2. Veiligheidsinligting

Proper use and maintenance of these earmuffs are crucial for effective hearing protection. Failure to follow instructions may result in hearing damage.

• Always ensure earmuffs are worn correctly and fit snugly over the ears to achieve the stated Noise Reduction Rating (NRR).
• Inspect earmuffs regularly for damage, such as cracks in the earcups, worn-out cushions, or a loose headband. Replace damaged parts immediately.
• Clean earmuffs as instructed to maintain hygiene and performance.
• These earmuffs are designed to reduce noise exposure but do not eliminate all sound. Be aware of your surroundings, especially in situations requiring communication or awareness of warning signals.

3. Setup and Proper Fit

Achieving a proper seal around the ears is essential for maximum noise attenuation.

1. Verstel kopband: Hold the earmuffs by the earcups and pull the headband apart. Place the headband over your head.
2. Posisie Oorkoppe: Adjust the height of the earcups by sliding them up or down the headband until they completely cover your ears. Ensure your ears are fully enclosed within the soft cushions.
3. Kontroleer seël: The cushions should fit snugly against your head, creating a tight seal. No hair, glasses temples, or other objects should break this seal, as it will compromise noise reduction.
4. Geriefaanpassing: The earcup pivot points allow for tilting to conform to individual head shapes, enhancing comfort during prolonged use.

• Aansoek: Use in any environment where noise levels exceed safe limits, such as industrial settings, construction sites, shooting ranges, or during loud machinery operation.
• Deurlopende beskerming: Wear the earmuffs continuously while exposed to hazardous noise. Removing them even for short periods significantly reduces overall protection.
• Geraasvermindering: The earmuffs provide a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 31 dB, reducing the sound level reaching your ears by this amount when properly worn.

5. Onderhoud

Regular cleaning and inspection ensure optimal performance and hygiene.

• Skoonmaak: Clean the earcups and headband regularly with mild soap and water. Do not immerse the earmuffs in water. Wipe dry with a clean cloth.
• Cushion and Liner Replacement: The ear cushions and foam liners are replaceable. Inspect them periodically for wear, hardening, or damage. Replace them if they show signs of deterioration to maintain the acoustic seal and comfort. Replacement kits are available from authorized dealers.
• Berging: Store earmuffs in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
