Warning!
Automatic darkening lters shall only be used in
conjunction with a suitable backing ocular.
Warning!
If the symbols F and B are not common to both the ocular
and the frame then it is the lower level which shall be
assigned to the complete eye-protector.
Warning!
Materials which may come into contact with wearer’s skin
could cause allergic reactions to susceptible individuals.
Warning!
Scratched or damaged oculars should be replaced.
Warning!
Eye-protectors against high speed particles worn over
standard ophthalmic spectacles may transmit impacts,
thus creating a hazard to the wearer.
Note
If protection against high speed particles at extremes of
temperature is required then the selected eye-protector
should be marked with the letter T immediately after the
impact letter. 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.
INTRODUCTION
The product “welding maskAS-X /AS-R /AS-XP /AS-
XL” includes 2 photo sensors implanted at eye level in the
automaticdarkening lter.This lter darkens orlightens
automatically depending on the level of light induced.
The lter is transparent before soldering that the way
that the user can observe clearly the surface of the work
area.Whenthesolderarcenergizes,thelterwilldarken
immediately.Whenthearcisnished,thelterwillbecome
transparent once again.
Thetimethatistakesfortheltertogofromtransparent
to dark is extremely fast: 0.00004 seconds.
Filter protection is adjustable in a way that the user can select
thelevelofprotectionbetweendegrees9to13(EN379).
The lter gives the user complete and permanent
protection from inferred and ultraviolet radiation even in
transparent mode.
Thelterhasaspecialpositionforgrinding.Inthisposition
thelterdoesn´tdarkwiththesparksofananglegrinder.
The level of protection against radiations IR/UV is
permanently set at 13 degrees.
Thelterincludes2supercialremovabletransparenthigh
weight molecular polymer protectors which are resistant
to particle sticking, and excessive use.
The unit is power via integrated solar cells in a way that
the user does not have to change batteries or turn on nor
o󰀨theunit.
The GS-0 welding mask includes a permanent dark crystal
lterDIN11.

6. USER INSTUCTIONS
6.1. Adjusting the mask to the user.
Inthe modelsAS-X /AS-XP/AS-1D.Adjustments may
varydotodi󰀨erentsizesofusershead.Tocorrectlyadjust
the equipment to individual users, follow the proceeding
instructions.
1. Adjust the height of the head: Adjust the upper band
ofthe harness (8),adjustthe length ofthe band so
that it sits on the head in a way that the eyes are at the
heightofthelterwiththemaskperpendiculartothe
horizon and the harness is parallel to the horizon.
2. Adjustment of the perimeter to the head: Adjust the
adjustmentknob(10)bypushingandturninguntilthe
harness sits comfortably without too much slack or too
much pressure.
3. Adjust the angle of vision: Loosen screws (13),
Liftandturntheworkangleadjustmentdeck(9)ina
way that the upper part of the mask is in its working
position (stopper of the harness resting in the stopper
ofthedeck(9))anangleof10ºto15ºtowardsthe
face of the user.
6.2. Adjusting protection angle
Adjustknob(4)usingthefollowingtablebasedinUNEEN
379:2004/A1:2010.
These tables are valid for mid class work conditions where
the distance between the operators eyes and the base of
the molten metal is approximately 50 cm and the middle
brightness is around 100 lx.
TheAS-XL model has a range selector with three positions:
1. Shade range DIN 5-9.
2. Shade range DIN 9-13.
3. Grinding without shadow.
Select according to welding type. Generally, work in the
range 9-13 except for low intensity work such as low
intensityTIGorsoftamewelding.
Grinding mode: in this mode the lter does not darken
avoid losing vision when used as a protector against
sparks projections.
In the AS-XL model: Set knob 4 according to the following
table based on UNE EN 379: 2009-07.
These tables are valid for average working conditions,
where the distance from the observer’s eye to the molten
metal bath is approximately 50 cm and the average
illumination is about 100 lx.
The use of a degree of protection higher does
not necessarily proportion more protection
and obligates the user to close in on the
radiant source and breath harmful fumes.
It’s possible to use lters with one more
degree of protection when working in open
air where there is a strong natural illumination.
6.3. Adjusting sensibility (AS-1D/AS-X/AS-XP/AS-XL)
This regulation, labeled “SENSIVITY” (nº 15) calibrates
theminimumlightintensityneededfordarkeningthelter.
Adjustment is continuous form minimum to maximum
butthree standardposition (min, mediumand max)are
explained.
1. Min.(LO)Usedwhenisusedclosetoanotherwelders
arcs. The purpose is to avoid not desired darkening
ofthelterwhenotherweldershaveestablishedtheir
welding arc. Complementary to this use case is the
situation of high amperage welding.
2. Medium.Thisis thestandard and initiallyrecommended
position for medium amperages and / or sunlight
conditions.
3. Max.(HI)Foruseincoveredandaloneweldingwith
no interference with another welder’s arcs.
Complementary is the situation of low amperage
welding in no sunlight presence. Staring to sunlight
canredarkeningwhenlterisatmaximumsensibility.
It is recommended to start adjustment at mid position
adjusting until the adequate adjustment is obtained.
6.4 Adjusting wait time (AS-1D/AS-X/AS-XP/AS-XL)
Thisregulationisnamed“DELAY”(nº16)andsetsthetime
elapsed between the end of welding arc and the return to
clearstate ofthe weldinglter.Two limituse casesare
described, Min and Max positions.
1. Max. For using at high amperage welding with very
bright welding pool. In this case is desirable a slight
cool of pool before enable eye to see.
2. Min. In low amperage, quick cooled, situations were
immediate control is desired.
Initial position recommended is central one.
It is recommended to start adjustment at mid position
adjusting until the adequate adjustment is obtained.
6.5. Setting grinding
Youcanadjustyourmask(AS-X/AS-R/AS-XP/AS-XL)
as work either welding or grinding.
1. ToenablethemaskgrindingAS-X/AS-R/AS-XP/
AS-XL just put the controller in position 17 GRIND.
TousetheGS-0maskingrindingoperations,liftthexed
lteruntilitstops.
Never leave the knob 17 in the grinding position.
Risk of glare if welded.

8. INSPECTION
Before each use, mandatorily inspect the equipment. Do
not use the equipment if it does not comply with any of the
following circumstances. Any component not valid should
be replaced immediately.
The harness to the head is clean, complete and adjusts
perfectly to the head.
The helmet is clean, complete and does not present any
type of crack.
The lters should be complete with no embedded
projection chips or cracks, including the protection lenses.
Thelter mustcover completely isslot inaway theno
type of light passes through.
The photo sensors must be visible under any circumstance
and not covered by any particles.
The lter should not be used if it has exceeded its
expiration date. Verify that 2 years have not passed
fromthetraceabilitycode.Checktherstfourcharacters
(startingfromtheleft)inthecodemarkedoninteriorpart
oftheautomaticdarkeninglter.Firsttwoaretheyearand
second ones are the week.
Make sure that the automatic lter doesn’t fails and
darkens immediately after the welding arc appears. If not,
reject it from using and contact your dealer immediately.
Don’t test directly with a welding arc for security.
Recommended procedure is:
1. Touse a cigarette lighter for testing automatic lter.
Onlywiththesparkstheltermustimmediatelydarken
in any position of the sensitivity control 15.
2. To face the welding mask against the direct sun light
andverifythatlterdarkens.Increaserstsensitivity
control 15 between medium and high.
Always test before use!
Sensorsoftheautomaticdarkeningltershouldbekept
clean and unobscured.
