ASSEMBLING THE GAS MASK
Attaching the Canister
Place canister(s) onto inlet port carefully. Align the cutouts on the canister with
the lugs on the connectors. Hand-tighten by turning clockwise to stops to
ensure a good seal against the facepiece. When using a single canister, an inlet
cap plug must be used on the facepiece connector opposite the canister.
Hand-tighten clockwise as directed with the canister.
Note: If using a thread adapter and threaded canister(s), the canister(s) must
seal against the gasket on the adapter. Hand-tighten the canister(s) clockwise
until tight. Refer to the facepiece component diagram to find the required can-
ister adapter parts.
USE OF INLET CAP PLUG
The design of the gas mask allows the use with a single canister on either the
right side or the left side of the facepiece. The receptacle on the side of the
facepiece opposite the mounted canister must be sealed off by an Inlet Cap
Plug. The Inlet Cap Plug must seal to the facepiece. Seal the cap onto the face-
piece by turning the cap clockwise onto the connector to stops.

and reposition the back of the harness. Make sure that the back of the har-
ness is positioned on the back of the head. If the mask does not become
