Information manual for the SAVAGE A40 welder protective helmets complying with Par. 1.4 of Appendix ll of the EC regula-
tions. The SAVAGE A40 welding helmets are high quality products that contribute to the comfort and safety of the welder.
SAVAGE A40 welding helmets may be used only in connection with arc welding. The chart below shows how to choose the
most suitable shade level:

Depending upon the application conditions, the next highest or next lowest protection level can be used.
The darker fields correspond to those areas in which the corresponding welding process cannot be used.
Information
SAVAGE A40 welding helmets afford reliable protection for the eyes whilst electric arc welding. They offer permanent protec-
tion against UV/IR rays, heat & sparks in any state from the clear to dark. The protection shades of the SAVAGE A40 welding
helmets have been chosen to avoid eye damage caused by the welding arc.
Do not look directly at welding rays with unprotected eyes when the arc strikes. This can cause a painful inflammation of the
cornea and irreparable damage to the lens of the eye leading to cataracts.
SAVAGE A40 welding helmets allow the welder to see the point of arc strike more precisely. This leads to a real time saving.
The helmet does not have to be flipped up and down during welding, both hands are kept free and because of the helmet's
light weight fatigue is reduced.
Replacing the Outer Spatter Lens:
Ensure that the helmet is always equipped with an Outside Lens (before the filter, on the outside of the helmet) and an Inner
Lens (behind the filter, inside the helmet). These protections lenses must be replaced if broken, damaged or covered with
welding spatter to such an extent that vision is impaired.
Inner & Outer Lenses are consumables and must be replaced regularly with certified ESAB spare parts (CE marked).
Before using the SAVAGE A40 helmet for the first time the protective films must be removed from the Front Spatter Lens
(drawing 1). The films cannot be removed from the Front Spatter Lens with the Lens in place. Please follow the instructions
below to remove the Spatter Lens.
