Applications:
The Speedglas 9100 MP Welding & Safety Helmet together with 9100
Series Welding Filters are designed for most welding processes, such
as MMA, MIG/MAG, TIG, plasma welding and oxyacetylene
welding/cutting.
The Speedglas 9100 MP Welding & Safety Helmet is excellent for
welding preparations such as grinding thanks to the large clear
viewing area. The Speedglas 9100 Welding & Safety Helmet is
designed to be used with 3M Air Delivery Units. See appropriate
reference leaflet for approved combinations.

Operating instructions:
Adjust the Speedglas 9100 MP Welding Helmet according to your
individual requirements to reach the highest comfort and protection.
(see fig B:1 - B:3).
Adjust and fit the air delivery unit as outlined in the appropriate User
Instruction. Adjust the face seal to suit the shape of the face. (see fig
G:7) If needed, lift the visor and adjust the airflow deflector. When fully
opened, more airflow is directed across the face. When partially
closed, a portion of the air is directed towards the visor. (see fig H:1)
It is important that the face seal is correctly mounted and fitted
to provide the correct protection factor. Do not remove the welding
helmet or turn off the air supply until you have vacated the
contaminated area.
Headtops used in aggressive environments or outside in direct
sunlight may need to be replaced more frequently than headtops used
occasionally indoors.
3M recommends a maximum life (shelf-life plus in-use life) of 3
years from the date of manufacture when stored in accordance with
the recommended storage conditions for the head protection part
(helmet).
Note: date of manufacture is molded on the helmet plastic part.
When working in environments with intense light radiation that
gives heat, environments with welding spatter or when high visibility is
required, 3M Speedglas Safety Helmet Cover shall be used.
Limitations of use:
Only use with original 3M spare parts and accessories listed in
the reference leaflet
and within the usage conditions given in the Technical Specifications.
The use of substitute components, decals, paint or other
modifications not specified in these user instructions might seriously
impair protection and may invalidate claims under the warranty or
cause the product to be noncompliant with protection classifications
and approvals.

Eye protectors worn over standard ophthalmic spectacles may
transmit impacts thus creating a hazard to the wearer.
The Speedglas 9100 MP Welding & Safety Helmet is not
designed for heavy duty overhead welding/cutting operations due to
the risk of burns from falling molten metal.
The SideWindows should be covered with the cover plates in
situations when other welders are working beside you and in
situations where reflected light can pass through the SideWindows
(see fig K:1-K:2)
Materials which may come into contact with the wearer’s skin
are not known to cause allergic reactions to the majority of individuals.
These products do not contain components made from natural
rubber latex.
Do not use for respiratory protection against unknown
atmospheric contaminants or when concentrations of contaminants
are unknown or immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH).
Do not use in atmospheres containing less than 19.5% oxygen
(3M definition. Individual countries may apply their own limits on
oxygen deficiency. Seek advice if in doubt).
Do not use these products in oxygen or oxygen-enriched
atmospheres.
Leave the contaminated area immediately if: Any part of the
system becomes damaged, airflow into the headtop decreases or
stops, breathing becomes difficult, dizziness or other distress occurs,
you smell or taste contaminants or irritation occurs.
High winds above 2m/s, or very high work rates (where the
pressure within the headtop can become negative) can reduce
protection. Adjust equipment as appropriate or consider an alternative
form of respiratory protective device.
Users should be clean-shaven where the respirator’s face seal
comes into contact with the face.
This product meets the requirement of certain industrial eyewear
standards and certain industrial head protection standards. They do
not provide complete head, eye and face protection from severe
impact and penetration and are not a substitute for good safety
practice and engineering controls.
The safety helmet is made to absorb the energy of a blow by
partial destruction or damage to the shell and the harness, and even
though such damage may not be readily apparent, any helmet
subjected to severe impact should be replaced.
When working in cold environments an antifog visor plate shall
be used due to risk of fogging.
Do not use in high heat environments above the recommended
maximum temperature.
