Frequently Asked Questions - Hand Mask GYS

What is the difference between a passive welding mask and an automatic mask?

The Hand Mask is a passive mask: the shade is fixed (light shade 0 or dark shade 11 depending on the filter). It does not darken automatically like an LCD mask.

What welding processes can I use with this mask?

This mask is suitable for MMA, MIG/MAG, TIG, air arc gouging, plasma cutting and plasma welding. It is prohibited for oxyacetylene, laser or gas welding.

Can I weld overhead with this mask?

No, it is not recommended to weld or cut above your head with this mask for safety reasons.

How do I replace the filter or the outer protective screen?

First remove the protective film from the new screen before placing it. Immediately replace worn or damaged parts. Do not use any tool to remove parts from the mask.

What is the service life of this mask?

The recommended service life is 5 years, but it depends on use, cleaning, storage and maintenance. Check the condition before each use.

Does the mask protect against impacts?

The mask and protective screens do not guarantee unlimited protection against major shocks or impacts, explosive mechanisms or corrosive liquids.

How do I choose the shade level for my welding?

Refer to the welding processes table in the manual. For example, for MMA between 100 and 175 A, use shade 11 (dark shade).

What if the UV/IR filter does not darken during welding?

Immediately stop welding and consult the manual. Check that the filter is not obstructed or damaged.

Is the mask under warranty?

USER MANUAL Hand Mask GYS

This user's manual includes information on the operation of the equipment and the precautions to be followed for the user's safety.

In the event of a problem or uncertainty, consult a qualified person to handle the product correctly.

Use the welding helmet only for eye and face protection against harmful ultra violet and infrared radiation, sparks and spatter from welding.

Never look directly at welding arcs without eye protection when the arc is initiated. Failure to do so may cause painful inflammation of the cornea and potentially irreversible damage to the lens which may result in cataracts.

Look out! Danger of injury if a person wearing a mask and goggles is hit by particles thrown at high speed.

The mask, filter and shields do not guarantee unlimited protection against major shocks or impacts, explosive mechanisms or corrosive liquids. Avoid welding or cutting in these severe environments.
