SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained

from repeated use) replace strict adherence to the tool safety rules.

If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious

personal injury.

WARNING! The welding mask does not protect against severe

impact hazards, explosions or corrosive liquids. Machine guards

or eye splash protection must be used when these hazards are

present.

WARNING! Using filter forms from any other manufacturer’s welding

mask can seriously impaired the protection provided and may result

in serious personal injury.

1. Use the correct tool for the job. This welding mask was designed for a

specific function. Do not modify or alter this welding mask or use it for

an unintended purpose.

2. Do not use the tool if any parts are damaged, broken or misplaced.

Repair or replace the parts.

3. This welding mask is not recommended for overhead welding

applications, laser welding or laser cutting applications.

4. In the event of electronic failure, the filter remains dark at Shade 15

to protect against UV and IR radiation.

5. Use the auto-darkening welding filter with inner and outer cover

lenses. Never open or tamper with the filter cartridge.

6. Ensure the front cover lens is mounted before use. Remove the

protective film.

7. Ensure that the lens is clean and there is no dirt or spatter covering

the four sensors at the front of the filter cartridge.

8. Inspect all parts for signs of wear or damage. Any scratched or

cracked parts should be replaced prior to use.

9. Never place the welding mask on a hot surface.

10. Arc rays can burn both eyes and skin. Arc welding produces intense

visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays. Wear a welding

mask fitted with the proper shade to protect your face and eyes

when welding or watching.

11. Check whether welding or grinding mode is chosen before use.

12. The reaction of the filter’s liquid crystal will be slower if the ambient

temperature is low, but it will not affect protective functions.

13. Replace the protective lenses immediately if broken or scratched. The

damage will obscure vision and reduce the filter’s protective

performance.

14. The welding hood included in this kit is flame-retardant. This welding

hood does not provide protection against molten metals.

UNPACKING

WARNING! Do not operate the tool if any part is missing. Replace

the missing part before operating. Failure to do so could result in
