BEFORE YOU USE YOUR AFX HELMET

Thank you for purchasing an AFX helmet. Your AFX helmet was designed

for years of comfortable use. If you follow the advice here you should be

able to get the most enjoyment out of you new helmet.

following instructions for its use and care. Failure to read and

warnings could result in the helmet not protecting you in case of an

IMPORTANT

WEARING YOUR AFX HELMET

While no helmet can protect the user against all possible forms of

impact, the following safety instructions will help you get the maximum

benet and protection from your helmet.

1. To protect you as it is designed to do, your helmet must be the

correct tted size; too big or too small may not be safe. A properly

tted helmet, with the chinstrap fastened securely, will have a snug but

comfortable t. You will feel an even pressure all over your head, with

no gaps. The helmet must not be so loose that it can rotate freely front

or back so that it could be removed with the chinstrap fastened.

2. The chinstrap must be securely fastened at all times do not ride with

the chinstrap not fastened correctly. Make sure it remains snug at all

times, except when you take it off of course.

3. Do not modify your helmet in any way and never attach anything

to your helmet with screws or any type of adhesive. To preserve the

integrity and effectiveness of your helmet, do not alter its internal or

external structure in any way.

AFX HELMET CONSTRUCTION

what’s left of your hair) you may have forgotten to put your helmet on.

Please stop riding immediately and put your helmet on. Further, the

helmet must t properly and be securely fastened on your head.

PROPER FITTING OF YOUR AFX HELMET

HELMETS SIZING CHART

Determine the circumference of the widest part of your head by using

a exible tape measure. Generally, the widest part of a person’s head

is the area 2.5cm (1”) above the eyes and ears. However, we suggest

measuring at a few points both above and below that line to determine

the greatest measurement before referring to our size tables. We also

suggest testing the t of a helmet one size smaller and one size larger

then what the chart recommends. No helmet can provide protection if

it’s too uncomfortable to wear.

Helmets must t snugly, but not painfully tight. While holding the chin-

straps outside of the helmet, pull it down over your head, taking care

that the chinstraps do not go up inside the helmet. A proper-tting

helmet will feel snug with fairly even pressure around the sides and top

of your head. On most modern helmets the liner is designed to be a

little extra snug at rst, but will break-in after several hours of riding to

match the particular shape of your head.

If you are not familiar with how a helmet should t and feel, be sure to

ask for assistance from a more experienced rider, or the retail store

where you purchased your helmet. As a rule, the helmet should not

be able to move around on your head without pulling on your skin. A

loose tting helmet is not only dangerous, but may also be noisy and

tiring to wear. Most people make the mistake of buying a helmet that’s

too large. IMPORTANT: Make sure that you fasten the chinstrap securely

beneath your chin when trying-on a helmet and then test to see that

the helmet cannot be removed from your head when fastened in that

manner. The helmet must not be so loose that it can rotate freely front

or back so that it could be removed with the chinstrap fastened

No helmet can protect the wearer against all possible or foreseeable

impacts. A helmet can only protect the portion of the head that is

covered by the helmet. For maximum protection, the helmet must be

well tted with the chinstrap securely fastened. Failure to follow these

instructions, the instructions printed on the helmet, and those contained

in the owner’s manual may result in the possibility of the helmet com-

ing off during an accident - possibly resulting in a severe head injury or

even death. While riding motorcycles, scooters, ATVs and snowmobiles

is fun, it can also be a dangerous pastime. At AFX, we encourage you

to enjoy riding responsibly, and to always ride within the limits of your

abilities.

CHIN STRAP RETENTION SYSTEM: DOUBLE D-RING

IMPORTANT: Make sure that you always fasten the chinstrap securely

beneath your chin when wearing your helmet. Before you ride test to

see that the helmet cannot be removed from your head when fastened

in that manner.

The helmet must not be worn or fastened so loose that it can rotate freely

front or back so that it could be removed from your head with the

chinstrap correctly fastened.

To securely fasten the double D-ring retention system, thread the end of

the chin strap through the D-rings only as shown in the diagram below.

The strap must be threaded through both d-rings, then separate the

d-rings and thread the strap back between both rings. If done correctly

the end of the strap will be away from your face and outside of the

portion of the strap that touches your neck.

Please refer to the diagrams to make sure you have done up the strap

correctly, and as always do not ride with the chinstrap not done up in

the correct illustrated manner.

If this helmet is equipped with a strap keeper, either a snap or a strap

band you can use it to secure the loose end of the strap to keep it from

apping while riding. This strap keeper is not part of the retention system

and is only designed to keep the extra length of strap in place. Do not

use it as a substitute for the helmets double d-ring retention system.

To remove the chinstrap, reverse the fastening process as shown in the

diagram below. Always make sure to inspect your chinstrap either

before or after every ride, if your chinstrap shows any signs of wear the

helmet should be replaced immediately. Never ride with a helmet that

has worn, damaged, or missing chinstraps. Make no modication to the

chinstrap in anyway.

CHIN STRAP RETENTION SYSTEM: DOUBLE D-RING

Please make sure that the chinstrap is

always fastened as instructed above.

Failure to do so may result in fatal injury or

possible death.

INTERIOR: CHEEK PADS & COMFORT LINER

AFX helmet liners and cheek pads are made with a hypoallergenic

and anti-microbial nylon, most of which are removable and washable.

The size of this helmet is based on a combination of four factors: outer

shell size, inner EPS thickness, comfort liner thickness, and cheek

pad thickness. The t of the helmet can be customized by replacing

your existing cheek pads with thinner cheek pads (for a looser t), or

thicker cheek pads (for a tighter t). The t can also be customized by

replacing your existing comfort liner with a thinner comfort liner (for a

looser t), or thicker comfort liner (for a tighter t).

Please refer to the shell, liner and cheek pad compatibility chart

below, keep in mind these components can only be replaced inside

the group of sizes contained in each size range block.

And if you choose to take advantage of the ability to custom t your

helmet please keep in mind the instructions container earlier in the

proper tting guide.
