INTRODUCTION
NightFighter HUD Transmitter have been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur-
suant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency and, if
not installed in accordance with instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause inter-
ference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and
the receiver
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dif-
ferent from that to which the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV techni-
cian for help.
The FireHawk M7 HUD or I-HUD, FireHawk M7 Control
Module, NightFighter HUD Transmitter, and FireHawk
M7 Power Module contain electrical parts which have
not been evaluated as an ignition source in flammable
or explosive atmospheres by MSHA/NIOSH.
1. Read and follow all NIOSH and other approval limi-
tations.
2. DO NOT use the carrier and harness assembly as a
vertical raising or lowering device.
3. DO NOT use the air mask as an underwater device.
4. This system must be supplied with respirable
[Quality Verification Level (Grade) D, see ANSI/CGA
G-7.1-1989] or higher quality air; and a dew point
not to exceed -65°F (24ppm v/v) [Compressed Gas
Association Specification G-7.1 for Quality
Verification Level (Grade) D Gaseous Air]. In fire
service applications, MSA recommends breathing
air quality in accordance with NFPA 1989.
5. This device may not seal properly with your face if
you have a beard, gross sideburns or similar physi-
cal characteristics (see NFPA-1500 and ANSI
Z88.2). An improper facial seal may allow contami-
nants to leak into the facepiece, reducing or elimi-
nating respiratory protection. Do not use this
device if such conditions exist. The face-to-face-
piece seal must be tested before each use. Never
remove the facepiece except in a safe, non-haz-
ardous, non-toxic atmosphere.
6. Return to a safe atmosphere immediately if discol-
oration, crazing, blistering, cracking, or other dete-
rioration of the facepiece lens material is
observed.
7. Users must wear suitable protective clothing and
precautions must be taken so that the air mask is
not exposed to atmospheres that may be harmful
to it.
8. Take into account the following factors which may
affect the duration or the service life.
a. the degree of physical activity of the user;
b. the physical condition of the user;
c. the degree that the user’s breathing rate is
increased by excitement, fear, or other emotional
factors;
d. the degree of training or experience which the
user has had with this or similar equipment;
e. whether or not the cylinder is fully charged;
f. the presence in the compressed air of carbon
dioxide concentrations greater than the .04%
level normally found in atmospheric air;
g. the atmospheric pressure; if used in a pressur-
ized tunnel or caisson at 2 atmospheres (15 psi
gauge) the duration will be one-half as long as
when used at 1 atmosphere; at 3 atmospheres
the duration will be one-third as long; the service
life of the air mask is based on 1 atmosphere of
pressure.
h. the condition of the air mask.
9. Prior to storage of the air mask at temperatures
below 0˚F, verify that the FireHawk M7 Power
Module and FireHawk M7 HUD or I-HUD are
equipped with full charge batteries. Verify that the
FireHawk M7 Control Module displays a full charge
battery status icon. Verify that the FireHawk M7
HUD or I-HUD do not display low battery status
indicators.
Misuse can result in serious injury or death.
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR RESPIRATOR USERS AND
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM
ADMINISTRATORS
1. An adequate respiratory protection program must
include knowledge of hazards, hazard assessment,
selection of proper respiratory protective equipment,
instruction and training in the use of equipment,
inspection and maintenance of equipment, and med-
ical surveillance. [See OSHA regulations, Title 29 CFR,
Part 1910.134 (c).]
2. This SCBA may be used only after proper instruction
and training in its use as specified in NFPA-1500 and
OSHA regulations Title 29 CFR, Part 1910.134.
3. Quantitative fit testing should be conducted to deter-
mine proper facepiece size prior to using the respira-
tor. A Fit Test Kit (MSA P/N 10044576) is available for
conducting quantitative fit tests with the Ultra Elite
Facepieces. The facepiece donning instructions must
be carefully followed when using the respirator and
when conducting fit tests.
