1. If the garment has been contaminated or is suspected of being
contaminated, the wearer should continue to use his respirator
until the garment has been doffed and removed.
2. An assistant should help the wearer doff the garment after
field decontamination. If the garment has been contaminated,
the assistant should wear protective clothing and respiratory
equipment.
3. While the wearer stands, the assistant should open the storm
flap and zipper closure, and then peel the garment down and
away from the wearer's shoulders. To prevent inner gloves from
inverting, grasp the fingers of both gloves while the other hand is
being removed. The assistant should help the wearer remove his
arms from the sleeves.
External airlines should be disconnected from the garment and
from the wearer's respirator, while the wearer switches to his
escape bottle.
4. Lower the garment below the hips and sit down. Have the
assistant remove the boots, pull the garment off the legs and
remove the garment to a remote location.
5. Once the garment has been removed, the wearer can doff the
respiratory face piece and harness.
