WEARING
1.
Ensure that the facemask is clean
and
undamaged,
attention to the inhale and exhale valves;
and head harness.
2.
Ensure that the inhale valve frame
is present, in good condition and correctly
seated in the front fitting. Replace if
necessary.
3.
Check that the filter intended for
use is not clogged, saturated or time-
expired and is suitable for the hazards
that may be encountered. Fit a new filter if
necessary.
4.
Ensure that the filter is securely
fitted to the mask.
5.
Ensure that the visor is clear and
free from scratches or other abrasions
which could impair vision.
6.
Hang the mask around your neck
by the neckstrap, fully slacken the head
harness and remove the filter cover.
7.
Hold the head harness with the
thumbs inside the harness. Fit the chin
into the chin-cup and pull the harness
over the head. Gently tighten the harness
straps; lower first, then middle and finally
the top strap. A good seal should be
achieved without over-tightening, which
will distort the faceseal and cause
discomfort to the wearer.
8.
Check the mask seal to the face by
covering the filter inlet with a hand or the
filter blanking cover and inhaling. The
mask should pull onto the face. Hold your
breath for 10 seconds and check that the
mask seal is maintained over the 10
second period. If the seal fails, indicated
by the mask pulling away from the face,
check that the filter is properly fitted and
adjust the mask seal to the face, then
repeat the test. If it fails a second time,
the mask should be serviced.
WARNING:
If the mask does not seal correctly
after servicing, DO NOT use.
