2.3 Instalacija/provjera baterije

The Savage A41 uses a CR2450 battery. While a battery is typically included, it's good practice to check its installation.

• Locate the battery compartment, usually on the inside of the auto-darkening filter (ADF) unit.
• Ensure the CR2450 battery is correctly inserted with the positive (+) side facing up.
• The helmet is solar-assisted, but the battery is crucial for low-light conditions and initial arc detection.

3. Uputstvo za upotrebu

Familiarize yourself with the digital interface and controls to effectively use your Savage A41 welding helmet.

3.1 Powering On/Off and Digital Interface

The helmet automatically powers on when exposed to light. The digital interface allows for precise control over welding parameters.

• Podešavanje nijanse: Use the digital buttons to select the appropriate shade level (typically 9-13 for welding, 4 for grind mode). The multi-color LED display will show the selected shade.
• Kontrola osjetljivosti: Adjust the sensitivity to detect the welding arc. Higher sensitivity is suitable for low amperage TIG welding, while lower sensitivity prevents false triggering from ambient light.
• Kontrola kašnjenja: Set the delay time for the lens to return to its light state after the arc extinguishes. A longer delay is useful for high amperage welding to prevent eye fatigue from afterglow.
