4. Grinding Control/Variable Shade Control / Sensitivity Control /Delay
Control/Test Button
1)Welding/Grinding Switch: when grinding, please choose Grinding switch. For other
body parts helmet can not protect, please wear other safety products for protection.
When welding,the MODE switch has two position. When the switch is turned into the
position of 9-13, the shade knob adjustment area is during shade 9- shade 13. When
the switch is turned into the position of 4-8, the shade knob adjustment area is during
shade 4 - shade 8.
2)Shade Knob- before welding. Please adjust the shade knob to correspond the shade
mode switch, so as to choose a proper shade no.(shade 4-13) based on welding
process and welding amperage. If the shade of filter is too darkening or too light,
please adjust the Shade Knob slightly to correct position till the eyes can see the
welding spot which is not glaring and can see welding molten pool.

Please kindly note that it will damage the eyes if using welding helmet under incorrect
shade no.(too darkening or too light) for a long time.
3) Sensitivity Knob: Before welding, please adjust the sensitivity to high position, if
encountering the interference of Lighting lamp(the filter is darkening while not
welding), please adjust the sensitivity towards low position slightly until the filter
returns to light state (please don’t make the helmet towards to light lamp source
during this process, should towards to welding workpiece). During welding, the
sensitivity knob should be adjusted as high as possible, or it will affect the darkening
speed of filter. Attention: Operator must stop using the helmet immediately and
contact with the dealer in time if the filter can not be darkening or the darkening speed
is slow or the filter is flash.
Attention: If the filter can not be darkening or the darkening shade is not enough or
the darkening speed is slow or the filter is flash, for such abnormal work, please find
the reason immediately. If operator can not solve the problem, please must stop using
the helmet immediately and contact with the dealer in time.
4) Delay time Knob -- It can adjust the switching time of filter from dark state to light
state, avoid the damage to eyes from the residual arc of welding molten pool due to
too fast switching time to light state when welding is end (Break arc). The delay time
vary from 0.3s to 0.9s. The switching time may vary due to different welding types
and different sensitivity setting even delay time handle is at the same position. If the
filter is flash under low current welding, please adjust the delay time handle to long
position, this can help to solve this problem.

5) Test button
It can test if the lithium battery is with power and if the filter is under normal work. If
the battery indicator is lightening (red) and the filter can be darkening when pressing
down test button, it means the filter is under normal work. If the battery indicator is
not lightening or the light is very weak, please replace the lithium batteries, the type
of battery is CR2450, QTY of battery is 1pc. If the battery indicator is lightening but
the filter is not darkening, it means there is some problem with the filter, please don’t
use this filter anymore.
5. ADJUSTING HEADGEAR
1) Top head band To move the Head Band in the direction of arrow (as picture) to
adjust the depth of headband. According to user’s head shape adjust to a suitable
position.
2) Distance of Harness from filter lens To adjust the distance from the welder’s eyes
to filter lens (left-right Symmetrical adjustment).
3) Back of headband To adjust the size of headband (loose or tighten) .

4) Incline angle adjustment To adjust the incline angle of helmet relative to the
welder’s face, and adjust the height of welder’s eyes relative to filter lens.
. This model is designed & equipped with a special turnover (up & down) headband
mechanism. When welder turns over the helmet to welder’s head top, the headband
mechanism makes helmet’s gravity center to be more lower, and be coincided with the
center of welder’s head. The design of welding helmet greatly lowers the fatigue of
welder’s head ( & neck ) and make welder feel more comfortable than before while at
working.
. Headband has been set unevenly and there is an uneven distance from the eyes to the
filter's lens (Reset headband to reduce the difference to filter.
