Frequently Asked Questions - 140878 SILVERLINE

How to assemble the mesh visor and anti-noise helmet Silverline 140878?

Assemble by following the steps: insert the headband into the slots of the noise-cancelling cups, then position the visor onto the 3 pins and rotate the pins 180° to lock. Refer to the manual for pictures. Check the fastening before use.

How to adjust the helmet size for a comfortable fit?

Adjust the cup height in the headband slots, then adjust the top of the headband before putting on the helmet. Finally, use the rear knob to tighten or loosen the strap. Do not force at the end of travel.

What types of noise and projections does this product protect against?

The noise-cancelling helmet attenuates sounds according to EN352-1 with an SNR indicated in the chart. The visor protects against high-speed particles (low energy impact), suitable for chainsaw or brush cutter debris. It does not protect against liquids, molten metal, or radiation.

How to clean and maintain the visor and helmet?

Clean with warm water and mild soap, then dry with a soft cloth. Do not use solvents, alcohol, or abrasive products. Disinfect every 3 months. Store in a clean, dry place.

When should the helmet or visor be replaced?

Replace immediately if the helmet or visor is damaged (cracks, perforations, deformation). Damaged equipment reduces protection. The pads wear over time; inspect frequently.

Does this visor protect against chemical splashes or UV?

No. The instructions specify that this mesh visor does not protect against liquid splashes (including molten metal), hot solids, electrical hazards, infrared or ultraviolet. It is designed only for mechanical projections.

Is the helmet compatible with other Silverline visors?

The 140878 model comes with a specific visor. For other accessories, contact Silverline support. The headband and cups are standard, but the 3-pin attachment may be specific. Use only original parts.

Can I use this product with safety glasses?

Yes, the noise-cancelling helmet can be worn with glasses if they do not interfere with the fit. Ensure no gap reduces sound attenuation. The visor is placed over them.

Where to find the declaration of conformity and technical support?

The declaration of conformity is available on www.silverlinetools.fr. For technical questions, contact the manufacturer Toolstream Ltd. by phone at ([phone] or via the website.

What to do in case of skin reaction due to materials?

Some people may be allergic to materials in contact with the skin. If a reaction occurs, evacuate the area, remove the equipment, and consult a doctor. Clean the equipment before reuse.

For your own protection please read and thoroughly understand all safety instructions before use. Keep these instructions with the product for future reference. Ensure all people who use this product are fully acquainted with these safety instructions. The visor and ear defenders are for adult use only and do not provide unlimited face and ear protection.

WARNING: The visor and ear protectors are designed for your personal safety and must be worn

for the duration of the exposure to hazards.

Please ensure that visor and ear defenders are appropriate for intended use. Inspect before use to ensure products are in good condition and are not damaged in any way. Assemble all parts prior to fitting. Visor and ear defenders may be used in combination or individually. This equipment should be fitted, adjusted and maintained in accordance with these instructions.

WARNING: If the recommendations given in these instructions are not adhered to, the section afforded by this equipment will be severely impaired

The ear defenders are meant for ear protection but are not unbreakable. This mesh visor is meant for face protection against moderate impact hazards but is not unbreakable. Never alter or modify the ear defenders and visor. A damaged ear defender reduces protection and should be replaced immediately. Ear muffs, and in particular cushions, may deteriorate with use and should be examined at frequent intervals for cracking and leakage for example. The fitting of hygiene covers to the cushions may affect the acoustic performance of the ear muffs.

It is the responsibility of the user to acquaint themselves with the hazards to be encountered and select the correct level of ear protection for use in the hazardous area. A damaged visor reduces both protection and vision and should be replaced immediately. This visor does not have any filtering action and does not protect against molten metal splash, hot solids or electrical hazards.

The materials which come into contact with skin may cause allergic reactions to susceptible individuals. If a reaction occurs, leave the area and remove the visor and seek medical advice.

This product may be adversely affected by certain chemical substances. Further information should be sought from the manufacturer.

WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions and warnings on the use of this item during all es of exposure can reduce its effectiveness and could result in illness or disability.

WARNING: The mesh eye and face protector does not protect against liquid splash (including molten metal), hot solids, electrical hazards, infrared and ultra violet radiation. This mesh visor does not have any filtering action.

Intended Use

Provides protection when using electric, battery and petrol garden power tools, including chainsaws, strimmers, hedge cutters and lawn mowers that create high noise levels and may throw dust and debris towards the face of the operator.

Assembly and Fitting

1. Position the ear cups halfway on the headband slot (Image A) and turn the cups so the connector is in line with the slot (Image B) then pull off the headband
2. Locate the two slots for the headband (Image C) and carefully insert the headband (Image D)
3. Position the angled part of the headband so it is in the slots (Image E)
4. Refit the ear defender cups to the headband by positioning halfway in the headband slot and turning
5. Fit the mesh visor over the pins (Image F) then turn the pins at the far side of the visor 180° (Image G) and the centre pin to the top (Image H). Check it is secure and correctly positioned (Image I)

6. The forestry hat is now assembled (Images L & M) but adjustments must be made to ensure a good fit

7. The height of the ear defender cups can be adjusted in the headband slots for maximum sound attenuation and comfort

8. Adjustments to the top of the head strap are made prior to wearing (Image J). Correctly adjusted there should be no gap between the strap and the top of the head
9. The strap adjuster that sits on the rear of the head can be adjusted while fitted to the head (Image K). Turning clockwise will reduce the length of the strap and anti-clockwise will increase it. Do not force the knob when it has reached its minimum or maximum strap length

WARNING: These ear muffs are of 'medium size range'. Ear muffs complying with EN352-1 are of 'medium size range' or 'small size range' or 'large size range'. 'Medium size range' ear muffs will fit the majority of wearers. 'Small size range' or 'large size range' ear-muffs are designed to fit wearers for whom 'medium size range' ear muffs are not suitable.
