The following is an example(EN379) :
4 9-13 SWG1 1 1 2/ EN379 CE/ / / / /
Dark shade DIN9-13
Never place the helmet or the filter on hot surface.
Use only within the temperature range of -10°C to+60°C.
Do not immerse the filter in water.(auto-dakening filter)
Do not expose the filter to liquids and protect it from dirt.
Regularly replace the cracked/scratched protection cover lens.If
this helmet doesn’t darken upon striking an arc,stop welding immedia-
tely and contact your supervisor or your dealer.
Auto-Darkening welding helmet is designed to protect the welders ey e s
from harmful radiation including visible light, ultraviolet radiation (UV) a n d

This welding helmet is suitable for all types of electro-weldings:covered ele-
ctrodes, MIG/MAG,TIG/WIG, pla sm a we ld in g, cu t ting a n d l a s e r w e ldin g
(only selected models with two shade ranges i.e.5-8 and 9-13), except for
gas welding.

keep the s olar c e l l s o f t h e f i l te r i n t he d a rk o r n o t exposed to light during
storage in order to maintain power down mode.This can be achieved by simply
placing the filter face down on the storage shelf.

If protection screens are in any way damaged,they must be immediately
replaced.
R e pl a c i n g E x te r n a l C o v e r L e n s : Remove filter holder by moving locks
toward center (Fig.1) and lift up the filter holder to remove/replace the
external cover lens.
R e pl a c i n g In te r n a l C o v e r L e n s : Place your fingernail in recess below
the cartridge of view window and flex lens upwards until it releases from
edges of the cartridge of view window.
C h a n ge t h e S h a d e C a r tr id ge : Remove filter holder assembly from helmet
shell (See Fig.1).Then flex top end of the filter holder to allow filter
cartridge to be removed from the frame.Install new filter c a r t r i dg e
into frame(See Fig.2). Make sure that the filter cartridge is inserted
holder correctly as shown and install filter holder assembly into helmet shell.
in filter
It is always necessary to keep the solar cells and the light sensors of the
filter free of dust and spatters:cleaning can be done with a soft tissue or
a cloth soaked in mild detergent (or alcohol).Never use aggressive
solvents such as acetone.

The sensitivity can be set at“HI”(High)or“LO”(Low)by using the infinitely
dial knob.(See Fig.7)
As a simple rule for optimum performance, it is recommended to set sensitivity
at the High at the beginning and then gradually reduce it, until the filterreacts only
to the welding light flashes and without annoying spurious triggering due to ambient
light conditions (direct sun, intensive artificial light, neighbori ng w el de r ’s
arcs etc.).
“HI”(High)-Most for welding applications but specially for low welding current
work.
“L O ” (L o w )- Only in some specific surrounding lighting conditions in order
to avoid unwanted triggering.
