When using the equipment, a few safety precautions
must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
Please read the complete operating instructions and
safety regulations with due care. Keep this manual in
a safe place, so that the information is available at all

1. Safety regulations

Use the helmet only after it has been correctly
adjusted to ensure that it offers you full
protection.
Use only additional parts that have been
recommended by the manufacturer. Do not
modify the helmet in any way to facilitate the
installation of other accessories.
Keep the helmet away from liquids that contain
solvents or alcohol, such as sprays, coatings,
etc. These may damage the plastic. Apply labels
to the helmet only with water, acrylic or rubber-
based adhesives. The helmet must not be
painted or coated.
Impacts and blows may cause damage to the
helmet that cannot be seen from the outside (for
example hairline cracks). In such cases the
helmet may not provide full protection. Replace
the helmet immediately after it has been
subjected to any great stresses.
Use the ear protectors for as long as the noise
level is high. It will only provide full protection if it
is worn throughout such noise.
Each time before you use the helmet and the
accessories, examine them for signs of damage
such as cracks, ruptures, chafing, etc. Use the
helmet and accessories only if they are in perfect
condition.
The eye and face guard does not protect against
splashes of liquid (including liquid metals), hot
solid objects, risks of electric shock, infrared
radiation and UV radiation.
