UST/USTM Series Helmets User Manual
Get a Custom Fit with the U-Fit System Congratulations! Your helmet was designed with the U-Fit System, offering 12 custom comfort settings. Follow the instructions below to adjust the ride and balance of your helmet. 1. Try on your helmet and check the initial balance, fit, and comfort by rotating your head. 2. Remove the Ear Neck Protector to better see how to adjust the back of the helmet. 3. Pull the black colored “U Channel” (Figure 1) straight away from the black inner liner. There is one “U Channel” in the front of the helmet and one in the back of the helmet. 4. You can tailor the fit by adjusting the tabs, which control ride height, and posts, which control forward / backward / level balance. 5. Adjust the ride of your helmet. There are three tab positions on the “U Channel”: A, B, and C. Each of the tab positions affects the location of the ratchet by approximately one inch. For the lowest “ride” on your head, position the tabs to “A”. For a higher “ride”, position the tabs to “B” or “C”. 6. Adjust the balance of your helmet. There are two post positions, 1 and 2 on the black “U Channel”. Change the post position to adjust helmet balance. 7. Next, try the helmet back on your head to see if the adjustments to the back of the helmet were helpful. You may want to make another round of adjustments as described above to maximize the balance and fit. Typically firefighters don’t need to adjust the front of the helmet. If however, the adjustments to the rear of the helmet don’t meet your needs, you can work on the front of the helmet by first removing the browpad. As with the back of the helmet, you can adjust the height and post position on the U Channel piece. Keep in mind that the front of the helmet is a key interface to the SCBA, and most people prefer position C. 8. Lastly, when making your adjustments, re-install the Ear Neck Protector and Browpad, using your fingers to smooth the surfaces to avoid bunching. To size the Sure-Lock ® ratchet headband: 1. Turn the ratchet knob counterclockwise until headband is at largest size (Figure 3). 2. Place the helmet on your head and turn ratchet knob clockwise until headband is snug and comfortable. To raise or lower ReTrak Visor: Using either hand, grab visor finger tab, and pull visor down or push visor up into the desired position. To raise or lower faceshield: 1. Release tension knobs found on both sides of the helmet. 2. Tighten knobs once faceshield is in desired position.

After removal from the wearer, the helmet should be inspected for damage and soiling after each use. The helmet should be adjusted by means of the adjustment points provided to permit a proper fit that does not interfere with the SCBA while in use. These adjustments should be done prior to actual structural fire fighting activities. Helmets damaged or deteriorated beyond economical repair should be removed fromservice. Failure to follow these instructions could cause death or serious injury. � WARNING

Pre-Use Information Marking Recommendation and Restrictions:
WARNING Bullard helmets are constructed with high quality materials and workmanship. They are engineered to provide limited protection against head injuries, when properly adjusted for fit and whenwornbyfirefightersduringnormalfirefightingactivities.Theyarenotdesignedfordirectcontactwithflamesormoltenmetal,orforprotectionagainsthazardouschemicals,biological, or radiological agents. Contact of these fire helmets with live wires should be avoided. NEVER ALTER OR MODIFY the helmet’s design or construction without explicit written instructions from Bullard. Store helmets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Inspect your helmet and suspension system regularly, regardless of how often it is used. If you notice any sign of wear, damage, abuse, or environmental degradation, replace the shell and/or suspension immediately. If the helmet has sustained a forcible blow (impact), it must be replaced, even if there is no visible damage. Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or serious injury. Use only accessory equipment of the type included in the original helmet or approved by Bullard. Using unauthorized accessories may dramatically change the performance of the helmet. All helmet markings (e.g. front identification shields, title tapes, decals, retro-reflective trim, etc.) must either be supplied by a Bullard authorized fire service distributor or authorized for use in writing by Bullard. Allhelmetaccessories(e.g.flashlightbrackets,communicationsheadsets,etc.)mustbeeithersuppliedbyaBullardauthorizedfireservicedistributororauthorizedforuse inwritingbyBullard. Cleaning Remove ear/neck protector, and headband. Clean inner and outer shells with mild soap or detergent. Wash the ear/neck protector, headband, and brow pad in warm, soapy water and air dry at room temperature. Clean faceshields with mild detergent, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and dry with a soft cloth. Users should not wear helmets that are not thoroughly cleaned and dried. Contamination and Decontamination: Special precautionsmust be taken if your protective helmet becomes contaminatedwith chemical or biological hazardousmaterials. The guidance for these precautions should be coordinated with the appropriate (local, state, and federal) authorities having jurisdiction for hazardous materials (HAZMAT). Contaminated helmet ensembles should be isolated, contaminate(s) identified, and bodily contact should be avoided. Avoid spreading the contamination to interior spaces of buildings or vehicles, any living quarters, or personal belongings. If possible, seal the contaminated ensemble in a leak proof, sealable, air tight container. Disposal should be done in adherence to local, state, and federal laws. If the helmet is to be reused, it MUST be decontaminated before reuse. Decontamination should be performed using procedures established by decontamination professionals that will remove contaminate(s) while minimizing damage or compromise to the helmet. Failure to do so could result in increased risk of injury, illness, disease, or death.
