How to use

Before each use, inspect the visor for deep scratches, cracks or other damage that could impair protection or visibility. Attach the visor to compatible 3M headgear following the headgear manufacturer’s mounting instructions, ensuring secure engagement points and correct orientation. Position the visor to cover the face fully from forehead to chin while allowing a clear sightline. Clean the visor with a soft cloth and a mild detergent or manufacturer-recommended cleaner; avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the anti-scratch surface. Replace the visor if it shows signs of significant wear, deformation or impact damage.

Recommendations

Use the visor together with appropriate eye and respiratory protection when tasks involve hazardous dust, chemical vapours or high-velocity impacts beyond the visor’s intended capability. Store the visor in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve the anti-scratch surface and optical clarity.
