Bullard H3000 User Instructions

USER INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for choosing a Bullard fire helmet. Fire helmets are a part of personal
protective equipment and help to protect you from head injuries. Read all
instructions and warnings before adjusting and using your helmet.
WARNING
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN
SERIOUS OR EVEN FATAL INJURY.
HEAD SIZES AND WEIGHT
The H3000 covers all head sizes from 52–62 cm.
The total weight of the helmet without attachments is approximately 1,165
grams.
ADJUSTING FOR HEAD SIZE WITH THE
SURE-LOCK RATCHET.
®
Turn the ratchet on the back of the headband fully counterclockwise (Fig. 1).
Put the fire helmet on and turn the ratchet clockwise until the fire helmet fits
comfortably but tightly.
VERTICALLY ADJUSTING THE FIRE HELMET
There are four catches on the headband adapters for connecting to four black
fastening pins on the inner lining (Fig. 2). To adjust the headband higher or
lower, simply press the catches firmly onto the black pins according to the
desired setting. The fire helmet gives you even more vertical adjustment options
by letting you change the position of the headband adapters.

VISOR MOUNTING, PROTECTIVE PERFORMANCE,
REPLACEMENT
The visor has an adjusting screw on each of the right and left sides, which can
be used to lock the visor in place. The visor assembly itself screws into the
adapter and is released by pressing on the two locking tabs. The visor serves
as face protection with limitations in the case of extreme temperatures and flying
particles. It is recommended to remove the visor during an inside attack.
The performance of the visor has been tested in the temperature range from
-40° to +60°C. Components not marked "BT" should not be used under extreme
temperatures.
Visors with blistering, cracks, melting, severe scratches, or deformation must be
replaced.
