PRE-INSPECTION

Inspect your respirator before and after wearing. Do not

wear, and return to your supervisor if:

1. Headstraps are torn, cut, or have lost elasticity.

2 . Buckles or head cradle are missing, damaged or broken.

3 . Facepiece is cracked, torn, distorted, dirty, or has holes.

4 . Inhalation/Exhalation valves are missing, torn, damaged,

or not properly seated.

5. Cartridges are at the end of their service life, cracked,

damaged, or not properly seated.

FITTING

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Users must follow instructions each time respirator

is worn.

2. Federal or local regulations or your employer may

require that the user be fit tested. AS/NZS 1716

recommends fit testing.

3. Do not wear with any facial hair, such as beards,

which may prevent a proper fit.

4. If you cannot obtain a proper fit, do not enter the

contaminated area and see your supervisor.

Place respirator under the chin and pull the cradle

to the top of the head so

it rests on the crown.

Attach the bottom straps

behind the neck.

Adjust top and bottom of strap to

obtain a secure and comfortable fit.

Tighten by pulling on ends, or loosen

by pushing out on buckle tab.

Seal check your respirator each time

you enter a contaminated area.

USER SEAL CHECK

Read instructions on respirator bag.

Positive Pressure Seal Check:

Cover the exhalation valve vents,

and exhale gently to create a slight

positive pressure. If air leakage is

detected, re-adjust the position of the

facepiece, and the tension of both

headstraps, and repeat the seal check

until leakage is eliminated.

Negative Pressure Seal Check:

Cover both cartridges, and gently

inhale and hold your breath. The

facepiece should slightly collapse.

If air leakage is detected, re-adjust

the position of the facepiece, and

tension of both headstraps, and

repeat the seal check until leakage

is eliminated.

WARNING: If you cannot obtain a proper fit, do not enter

the contaminated area and see your supervisor.

FIT TESTS

A qualitative or quantitative fit test must be performed

before a respirator is assigned. Refer to current federal

or local regulations, or Australian Standards for complete

details.

Qualitative fit testing can be performed using bitrex

with appropriate cartridges or filters. Quantitative fit testing

can be performed with cartridges fitted with probes.

CARTRIDGES

CHEMICAL CARTRIDGE SERVICE LIFE

Leave contaminated area, and replace cartridges, if you

smell, taste, or feel any irritation, in your nose or throat.

from sealed bags. To attach cartridge to facepiece, press

firmly into opening until both surfaces are tightly sealed

together at all points. Check to see that it is seated properly,

both on the inside and the outside and flush against the

facepiece. Check the inhalation diaphragms for dirt or

damage and see that they are seated

DISKS/FILTERS

D I S K / F I LTER HOLDER A S S E M B LY
