2. Setup and Installation
This section outlines the steps for replacing an existing visor on your Sealey SSP78 Full Face Shield with the new SSP78R visor.
2.1. Required Tools
- Sealey SSP78 Full Face Shield (frame)
- Sealey SSP78R Replacement Visor
- Clean, soft cloth (optional, for cleaning)
2.2. Installation Steps
- Prepare the Face Shield: Ensure the face shield frame is clean and free from debris. If replacing an old visor, carefully remove it by disengaging it from the mounting points on the frame. Note how the old visor was attached to assist with the new installation.
- Align the New Visor: Take the SSP78R replacement visor and align the mounting holes along its top edge with the corresponding attachment points on the SSP78 face shield frame.
- Secure the Visor: Gently press or slide the visor into place, ensuring each mounting hole engages securely with its respective pin or clip on the frame. Start from one side and work your way across, ensuring a snug fit.
- Verify Attachment: Once all mounting points are engaged, gently tug on the visor to confirm it is firmly attached to the frame and does not wobble. The visor should pivot smoothly if your face shield frame allows for it.
- Inspect for Obstructions: Check that the visor moves freely and does not obstruct your vision or interfere with any other components of the face shield.
3. Operating Instructions
The SSP78R visor functions as a protective barrier when attached to the Sealey SSP78 Full Face Shield. Always ensure the visor is properly installed and free from damage before use.
- Proper Positioning: When in use, ensure the face shield (with the SSP78R visor) is positioned correctly to cover your entire face, providing protection from impacts, splashes, and debris.
- Visibility: Maintain the cleanliness of the visor to ensure optimal visibility. Any scratches or significant damage can impair vision and reduce protective capabilities.
- Limitations: This visor is designed for general face protection. It is not intended for use as primary eye protection against specific hazards unless combined with appropriate safety glasses or goggles. Always refer to the safety guidelines for the complete SSP78 Full Face Shield.
4. Maintenance
Proper maintenance extends the life of your SSP78R visor and ensures continued protection.
4.1. Cleaning
- Gentle Cleaning: Clean the visor regularly with mild soap and water.
- Soft Cloth: Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid paper towels or rough materials that can scratch the visor.
- Avoid Chemicals: Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the visor material and coatings.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the visor thoroughly with clean water to remove all soap residue, then air dry or gently pat dry with a clean, soft cloth.
4.2. Storage
- Store the visor in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Avoid placing heavy objects on the visor to prevent deformation or scratches.
- If storing for extended periods, consider placing it in a protective bag or case to prevent dust and scratches.
