certain the facepiece, especially the face seal area,
is not distorted. The material must be pliable – not
stiff.
2. Examine the inhalation valves for cracks or tears.
Lift valves and inspect valve seat for dirt or cracks.
3. Ensure that the head straps are intact and have
good elasticity.
4. Examine all plastic parts for signs of cracks or
fatigue.
5. Make sure all gaskets are properly seated.
6. Remove the exhalation valve cover and examine
the exhalation valve and valve seat for signs of dirt,
distortion, cracks or tears. Replace the exhalation
valve cover.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
See appropriate User Instructions for assembly
instructions (e.g. 3M™ Filter/3M™ Air Supply Unit).
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Select most appropriate size from the 3 sizes of the
facepiece available (S / M / L). Fitting Instructions
must be followed each time the product is worn.
DONNING
1. Fully loosen all 4 head straps and put straps over
front of facepiece.
2. If necessary, pull hair back out of facepiece
sealing area.
3. Place chin in respirator chin cup and make sure
that respirator is centred on your face.
4. Pull head harness over your head (Figure 1).
Remove any bumps or kinks in the head harness
and ensure straps are flat to the head.
5. Whilst holding the mask in place with one hand,
tighten each strap evenly a little at a time, starting
the neck straps, followed by the forehead straps.
Repeat until the mask feels secure on the face.
(Figure 2). DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
6. Ensure that there are no creases or gaps around
facepiece perimeter. Figure 3 shows a poorly fitted
mask with creases around the face piece,
WARNING Such creases may impact fit. Use of a
mirror or the help of a colleague is recommended.
Readjust straps and/or reposition facepiece as
necessary.
Perform a positive and/or negative pressure seal
check.
SEAL CHECK
• Positive Pressure User Seal Check (for all
approved configurations) (all Filters except 3M™
6035 /6038/ 2000 Series Filters).
Place palm of hand over exhalation valve cover and
exhale gently. Figure 4.
If the facepiece bulges slightly and no air leaks are
detected between the face and the facepiece, a
proper seal has been obtained.
If an air leak is detected, reposition the respirator on
the face and / or re-adjust the tension of the elastic
strap to eliminate the leakage.
Repeat the above fit check.
• Negative Pressure User Seal Check with 6035 /
6038 Filters Also 2000 Series filters.
Press your thumbs into the central indentation of
the filters (2000 Series), or press filter cover and
filter body together (6035/38), inhale gently and
hold your breath for five to ten seconds. If the
facepiece collapses slightly a proper fit has been
achieved. Figure 5. If an air leak is detected,
reposition the respirator on the face and / or
re-adjust the tension of the elastic strap to eliminate
the leakage. Repeat the above fit check.
If you CANNOT achieve a proper fit, DO NOT
enter the contaminated area.
