Safety instructions
Please read the operating instructions before using the helmet.
Check that the front cover lens is fitted correctly. If it is not
possible to eliminate errors, you must stop using the cartridge.
Precautions & protective restrictions
During the welding process, heat and radiation are released,
which can cause damage to the eyes and skin. This product
offers protection for the eyes and face. When wearing the
helmet, your eyes are always protected against ultraviolet and
infrared radiation, regardless of the shade level. To protect the
rest of your body, appropriate protective clothing must also be
worn. In some circumstances, particles and substances released
by the welding process can trigger allergic skin reactions in
correspondingly predisposed persons. Materials that come into
contact with skin may cause allergic reactions to susceptible
persons. The protective welding helmet must only be used
for welding and grinding and not for other applications. Linde
assumes no liability when the welding helmet is used for
purposes other than intended or with disregard for the operating
instructions. The helmet is suitable for all established welding
procedures, excluding gas and laser welding. Please note the
recommended protection level in accordance with EN169 on
the cover. Scratched or damaged lenses must be replaced.
Sleep mode
The cartridge has an automatic switch-off function, which
increases the service life. If the light falls on the catridge for a
period of approx 10 minutes less than 1 Lux, it automatically
switches off. To reactivate the cartridge,it must be briefly exposed
to daylight. If the shade cartridge cannot be reactivated or does
not darken when the welding arc is ignited, the batteries must
be replaced.
Warranty & liability
Please see the instructions of the national sales organisation
of Linde for warranty provisions. For further information in this
respect, please contact your Linde dealer. Warranty is only
granted for material and manufacturing defects. In the case of
damage caused by improper use, unauthorised intervention or
through usage not intended by the manufacturer, the warranty
or liability are no longer valid. Likewise, liability and the warranty
are no longer valid if spare parts other than those sold by Linde
are used.
Expected Lifetime
The welding helmet has no expiration date. The product can
be used as long as no visible or invisible damage or functional
problems occur.
How to use (Quick Start Guide)
1. Head band. Adjust the upper adjusting band (p. 2) to the size
of your head. Push in the ratchet knob (p. 2) and turn until the
head band fits securely but without pressure.
2. Distance from eyes and helmet angle. By releasing the
locking knobs (p. 2 – 3), the distance between the cartridge
and the eyes can be adjusted. Adjust both sides equally and
do not tilt. Then tighten the locking knobs again. The helmet
angle can be adjusted using the rotary knob (p. 4).
3. Shade Level. The shade level can be changed by turing the knob
from shade level SL8 – SL12 according to standard EN 379.
4. Grinding mode. Press the Grind button (p. 4) to switch the
cartridge to grinding mode. In this mode the cartridge is
deactivated and remains in light mode shade level SL2.5.
The activated grinding mode is indicated by the red flashing
LED (p. 4) inside the helmet. To deactivate grinding mode,
press the Grind button level knob again. After 10 minutes,
the grinding mode is automatically reset.
5. Sensitivity. Use the sensitivity knob (p. 5) to set the
ambient light sensitivity. The position "Super High" is the
standard sensivity setting. By turning the knob, these can
be customized. In the "Super High" area the maximum light
sensitivity can be achieved.
6. Sensor slider. The sensor slider can be set to two different
positions. Depending on the position, the ambient light
detection angle is reduced (p. 5) or increased (p. 5).
7. Delay switch. The opening knob (Delay) (p. 5) allows to
select an opening delay from dark to light. The knob allows
infinite adjustment from dark to light between 0.05 to 1.0 s.
Cleaning
The shade cartridge and the front cover lens must be cleaned
with a soft cloth at regular intervals. No strong cleaning agents,
solvents, alcohol or cleaning agents containing scouring agent
must be used. Scratched or damaged lenses must be replaced.
Storage
The welding helmet must be stored at room temperature and at
low humidity. Storing the helmet in the original packaging will
increase the service life of the batteries.
Replacing the the front cover lens (p. 6 – 7)
Push in one side clip to release the front cover lens and then
remove it. Attach the new front cover lens to one side clip. Pull
the front cover lens round to the second side clip and clip in
place. This action requires some pressure to ensure that the
gasket on the front cover lens has the desired effect.
