F 130
Using the helmet
The SCHUBERTH F 130 fi refi ghter helmet is approved for a head size
range of 53–62 cm.
Size adjustment
The helmet can be adjusted to the respective head
size by sliding the two ends of the head support
ring (A) and locking the studs (B) fi rmly into the
appropriate holes (C). When required, for example
when wearing a balaclava under the helmet, the
quick-adjustment option allows you to create more
space (see also "Using the helmet with a full-face
mask with harness").
Adjusting the wearing height
The inner netting (affecting helmet height!) can be adjusted by sliding the two rear
net retainers. Having been released from the guide buckles
(E), the net retainer (D) can then be set to the required
wearing height and fastened accordingly by buttoning into
the holes of the guide buckles (E). Please make sure the
studs are fi rmly pressed into place.
Adjusting the chin-neck strap
Opening and closing the chinstrap is made easy by the quick-release button
fastener on it. Grip the helmet with both hands by the chin-neck strap, then pull the
helmet over your head from the front and close the chin strap by means of the
quick-release button fastener. The neck strap must fi t fi rmly under the ears and
around the back of your head. The length of the neck straps can be adjusted by
means of the buckle. Ensure the chinstrap fi ts fl ush under your chin. If necessary,
the length of the chinstrap can be adjusted and fi xed in place at the Velcro
mechanism.

Important! The F 130 satisfi es the requirements of EN 443:2008 on the retaining
system if the chinstrap supplied by the manufacturer is worn and adjusted
according to the provisions.

enable use with a full-face mask with strap harness. By releasing the button at the
second hole on the right-hand side of the headband and pulling the headband strap
accordingly you can quickly and individually adjust the helmet width to enable you
to wear a full-face mask with strap harness in combination with the helmet.
