2. On the right side (as worn) of the visor housing, insert a replacement screw
through each of the two holes. Place the right-hand detent spacer on the
screws against underside of housing, followed by the right-hand upper track
and the right-hand lower track in that order. Set the housing aside with the
tracks and spacers facing upward so that the parts stay together.
NOTE
If nut plates are already installed, proceed to step 5. If the
visor assembly does not include nut plates, it is recommended
that you obtain nut plates or glue all four visor posts into the
helmet shell with five-minute epoxy to prevent the posts from
turning within the shell.
CAUTION
When completing step 3, ensure that 5-40 posts are used in
the nut plate; other sizes will not fit and may damage the plate
if forcing is attempted.
3. Bend the nut plate slightly to lift the prongs. Slide the post into the slot of nut
plate so that the prongs align with the slot on the head of the post. Repeat
for the other post.
4. Position the nut plate so that the flat side faces the underside of the shell.
Insert the posts upward through the track holes in the shell on the right side
of the helmet (as worn).
5. Holding the spacer and tracks against the housing, position them over the
posts. Tighten the screws into the posts for a snug (but not tight) hold.
6. On the left side (as worn) of the visor housing, apply Weldwood glue #281 or
equivalent to the first two threads of each replacement screw, and insert the
screws through the holes. Lift the left side of the visor housing just enough
to allow room to place the left-hand detent spacer and left-hand upper and
lower tracks on screws. Holding the spacer and tracks against the housing
as in the previous step, position them over the track holes on the left side of
the helmet shell. Insert the posts through nut plate and through the
underside of the helmet shell (on the left side as worn) as in steps 5 and 6.
Tighten the screws into posts.
7. Slide the outer visor into the upper tracks. Insert the visor key through the
housing slot (on either side as desired) and into the cutout in the visor; push
the key down and rotate it a quarter turn counterclockwise to lock it into
place. Place the washer and the visor lock over the visor key; tighten the
visor lock. Install and tighten the center screw of the visor lock. (The center
screw has a left-hand thread.)
