Starting the Blower-Unit:
Activate the Power-Switch at the side of the unit (See Picture 7) . Initially the alarm will sound until the
motor reaches a speed and achieves a flow rate greater than the MMDF.After a few seconds the alarm
will switch off and the unit is safe to be used.
If this does not occur, the unit may require recharging or a new filter fitting.
Checking the Airflow:
With the Blower-Unit running place the Flow-Test-Unit onto the Blower-Unit so that the sealing gasket
is securely gripping the Air Outlet. (See Pictures 8 & 9.) Check that the indicator lever rises above the
red fail and into green pass sector. (See Picture 10.)

Donning the Blower Unit
:
Place belt around waist and fasten snap fit buckle. To adjust fit of belt pull free end away from the
Velcro fastening and pull through buckle. The belt should be tightened/loosened so that the blower unit
sits comfortably, usually at the small of the back. The free end of the belt should be flattened against
the Velcro fastening.
Attaching the Hose to the Blower Unit:

outlet of the blower. Push the Bayonet connector into the blower until it reaches the bottom of the hole
and then twist in a clockwise direction (See Picture 12.) until the locating pins clips into place
