2. Precaucions de seguretat
Always observe the following safety precautions to prevent personal injury and equipment damage:
- Protecció ocular: The auto-darkening filter (ADF) is designed to protect against harmful UV/IR radiation even in the light state. However, direct exposure to welding arc without the helmet in the dark state can cause severe eye damage.
- Protecció contra impactes: This helmet is not designed for impact protection against severe hazards such as grinding wheels or explosive devices. Always wear appropriate primary eye protection (safety glasses) underneath the helmet.
- Exposició a la calor: Do not place the helmet on hot surfaces.
- Manteniment: Do not modify the helmet or the auto-darkening filter. Use only genuine replacement parts.
- Interval de temperatura: Operate the helmet within the specified temperature range of -5°C to 55°C (23°F to 131°F).

5. Instruccions de funcionament
Understand the controls and modes for effective welding and grinding.
5.1 Auto-Darkening Filter (ADF) Controls
Image 4: Controls for Delay, Shade, and Sensitivity on the auto-darkening filter.
- Control de sensibilitat: Adjusts the sensitivity of the arc sensors to ambient light conditions. Turn to 'HI' for weak arcs (e.g., low amperage TIG) or 'LO' for strong arcs (e.g., high amperage MIG/ARC) to prevent false triggering.
- Control de retard: Adjusts the time it takes for the lens to return from dark to light state after welding. A shorter delay ('MIN') is suitable for tack welding, while a longer delay ('MAX') is recommended for high amperage welding to reduce eye fatigue.
- Control de l'ombra: Sets the darkness level of the filter.
- Mode de mòlta: DIN 4 (Light state for grinding).
- Cut Mode: DIN 5-9.
- Weld Mode: DIN 9-13 (Adjust according to welding process and ampera).
5.2 Font d'alimentació
The helmet is powered by a combination of solar energy and a replaceable CR2450 lithium battery. The solar panel charges the battery during use, extending its lifespan. A 'Low Battery' indicator will illuminate when the battery needs replacement.
5.3 Aplicacions
