result in leakage, overexposure, sickness or death.
3M™ Filter Adapter 603 Assembly and 5N11 or 5P71 Filter Attachment
1. Align notch on edge of 603 adapter with facepiece mark as shown (Fig. 20).
2. Turn adapter 1/4 turn clockwise to stop. To remove adapter, turn 1/4 turn counterclockwise (Fig. 21).
3. Place filter into 501 retainer with filter printing facing towards the 603 adapter. Snap together and ensure the filter seal is free from creases or gaps
(Fig. 22)
.
In Brazil, the 5935BR Filter used with the 603 adaptor is assembled following the same procedures as the 5N11 and 5P71.
3M™ Supplied Air Systems
To meet the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) requirement for minimum (4 CFM/115 lpm)
and maximum (15 CFM/424 lpm) air flow, the air control valves approved for use with the 3M™ Half Facepiece Respirators
6000 Series must be operated within the correct supply pressure ranges and hose lengths. Failure to do so may result in
sickness or death.
In Brazil, the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (ABNT) NBR 14372 requires a minimum of 120 lpm and
maximum of 280 lpm air flow for breathing air for half and full facepiece respirators.
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 requires that employers provide breathing air which shall "meet at least the requirements of the
specification for Grade D breathing air as described in Compressed Gas Association Commodity specification G-7.1-1997"
in the United States. In Canada, breathing air systems must be supplied air which meets at least the requirements of CSA
Standard Z180.1. Failure to do so may result in sickness or death.
In Brazil, breathing air systems must be supplied with air which meets ANSI Z86.1-1989/CGA G-7.1, Grade D breathing air.
Assembly of 3M™ Dual Airline Breathing Tubes
1. Hold the facepiece in front of you so that the 3M logo is facing you. Align the two branches of the breathing tube over the two bayonet mounts on
facepiece. For the 3M™ Breathing Tubes SA-1500 or SA-1600, make sure that 3M logo on breathing tube and on half facepiece are both facing
towards you. For 3M™ Breathing Tubes SA-2500 or SA-2600, make sure that the 3M logo on breathing tube is facing in opposite direction to 3M
logo on half facepieces (Fig. 6). SA-1500/SA-2500 shown.
2. Twist each branch of breathing tube clockwise a quarter turn until it is firmly seated in the bayonet and cannot be turned further (Fig. 7 and 8). Do
not forcibly overturn as the bayonet could be damaged.
SA-1500/SA-2500 shown.
3. Attach airline to approved air regulators per pressure schedules in dual airline operator's manual.
Assembly of 3M™ Combination Dual Airline Breathing Tubes with Cartridges and/or Filters
The SA-1600 (front-mounted) and SA-2600 (back-mounted) versions of the 3M™ Dual Airline Breathing Tubes allow use of selected, NIOSH approved
3M™ Cartridges 6000 Series and Filters 2000 Series. For listing of approved cartridges and filters, reference NIOSH approval label included with
3M™ Dual Airline Breathing Tubes. To assemble dual airline breathing tubes with cartridges and/or filters, do the following:
1. Remove inhalation valves from facepiece and store them so they remain flat (Fig. 9).
2. Attach SA-1600 or SA-2600 breathing tubes to facepiece per the procedures outlined previously. The procedure is identical to the SA-1500 and
SA-2500 models.
3. Make a selection of cartridges and/or filters that meets your respiratory protection requirements, and attach to outer bayonets of SA-1600 or SA-
2600 Breathing Tubes (Fig. 10).
4. Don facepiece per procedures outlined in Fitting Instructions.
5. After being properly fit tested, perform a positive and negative pressure user seal check per procedures outlined in User Seal Check instructions.
If you cannot achieve a proper fit, DO NOT enter contaminated area. See your supervisor.
6. Attach airline to approved air regulators per pressure schedules in dual airline operator's manual.
IMPORTANT: If the facepiece is to be used in air-purifying mode (without using the SA-1600 or SA-2600 breathing tubes), the inhalation valves must
be replaced in the facepiece before use.
Using the 3M™ Combination Dual Airline Breathing Tubes without Cartridges or Filters
To use the 3M™ Breathing Tubes SA-1600 or SA-2600 without cartridges or filters, attach a 3M™ Bayonet Cap 6880 to each outer bayonet mount
on the breathing tube. When used as a Type C, continuous flow supplied air half facepiece respirator, the Assigned Protection Factor is 50 times the
PEL or other occupational exposure limit.

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Must be followed each time respirator is worn.
NOTE: Do not use with beards or other facial hair or other conditions that prevent a good seal between the face and the faceseal of the respirator. To
help maintain a seal between the face and the faceseal all hair, hoods, or other equipment must be kept out of respirator faceseal area at all times.
Donning Respirator
1. Place respirator over your mouth and nose, then pull head harness over crown of your head (Fig. 11).
2. Take bottom straps in both hands, place them in back of your neck, and hook them together (Fig. 12).
3. Position facepiece low on the bridge of your nose for optimal visibility and best fit.
4. Adjust top straps first, then lower neck straps by pulling on ends (Fig. 13). DO NOT pull too tight! (Strap tension may be decreased by pushing out
on back side of buckles.) Perform a positive pressure and/or negative pressure user seal check. The positive pressure method is recommended.
