TO REMOVE/REPLACE BASE PLATES
.
To remove, first remove the shield. Remove two screws from each base plate with a
2
flat blade screwdriver or small coin (1). Remove plates from helmet shell. Note the
right and left base plate for proper reinstallation, referring to the mark on it (2).
To replace, place base plate over the threaded screw receptacles in the helmet. Install
the two screws through each base plate into the helmet and screw them, but do not
fully tighten (3). Install shield as per previous instructions, lower the shield to fully
5
closed position (4) and press the front center of the shield to bring it against the
eyeport trim. While still pushing on the shield to keep a tight seal against the eyeport
trim, tighten the base plate screws (5) – but be careful not to overtighten, as the screws
may break. It may be necessary to do one side at a time, with a smoothing pressure
from the shield center toward each base plate and tightening one and then the other
for best results. Repeat for the other side.
Install the side pods as per previous instructions. Work the shield up and down to
confirm proper operation.
TO REMOVE/REPLACE CHEEK PADS
Emergency Release Tabs
This helmet has an emergency release system. The emergency release tabs allow
emergency medical technicians to smoothly remove the helmet's cheek pads in order
to assist in removal of the helmet from the head of an injured rider after an accident.
There are tabs between the shell and the cheek pads on each side of the helmet.
Emergency medical technicians can pull the tabs downward to remove the cheek pads.
WARNING:
The emergency release tabs are for use only by emergency medical technicians.
Never use the emergency release tabs for routine, everyday removal of the cheek pads.
Use of the emergency release tabs for routine removal may damage the cheek
pads and release tabs.
