USER INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

These Goggle Systems consist of an interchangeable protective lens that locks into the goggle frame with an adjustable headband. Depending upon the

model that you have received, there may be additional lenses that all provide 100% UV protection. For example:

Clear for indoor and nocturnal use

Solar for daytime use to cut glare

High-Contrast for low-light conditions

The adjustable head strap keeps goggles secure during rigorous activity. Depending on the model you have received - Desert Locust, Asian Locust™ or

Desert Locust Extreme Weather Goggle, a thermal lens, facial comfort foam, anti-reflective sleeve, microfiber cleaning pouch/cloth (ideal for cleaning

your lenses) and rugged storage case may also be included.

OPTIONAL PRESCRIPTION (Rx) CARRIER

If you require corrective lenses, an optional RxCarrier for prescriptions is available. You can provide the RxCarrier to your Optometrist who will insert

your prescription lenses into the RxCarrier. Revision also offers Rxfulfillment services for single vision prescription lenses to North American and APO

addresses. For information on ordering an RxCarrier and for fulfillment details visit: www.revisionmilitary.com.

WEAR OVER HELMET – STRAP ADJUSTMENT

To tighten the elastic head strap, move the slider clip on the strap to the left, adjusting until the system fits comfortably and snugly against your face. To

loosen, move the slider clip to the right.

CHANGING THE LENS

High-impact goggles require the lens to be held very securely within the goggle frame for best performance and for your protection. Do not be afraid to

apply force to the lens and put pressure on the flexible frame when removing or inserting the lens. Revision Goggles are built tough. They can take it.

REMOVING THE LENS FROM THE FRAME:

(If using an RxCarrier, remove the RxCarrier

and RxConnector prior to removing the lens.)

Grasp the center of the top of the frame with

your thumb and forefinger of one hand, and

the center bottom of the frame with the other

hand. Pull the frame from the top and bottom,

peeling it away from the lens.

Push the lens forward forcefully to

release it from the goggle frame.

INSTALLING THE LENS INTO THE FRAME:

Working from the front of the goggles, first

insert the right edge of the lens then the left

edge into the corresponding areas in the frame.

Continue to work the lens into the frame,

working from the outer edges across the top,

around the side and across the bottom, fitting

the keyhole notches securely over the posts.

The nosepiece will be the final area which is

secured.

When the lens is completely inserted,

ensure there are no gaps showing between

the lens and the frame.

Clean lens (see below) to remove

fingerprints and smudges.

REMOVING/FASTENING THE SIDE-CLIP:

To remove the side-clip:

First remove the lens from the frame. Next,

grasp the goggle frame with your thumb and

forefinger. Peel away the side clip from the top

of the frame.

Note: There is no reason to remove the side

clip except to install or remove the anti-

reflective sleeve.

To fasten the side-clip:

Grasp the goggle frame with your thumb

and forefinger. Align the grip warts on the

bottom of the frame to the holes on the

lower portion of the side clip. Next, align the

hole on the top of the frame with the posts

on the side clip and press into place.

INSERTING THE OPTIONAL PRESCRIPTION (Rx) CONNECTOR & CARRIER

To insert your Rx Carrier, first insert the Rx

Connector into the frame by fitting the keyhole

notches over the posts at the nose bridge. Be

sure that the soft bumper pad faces toward the

lens, away from the face.

Insert the RxCarrier into the RxConnector

by aligning the oval post at the center of the

RxCarrier with the oval hole on the Rx

Connector. Gently push the RxCarrier down

until it fits snugly into place.

CARE, CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

The lenses in your Goggle System include abrasion and fog resistant coatings. To extend the life of the lenses, clean and store your eyewear away from

direct sunlight and at room temperature when not in use. To clean and disinfect standard lenses, wash with lukewarm water and blot dry with a

microfiber cloth. If your kit includes Thermal Lenses - DO NOT wash the thermal lens under running water or by immersing into water. The seal between

ballistic lens and thermal film should stay dry. Clean and disinfect the Thermal Lens using a microfiber cloth to remove smudges and finger prints. To

clean and disinfect the goggle frame and strap, remove the lens and hand wash the goggle frame in a mild soapy solution, rinse and air-dry.

WARNING

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS BEFORE USING THIS EYEWEAR. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN

SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, INCLUDING BLINDNESS OR DEATH.

1. Do not use this eyewear until a snug and secure fit has been obtained. Assure that this eyewear fits securely at all times.

2. Do not make any modifications to this eyewear.

3. Do not use this eyewear for paintball, airsoft or simulation training. Impact from a paintball or similar training ammunition can cause permanent damage to your

eyes, even if you are wearing this eyewear.

4. Do not use this eyewear for protection against laser light unless using a laser specialty lens. Laser light can cause permanent damage to your eyes even if you

are wearing this eyewear.

5. Do not use goggles for chemical splash or chemical vapor exposure protection.

6. Do not use ammonia, alkaline cleaners, and abrasive cleaning compounds or solvents when cleaning eyewear lenses. Use of certain solvents may lower the

impact resistance of the eyewear.

7. Exposure to or contact with chemical vapors or liquids may cause surface cracks or other damage.

8. Materials that may come into contact with the wearer’s skin could cause allergic reactions to susceptible individuals.

9. Examine this eyewear frequently and replace it immediately if there is any sign of scratches (lenses) or damage.

10. Eye protection (such as this) against high speed particles worn over standard ophthalmic spectacles may transmit impacts, creating a hazard to the wearer.

11. If protection against high-speed particles at extremes of temperature (EN 166:2001 Section 7.3.4) is required then the selected eye-protector should be marked

with the letter T immediately after the impact letter, i.e. FT, BT or AT. If the impact letter is not followed by the letter T then the eye protector shall only be used

against high speed particles at room temperature.

12. Do not use this eyewear in an industrial setting without first referring to ANSI Z87.1 (in the United States) or EN 166 (in Europe), your supervisor, or a safety

specialist to insure that you are wearing proper protection. Some operations may require machine guards, goggles, face shields, special filter lenses or other

safety equipment.

13. Protective devices do not provide unlimited protection. Eye and face protective devices are not substitutes for machine guards and other engineering controls.

Personal eye and face protective devices alone should not be relied on to provide complete protection against hazards, but should be used in conjunction with

the machine guards, engineering controls, and sound manufacturing and personal safety practices.

14. This eyewear is not designed to protect the wearer from all injury in the event of an impact with a hard object or if the lens is not properly secured in the frame.

15. Revision does not recommend the following uses of tinted lenses: Night time driving or direct viewing of the sun or other artificial light source. Solar shields are

not recommended for industrial protection such as welding, brazing, or cutting operations. Vermillion lenses not suitable for driving.

16. Where the markings are not common to both the oculars and the frame then it is the lower level which shall be assigned to the complete eye-protector.
