4.1 Justering af hovedbøjle

Proper adjustment of the headband is crucial for comfort and stability during use.

Figure 4: Headband adjustment points.

1. Juster topstrop: Loosen or tighten the top strap to adjust the helmet's height on your head.
2. Width Knob: Rotate the knob at the back of the headband to adjust the circumference for a snug fit.
3. Angle Knob: Adjust the angle of the helmet relative to your face for optimal viewing og komfort.
4. Comfort Cushion: Ensure the comfort cushion rests properly against your forehead to reduce pressure points.

4.2 Batteriinstallation/-kontrol

The helmet is powered by a CR2450 lithium battery, supplemented by solar cells. Ensure the battery is correctly installed and functional.

1. Locate the battery compartment, typically on the auto-darkening filter cartridge.
2. Indsæt CR2450-batteriet med den korrekte polaritet.
3. Tryk på PRØVE button (1 in Figure 2) to verify the auto-darkening function. The lens should momentarily darken.
4. If the low battery light (2 in Figure 2) illuminates, replace the battery.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

The HT-111 helmet offers various adjustments to suit different welding and grinding tasks.

Figure 5: Clear view before welding and auto-darkening during welding.

5.1 Tænd/sluk

The auto-darkening filter is solar-powered and automatically activates when exposed to light. There is no manual on/off switch for the auto-darkening function itself.

5.2 Shade Control

The external shade control knob (8 in Figure 2) allows adjustment from DIN 4 (light state) to DIN 9-13 (dark state). Rotate the knob to select the appropriate shade level for your welding process.

5.3 Følsomhedsjustering

The sensitivity knob (3 in Figure 2) controls how easily the arc sensors detect the welding arc. Adjust it to prevent false darkening from ambient light or to ensure darkening in low-amp TIG svejsning.

5.4 Delay Time Adjustment

The delay time knob (4 in Figure 2) sets how long the lens remains dark after the welding arc ceases. A shorter delay is suitable for tack welding, while a longer delay is recommended for high-ampErage-svejsning for at beskytte øjnene mod efterglød.

5.5 Welding and Grind Modes

Figure 6: Multiple applications supported by the helmet.

The HT-111 helmet supports various applications:

• Svejsetilstand: For MIG, TIG, ARC (Stick), and other welding processes. The lens automatically darkens to the selected shade (DIN 9-13) upon arc ignition.
• Slibetilstand: For grinding operations. The lens remains in its light state (DIN 4) to provide clear vision while protecting against sparks and debris. Ensure the helmet is set to Grind Mode before starting grinding to prevent accidental darkening.

5.6 Shade Number Selection Guide

Refer to the table below for recommended shade numbers based on welding process and current (Amperes).

6. Vedligeholdelse

Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse sikrer din svejsehjelms lange levetid og korrekte funktion.

6.1 Rengøring

• Rengør hjelmskallen med en mild sæbeopløsning. Undgå skrappe opløsningsmidler.
• Wipe the auto-darkening filter and protection lenses with a soft, clean cloth. Do not use abrasive materials or cleaners that could scratch the lens.
• Keep the arc sensors clean and free from obstructions.

6.2 Replacing Outer Protection Board

The outer protection board protects the auto-darkening filter from spatter and scratches. Replace it when it becomes scratched or damaged to maintain clear vision.

1. Carefully remove the old protection board from its frame.
2. Insert a new outer protection board (one is included as an accessory) into the frame, ensuring it sits securely.

6.3 Replacing CR2450 Battery

When the low battery indicator illuminates, replace the CR2450 battery.

1. Locate the battery compartment on the auto-darkening filter.
2. Åbn rummet og fjern det gamle batteri.
3. Isæt et nyt CR2450-batteri, og sørg for at polariteten vender korrekt (+ siden opad).
4. Close the compartment and press the TEST button to confirm functionality.
