5. Lower the inner shield into the down position, while keeping the outer shield, containing the ADF in the raised
position on top of the hardhat.
a. Pull down on the loop located on the outside of the faceseal to help ensure the faceseal is seated
under the chin. Ensure the inner shield is fully down and covering your face. The headgear should
sit level on your head with the faceseal gently hugging your face. If the faceseal feels loose, or has
any gaps, use the drawstrings and barrel clips in the temple region (Fig. 3) to tighten the faceseal to
remove any gaps in the faceseal; removing the headgear to accomplish this may be easier. The soft
cotton-like material on the edge of the faceseal should come into contact with the skin around the
entire faceseal perimeter.
6. If needed, adjust the airflow inside the headgear for wearing comfort. To adjust, raise the inner shield into
the raised (open) position. Locate the blue air deflector in the front of the headgear and rotate. Fig. 4 shows
where the air deflector is located and the air flow paths. There are two positions. Adjust fully open for more
airflow across the face or partially closed to re-direct a portion of the air towards the inner visor. After
adjusting the air deflector, lower the inner shield back into the down position.
NOTE: Do not adjust the air deflector while in a contaminated area.
7. Complete any final performance checks required according to the User Instructions for your PAPR or Supplied
Air Unit before entering a contaminated area.
