Non drop-down application
The mask can be worn as a drop-down-mask or as a non drop-down mask, depending on the
harness setting.
To wear the mask in a non drop down position, take off the mask after donning it according to
“Donning the Mask“ on page 6 without opening the lever.
Cradle adjustment
An adjustment is necessary according to head sizes. Possible positions are “S” for size “S” and
“M/L” for masks in sizes “M” and “L”.
To adjust the cradle:
(1) Line up the end of the cradle with the desired size.
(2) Snap the buttons into place.
Tightness test
In order to check the facepiece-to-face tightness a leak test must be performed before each use.
(1) Detach the yoke from the mask.
(2) Fix the strap under both upper safety
confinements [keep lever closed].
(3) Pull the strap under both lower safety
confinements.
(4) Re-attach the yoke to the Advantage 400
[there has to be an audible click].
(5) Don the mask
The lever has no function when the mask is used as a non drop-down application.
Attention!
If any leakage is detected, correct before using the respiratory filtering device.
For persons with beards, long sideburns or scars passing under the seal it is unlikely
that a tight fit can be achieved.
