3 - USE AND ADJUSTMENTS

3.1 - INTRODUCTION

- Any improper use not in compliance with the reference standards shall make the user solely responsible for any personal harm and invalidate the warranty conditions.

- Warning that the protection intended to be provided by the helmet can only be ensured when it is properly assembled and correctly fitted, and that any removable part shall not be worn separately.

- In order to provide adequate protection, this hardhat must be adjusted to the head size of the user.

- The hardhat has been designed to absorb the energy of an impact by destroying or partially damaging the cap and the harness; even if this damage may not immedi-ately be visible, any hardhat that has been subjected to strong impact must be replaced.

- For your own safety it is advisable to familiarise yourself with the adjustment systems before using the hardhat. Make several adjustments and fasten and unfasten the retention system several times so that these actions become instinctive.

3.2 - HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT (See Figure 6)

Adjust the hardhat in height by changing the depth of the suspension mesh as follows:

Release the rear tabs of the mesh fastened with Velcro and slide them in the slots on the harness.

3.3 - CIRCUMFERENCE ADJUST-MENT

(See Figures 7-8)

IMPORTANTThe hardhat is supplied with the size adjustment band fully extended.For proper adjustment follow the sequence described below.

- Put on the hardhat and then adjust the size using the wheel (1).

- For optimal adjustment it is advisable to push down on the hardhat with one hand and then make the adjustment with the other hand.

- The size adjustment system also acts on the anti-creep system.

- Pull the two straps (2) that join the chin-strap to the adjustment system only during the first adjustment.
