5. ADJUSTING HEADGEAR (Picture 4):
Headgear Top: Adjusting for proper depth to ensure correct balance and stability.
Headgear Tightness: Pressing the adjusting knob located on the back of the headgear and turn left or
right to a desired tightness.
Headgear Distance: Adjusting the distance between the face and the lens by loosening both outside
tension knobs and press inward to free from adjustment slots.
Move forward or back to desired position and retighten.
Headgear Angle: Four pins on the right side of the headgear top provide adjustment to the forward tilt
of the helmet. Loosen the right outside tension knob then lift on the control arm tab and move to the
desired position. Retighten tension adjustment knob.
NOTE: Make sure both sides are equally positioned for proper operation.
6. BERNER AUTOMATIC HELMET - FILTER FUNCTIONS:
6-1. SELECTING THE OPERATING MODE (Picture 5-7):
Grind Mode: Used for metal grinding applications.
ln this mode the shade function is turned off. The shade is fixed in the light state and offers a clear
view and face protection to grind a weld.
Grind mode is intended for grinding, not for welding.
Before restarting welding, the knob must be set back to „Weld" position.
6-2. SELECTING SHADE LEVEL (Picture 3):
Berner automatic helmet Standard offers shade adjustment range 9–13.
Berner automatic helmet Premium has two shade ranges, shade 5-8 and shade 9-13. Adjusting the
"5–8 / 9-13" range knob defines the range which is being used.
Selected shade number must match the welding process procedures. Shade number can be selected
by turning the adjustment knob on the side of the helmet. The shade setting is indicated by the arrow
on the switch.
6-3. SELECTING DELAY TIME (Picture 6):
Time from dark to light state can be varied by the infinitely delay time nob.
MAX 1.0 second: Most welding applications, especially for high amperage(current).
MIN 0.1second: Spot welding applications.
Longer delay can also be used in order to prevent the filter from opening when the light path to the
sensors is temporarily obstructed by a hand, torch, etc.
6-4. SELECTING SENSITIVITY (Picture 7):
Sensitivity can be set at HI (High) or LO (Low) by using the infinitely dial knob.
For optimum performance, set sensitivity at HI (High).
Hl (High): Most welding applications, especially for low welding current.
LO (Low): Only in specific lighting conditions in order to avoid unwanted triggering.
