DO NOT wear eyeglasses under the face-

piece. The temples or sidebars on eye

glasses will prevent an air-tight seal. If

you must wear glasses, install an

approved spectacle kit listed on the

NIOSH approval matrix insert. Failure to

follow this warning can cause inhalation

of contaminated air, resulting in serious

respiratory injury or death.

Verify that the respirator is properly pre-

pared before donning. Check harness

headstraps for physical degradation.

Extreme tension to harness head straps

may cause damage. See Preparing the

Respirator for Use section. Failure to fol-

low this warning can result in serious

personal injury or death.

DONNING PROCEDURES

1. Loosen the harness head straps on the

facepiece so that the strap end tabs are

approximately 1” (inch) from the buckles.

2. With the facepiece

lens facing away,

grasp the temple

straps and neck straps

in each hand.

3. Slightly expand the

harness straps, place chin into the face-

piece, and pull the har-

ness over the back of

the head.

4. Support the weight of

the facepiece by hold-

ing the outlet valve assembly in the palm

of the hand, with the free hand; adjust

the facepiece securely to the face, mak-

ing sure the chin and nose are seated

securely.

5. While holding the facepiece securely in

position, tighten one temple strap at a

time by pulling straight back (not out)

with small jerks until facepiece feels

snug on that side. 

6. Tighten the other temple strap in same

manner until both

sides feel equally

secure.

7. Ensure facepiece is

centered on face by

looking down at the nosecup, it should

be uniform on each side of the face. If

not, readjust the temple straps.

Note:

Ensure that no hair is under the tabs

and sealing surface. Ensure the harness

tabs are flush to the face and not folded

under the facepiece seal. Also, the straps

should not cut into the ears. Extreme ten-

sion on the harness head straps may cause

damage.

8. Evenly tighten the

neck straps by pulling

them straight back.

9. Check that head pad is

centered in the middle

of the back of the

head.

10. If applicable, tighten the top straps for

best visibility and fit.

Note: 

The SpeeD-ON

Head Harness does not

have a top strap to tighten.
