INSPECTION, CLEANING AND STORAGE
Respirators must be cleaned, disinfected, and inspected after each use. After such clean-
ing and inspection, the respirator must be stored in a clean dry area and reinspected during
preparation for use before it is used again.
The used air filtration elements must be removed from the respirator and disposed of as
directed in the DISPOSAL OF AIR FILTRATION ELEMENTS AND BATTERIES section of
this instruction.
NOTE
NONE OF THE COMPONENTS OF THIS RESPIRATOR MAY BE DISINFECTED USING
AN AUTOCLAVE.
Clean the respirator after each use as follows:
1.
Inspect the equipment for worn or aging rubber parts, worn or frayed harness
webbing or damaged components.
2.
Disconnect the breathing tube from the facepiece and from the blower assembly.
3.
Remove the 40mm adapter assembly from the facepiece. To remove the adapter, pull
the locking mechanism away from the facepiece and rotate the adapter 1/4 turn clock-
wise (viewed from inside of facepiece) and remove adapter from the facepiece.
4.
Carefully wash the blower assembly with a warm water solution (110° F/ 44° C maxi-
mum) containing a mild detergent.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE BLOWER ASSEMBLY.

soft cloth may be used for scrubbing extreme dirty areas. Clean breathing tube con-
nection and air filtration element mounts for dirt that could prevent an air tight seal.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
NOTE

SEMBLY MUST BE ALLOWED TO AIR DRY THOROUGHLY AND THEN TESTED WITH
THE AIRFLOW INDICATOR TO VERIFY THAT THE MOTOR WAS NOT DAMAGED.
5.
Carefully wash the inside and outside of the breathing tube assembly in a warm water
solution (110° F maximum) containing a mild detergent. Clean breathing tube connec-
tions for dirt that could prevent an air tight seal. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
