use paint, solvents or hydrocarbon type cleaners (e.g. M.E.K., thinner, gasoline, kerosene) on this helmet. These
substances can damage the helmet materials in a manner which may not be visible to the user, causing the helmet to
fail. Certain paints contain solvents which can damage parts of the helmet assembly.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in serious personal injury or death.
