.Kevlar Helmets…
Inspect
Look over the helmet for cracks, chipped
paint and split or cut rubber edging. Also look
for loose or missing hardware on the webbing
and chin strap. Inspect the webbing bands for
tears or ripped stitching. If you find any prob-
lems, take it to unit maintenance for repair.
They can replace the webbing, chin strap and
hardware. If needed, they’ll attach a new head-
band to the webbing. They can also repair
minor cuts, pitting and chipped areas.
Clean
Dirt, dust, grease and grime. That’s your
helmet inside and out after a week in the
field. To clean it, all you need is warm
water, a cloth or stiff bristle brush and
some mild laundry detergent.
•
Take off the helmet cover, chinstrap and
headband.
•
Take out the webbing by removing the
six mounting screws that hold it in place.
•
Scrub them with warm water and deter-
gent. If you like, let them soak for 10 or 15
minutes before washing.
•
Rinse them thoroughly with clean, warm
water and let them air dry.
Clean the helmet shell the same way,
with warm water and detergent. Then rinse
it with clean water and let it air dry.
