First Base Bump Cap User Manual

First Base® Bump Cap

Bullard Gorra First Base®

Introduction

The FBBC line of First Base caps provides protection from minor bumps or scrapes to the head. The FBBC does not provide protection against impact or falling objects and should never be used instead of an industrial safety helmet.

WARNING

This bump cap is NOT a safety helmet. It is NOT for use as a baseball safety helmet or other sporting event equipment. Use of this bump cap in place of a safety helmet could result in death or serious injury.

Adjustment

Adjustment of the First Base cap is similar to any baseball cap. Simply lock the multiholed bar strap to the pinned strap at the required position (see Figure 1).

An optional foamed disc head spacer is supplied with each First Base cap for additional comfort and protection. The foam disc is easily fitted to the inside center of the Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) shell by using the self adhesive tape (see Figure 2).

NOTE

Unauthorized cap alterations are not recommended nor is the use of the inner shell with any other hat or cap. Combined use with any components other than those manufactured by Bullard could result in inferior performance.

Maintenance

– The cap shell should be checked each day before wearing to ensure that there are no major surface defects such as crazing, cracks, deep scour marks, discoloration, or dents to the inner (LDPE) shell. Particular attention should be given to the adjustment strap which guarantees secure attachment upon impact. Any defects to the cap, adjustment strap, or the inner (LDPE) protective shell must result in immediate disposal and total cap replacement.

– For optimum performance, ensure both the outer cap and inner shell are correctly maintained, cleaned, and free from defects.

– Do not apply tape, paint, solvents, adhesives, or self adhesive labels to the shell. Any such applications may reduce the effectiveness of the cap.

– Clean the (LDPE) shell with a mild soap and warm water only. The cap material should be brushed or wiped clean with a damp cloth. Do not use laundry detergents.
