Failure to follow these warnings AND INSTRUCTIONS could result in death or
serious injury.
Use strictly in accordance with instructions, labels and limitations pertaining to the
EVA/EVAHL/SALUS HC-series respirators.
1. This respirator does not supply oxygen. Use only in adequately ventilated areas
containing at least 19.5% oxygen.
2. Do not use when concentrations of contaminants are immediately dangerous to
life or health (IDLH), i.e. – one for which the wearer cannot escape without the
aid of a respirator without suffering injury either immediate or long term. See
29CFR 1910.134 (b).
3. Do not use this respirator for respiratory protection during abrasive blasting or
clean up.
4. Do not use in circumstances where the airborne concentration level of
contaminant exceeds maximum use concentration for this type of respirator as
established by regulatory standards.

a. Breathing becomes difficult
b. Dizziness or other distress occurs
c. You taste or smell the contaminant
d. Unit becomes damaged
e. Battery alarm activates

6. This apparatus must not be worn with the blower unit switched off. If the blower is
switched off, a rapid build-up of carbon dioxide and depletion of oxygen may
occur, which could result in death or serious injury.
7. Never alter or modify this respirator. Use only Bullard manufactured components
and replacement parts for use with this respirator. Failure to use Bullard
manufactured components and replacement parts, as listed on the NIOSH
approval label, voids NIOSH approval of the entire respirator, and invalidates all
Bullard warranties.
