Fitting Instructions
Before assigning any respirator to be worn in a contaminated
area, we recommend that a qualitative or quantitative fit check be
performed before entering the workplace.
Fitting instructions must be followed each time the respirator is
worn.
1. Assemble/adjust head cradle by feeding the perforated strip
through the buckle and pressing down on the stud at the
required length. Repeat for second strip.
2. Place the respirator over the face, fitting it comfortably on
bridge of the nose, then pull the head harness over the crown
of the head.
3. If necessary remove the respirator and readjust the head
cradle to a comfortable fit and repeat step 2.
4. Take a bottom strap in each hand, place them at the back of
the neck and hook the straps together
5. Tighten the top head harness first by pulling on the ends to
achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Tighten bottom straps in
a similar manner. Strap tension may be decreased by pushing
