Inhalation Hazard

Welding Produces TOxIC FUMES and GASSES.

Exposure to welding gasses can increase the risk of developing certain

cancers, such as cancer of the larynx and lung cancer.

Also, some

diseases that may be linked to exposure to welding gasses or fumes are:

Early onset of Parkinson’s Disease

Heart Disease

Damage to the reproductive organs

Ulcers

Inflammation of the small intestine or stomach

Kidney damage

Respiratory diseases such as emphysema, bronchitis or pneumonia

Safety precautions, such as using natural or forced air ventilation and

wearing a NIOSH-approved respirator, are ESSENTIAL to reduce the risk
of developing the above illnesses.

Maintain the helmet and lens correctly to help ensure reliable protection.

• Clean filter’s surfaces regularly. Always keep sensors and solar cells clean using

a clean lint-free tissue/cloth. Don’t use any solvents on filter’s screen or helmet
components. Protect filter from liquid and dirt contact. Don’t immerse the filter in
water.

• Should the Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet not darken upon striking an arc,

stop welding immediately and have the helmet checked by an authorized service
technician.

• Regularly replace the Front Lens Cover (1) if it becomes cracked, scratched,

pitted, or otherwise damaged.

• Don’t make any modifications to either the Auto-Darkening Filter (2) or the rest of

the helmet, other than those specified in this manual. Don’t use any replacement
parts other than those specified in this manual. Unauthorized modifications and
replacement parts will void the warranty and expose the user to the risk of personal
injury.

Never open or tamper with the Auto-Darkening Filter (2).
