ACCESSORIES

Note:

If using the ClearCommand voice amplifier acces-

sory with the RI Connection, place the cable through the
lens opening of the hood and move the earphone toward
the lens of the facepiece. This will allow the lens opening
of the hood to slide over the ear phone and amplifier.

3. Expand and slide the

lens opening of the
hood over the canister
component. Ensure the
facepiece seal is main-
tained.

4. Using both hands,

grasp the back panel of
the hood and pull it
over the facepiece and
head. The lens opening
of the hood should
coincide with the lens
opening of the face-
piece. (If the situation
permits, another person
can assist with don-
ning).

5. Carefully tuck the elas-

tic lens opening of the
hood around the back
of the facepiece lens
rings, component hous-
ing assembly, and
applicable accessory.
The rain shield of the
hood should be uni-
formly over the upper
lens ring of the face-
piece. The elastic lens
opening should be in contact with the rubber surface
of the facepiece. Be sure to smooth out any wrinkles
or folds that might exist along the edge of the elastic.

6. Conduct a successful negative pressure seal test.

7. Attach each of the arm

straps to the front of
the hood shroud using
the Velcro attachment
pads. Adjust the arm
strap, using the buckle
slides, so that the arm
straps provide a snug
fit but still allow for
easy movement.

8. Tighten the draw string

cord by securing the
bottom of the cord and
sliding the cord tighter
toward the front of the
neck. The draw string
should provide a snug
comfortable fit. Ensure
draw string is not twist-
ed or knotted.

DO NOT over-tighten the draw string. Over tightening
the draw string can restrict breathing. Failure to follow
this warning can cause serious injury or death.

9. Pull the shroud of the

hood uniformly over the
shoulders.

10. Repeat the negative pressure seal test to ensure a

sufficient face-to-facepiece seal is achieved before
exposure to a hazardous agent. If using the
ClearCommand voice amplifier accessory with the RI
connection, reposition the ear phone closer to the ear.

SPARK COVER (RECOMMENDED FOR USE IN SPARK
ENVIRONMENTS)

1. Remove the canister and spark cover from the pack-

aging.

2. Attach the canister to the facepiece or breathing tube

depending on the configuration being used.
