LIMITATIONS OF USE
Only use with original 3M spare parts and accessories
listed in the reference leaflet and within the usage
conditions given in the Technical Specifications.
The use of substitute components, decals, paint or other
modifications not specified in these user instructions
might seriously impair protection and may invalidate
claims under the warranty or cause the product to
be noncompliant with protection classifications and
approvals.
Eye protectors worn over
spectacles may transmit impacts thus creating a hazard
to the wearer.
The Speedglas 9100 MP Welding & Safety Helmet is not
designed for overhead welding/cutting operations when
there is a risk of burns from falling molten metal.
The SideWindows should be covered with the cover
plates in situations when other welders are working
beside you and in situations where reflected light can
pass through the SideWindows (see fig K:1-K:2)
Materials which may come into contact with the wearer's
skin are not known to cause allergic reactions to the
majority of individuals.
These products do not contain components made from
natural rubber latex.
Do not use for respiratory protection against unknown
atmospheric contaminants or when concentrations of
contaminants are unknown or immediately dangerous to
life or health (IDLH).
Do not use in atmospheres containing less than 19.5%
oxygen (3M definition. Individual countries may apply
their own limits on oxygen deficiency. Seek advice if in
doubt).
Do not use these products in oxygen or oxygen-enriched
atmospheres.
Leave the contaminated area immediately if: Any part
of the system becomes damaged, airflow into the
headtop decreases or stops, breathing becomes difficult,
dizziness or other distress occurs, you smell or taste
contaminants or irritation occurs.
High winds above 2m/s, or very high work rates (where
the pressure within the headtop can become negative)
can reduce protection. Adjust equipment as appropriate
or consider an alternative form of respiratory protective
device.
Users should be clean-shaven where the respirator's
face seal comes into contact with the face.
This product meets the requirement of certain industrial
eyewear standards and certain industrial head protection
standards. They do not provide complete head, eye
and face protection from severe impact and penetration
and are not a substitute for good safety practice and
engineering controls.
The safety helmet is made to absorb the energy of a
blow by partial destruction or damage to the shell and
the harness, and even though such damage may not be
readily apparent, any helmet subjected to severe impact
should be replaced.
When working in cold environments the 52 30 01 antifog
visor plate shall be used due to risk of fogging.
Do not use in high heat environments above the
recommended maximum temperature.
