Installation Guide
All our mounts are surface treated with Primer 3M™ 94 and equipped with 3M™ VHB™ 4991F double-sided tape, ensuring a reliable and long-lasting adhesion. We recommend following our detailed guide for a correct installation, as per 3M's recommendations.
Step 1
Before proceeding with the installation, check the placement of the mount by positioning it on the chin guard of your helmet, without removing the protective film. Position the mount so the "POV" logo is visibile from the right side of the helmet. Use the product photos on our website as a reference.
⚠️ Different sizes of the same helmet may result in some variations in position compared to the photos.
✅ Make sure that the chosen position allows the perfect adaptation of the 3M™ VHB™ adhesive.

Step 2
Carefully clean the surface of the helmet chosen for the mount. Use the two-step wipes kit included in the packaging.
⚠️ Dirt residues could compromise the adhesion of the mount to the helmet.
✅ Make sure to remove all traces of dirt.

Step 3
Remove the protective film from the 3M™ VHB™ adhesive. Heat the surface of the adhesive moderately with a heat gun or, alternatively, a hairdryer. Once sufficiently heated, the 3M™ tape will appear slightly opaque.
⚠️ Applying the adhesive while cold does not guarantee its perfect adaptation to the surface of the helmet.
✅ Heat the adhesive's surface moderately to soften it, obtaining an optimal fit with the chin guard of the helmet.

Step 4
Place the mount in the position chosen during Step 1. Once satisfied with the positioning, press firmly against the chin guard of the helmet for 1 minute.
⚠️ Once pressure has been applied, it will no longer be possible to reposition the mount.
✅ Place the mount lightly and, once satisfied with the position, apply pressure for 1 minute.

Step 5
Wait at least 24 hours before using the mount.
⚠️ Using the mount before the 24hrs period could compromise its adhesion to the helmet.
✅ Allow the adhesive to complete its setting time. You can regularly use your helmet during the 24 hour period without attaching your action camera.
