Unpacking

When unpacking, check to make sure all the parts are included. Refer to the Parts List and Assembly Diagram at the end of this manual. If any parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this manual as soon as possible.

The Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet is designed to protect the eyes and face from sparks, splatter, and harmful radiation under normal welding conditions. The Auto-Darkening Filter automatically changes from a clear state to a dark state when an arc is struck, and it returns to the clear state when welding stops.

The Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet comes ready for use. The only things you need to do before welding are to remove the protective film from both sides of the lens (if not already done), adjust the position of the headband, select the correct shade number for your application, and test the helmet for proper operation, as mentioned below.

BEFORE WELDING

Check the Front Cover Lens to makes sure that it is clean, and that no dirt is covering the two sensors on the front of the Filter Cartridge. Also check the Front/ Inside Cover Lens and the Front Lens Retaining Frame, and make sure that they are secure in place.

Inspect all operating parts before each use for signs of wear or damage. Any scratched, cracked, or pitted parts should be replaced immediately before using again to avoid severe personal injury.

Check for light tightness before each use.

Select the shade number you need for your setting at the turn of a shade knob (See Shade Guide Table on page 7). Finally, be sure that the shade number of the Welding Helmet is the correct shade number for your application. Note: If a selection of shades are recommended for your application, try the darkest setting first.

Adjust headband so that the helmet is seated on the head as low as possible and close to your face. Adjust helmet’s angle when in the lowered position by turning the adjustable limitation washer.

SHADE NUMBER SELECTION

The shade number can be infinitely set manually between 9 - 13. Check with the Shade Guide Table on page 8 to determine the proper shade number for your application. To select a shade number, simply turn the shade knob until the arrow points to the desired shade number.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Test the helmet auto-darkening filter lens before welding. While wearing the helmet, briefly strike an arc, keeping your face and eyes turned slightly away, and to one side. The lens should darken evenly when not directly facing the arc. If it does not darken properly, do not use the Welding Helmet.
